  • Manoscritti Della Biblioteca “Bartoliniana” Dell’Arcidiocesi Di Udine
    Manoscritti della Biblioteca Bartoliniana MANOSCRITTI DELLA BIBLIOTECA “BARTOLINIANA” DELL’ARCIDIOCESI DI UDINE INVENTARIO Inventariazione realizzata da Luca Olivo nel 2011 per conto dell’Archivio Storico Diocesano di Udine a cura dell’Istituto “Pio Paschini” per la Storia della Chiesa in Friuli 1 Manoscritti della Biblioteca Bartoliniana Il conte Antonio Bartolini1 appartenne ad una delle più insigni famiglie nobiliari friulane, di antica schiatta fiorentina. A Firenze infatti gli avi del conte Antonio ricoprirono varie cariche pubbliche ma pare la loro origine fosse quella di mugnai. I Bartolini si trasferirono in Friuli nella prima metà del Trecento e già nel 1518 erano annoverati nel Libro d’oro della nobiltà come conti. Nel corso del Settecento la famiglia riuscì ad acquisire notevoli fortune grazie ad una redditizia attività di possidenti agrari con varie tenute, soprattutto a Buttrio. Agronomo fu il padre di Antonio Bartolini, Ettore. Questi nel 1737 sposò Francesca Manin, appartenente alla prestigiosissima casata. Il matrimonio era avvenuto nel quadro di una specifica strategia di alleanze tra famiglie nobili e nell’intento di dare ulteriore lustro ai Bartolini, le cui fortune nel campo dell’imprenditoria agraria potevano gettare ombre sul loro grado di nobiltà. Antonio Bartolini nacque a Udine il 12 settembre 1741 e già all’età di 6 anni rimase orfano di madre, essendo in quell’anno deceduta Francesca Bartolini Manin all’età di soli 38 anni. Difficile stabilire con certezza la formazione di Antonio ma dato che il fratello maggiore Gregorio (1738 – 1828) e il fratellastro minore Giovanni Battista (1754 – 1823) studiarono al Collegio dei Barnabiti di Udine pare possibile che anche il giovane conte fosse stato colà indirizzato dal padre.

  • Time to Move on After 5 Years in the Mediterranean
    Time to move on after 5 years in the Mediterranean Roland & Consie Lennox-King In 2015 it was our plan to sail from Greece through the western Mediterranean and leave Restless ready to sail across the Atlantic to the USA in the New Year. But plans change, and ours did. After completing all the pre-launching jobs, and getting our Greek Transit Log renewed for six months, our friend David joined us from Scotland. We launched Restless in Preveza, west Greece, and motored into the Gulf of Amvrakikos, stopping at different bays each night, we walked Genoa Portofino La Grazie Restless 51ft S&S ketch Elba Cervione CORSICA ITALY Porto Cervo Olbia Porto Brandinghi ALBANIA Capo Comino Cala Gonone Orthoni SARDINIA Arbatax Leuca Corfu GREECE Cala Pira Paxos Cagliari Crotone Prevaza AEOLIAN IS Roccella Ionica SICILY Syracuse GOZO TUNISIA MALTA to the local markets and churches and climbed up to the ruins of fortresses. 6 May - We left the Gulf and motor-sailed to Antipaxos and a bay with some of the bluest water in the Mediterranean, attracting huge numbers 148 Time to move on of tourists. We carried on to Paxos, an island with several picturesque villages along its shores, and sailed to Mongonisi, Gaios, Longos and Lakka. Then we hired a car and drove around the island, famous for its ancient olive trees, and the best quality olives that are sold in Harrods. We motor-sailed 28nm across to Corfu Yacht Club, where David left us, with many thunderstorms rolling around. We provisioned in Corfu town, ready for our trip across to Italy, but family medical problems in Sydney kept us close to the phone and internet for a few days.

  • Cinque Terre
    Cinque Terre Welcome to the ItalianCoast Cinque Terre, which translates to “the five lands,” is one of the most dramatic sites along the Italian Rivera. Once brushed aside as a fly over destination, the five villages that comprise this medieval-era coast – Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore – are now a top vacation spot for anyone looking for an old-world Italian experience. The ancient villages, the first of which was founded 643 AD, and the surrounding hillsides are all part of the Cinque Terre National Park and were declared a Unesco World Heritage site in 1997. Your colorful, coastal adventure begins with a flight into your designated airport, where ground transportation will whisk you away to become acquainted with your yacht and crew. Once guests have settled in, the real fun begins with the first stop on your luxury private cruise: Monterosso al Mare. The rugged terrain of this quiet seaside escape will leave all in awe. Whether you choose to spend your time admiring historic cas- tles or the lively, local churches; wandering the narrow streets while staring up at the vernacular, vibrant architecture; jumping into a popular swimming hole with the local; snorkeling reefs teeming with life; or simply shopping till you drop – you’ll find yourself wishing the adventure will never end! Monterosso al Mare You’ll find Monterosso al Mare located at the center of a natural gulf, which is protected by a small artificial reef. The village is divided into two distinctive parts: old town and new town, which are split by a single tunnel that was built in 1870.

  • Genoa and the Cinque Terre
    AETAS VIAGGI – TEL. + 39 06 71 58 40 64 – [email protected] – www.aetasviaggi.com GENOA AND THE CINQUE TERRE The Cinque Terre is a rugged portion of coast on the Italian Riviera. It is in the Liguria region of Italy, to the west of the city of La Spezia, and comprises five villages: Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore. The coastline, the five villages, and the surrounding hillsides are all part of the Cinque Terre National Park and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Over the centuries, people have carefully built terraces on the rugged, steep landscape right up to the cliffs that overlook the sea. Part of its charm is the lack of visible corporate development. Paths, trains and boats connect the villages, and cars cannot reach them from the outside. The Cinque Terre area is a very popular tourist destination. Day 1: Arrival in Genoa. Guided tour of the historical center: the Romanesque-Gothic Church of S. Lorenzo, with its beautiful interior frescoes and the famous chapel of the Baptist, Piazza De Ferrari with the Opera House and the Academy of Fine Arts, the Church of Jesus, a fine example of Baroque, including works by Rubens and Guido Reni, the Ducal Palace, seat of the city government, now used as a major art exhibitions. A short climb leads to the Medieval Gates and the House of Columbus. A few steps away we find the noble Piazza S. Matteo with palaces now included in the lists of the UNESCO heritage of humanity. Continue to Piazza Campetto and Via degli Orefici, full of old shops and bakeries, to reach Piazza Banchi, dominated by the characteristic Church of S.
