Fleischer Professor Emeritus of Art History George L. Mauner Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Art History Alfred A. Triolo Associate Professor Emeritus of Italian and Spanish Craig Zabel Associate Professor of Art History Head of the Department of Art History *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT This dissertation takes stock of what is known about Andrea Vaccaro (1604- 1670), one of the most prominent painters of Naples in the middle of the seventeenth- century. Although successful during his lifetime, Vaccaro currently suffers a reputation that is, at best, second rate. Due to the hundreds of paintings attributed to Vaccaro of dubious quality, modern art historians characterize his art as “eclectic” and “academic.” The sole monograph on Vaccaro, Maria Commodo Izzo’s Andrea Vacccaro pittore (1604-1670) published in 1951, is also sorely out of date. This study provides a new and more accurate portrayal of the artist. Rather than the customary all-inclusive approach, this study is based on the solid foundation of all known documents about the artist’s life and art, which are gathered and analyzed in one place for the first time.

FRANCIS XAVIER IN EUROPE AND ASIA Rachel Miller, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2016 Recent historical studies have focused on the vital role that Catholic saints played after the Council of Trent, investigating how these holy figures were utilized to alleviate all manner of problems besetting the Post-Tridentine Church, emerging European nation states, and individual Catholics. My dissertation, however, approaches this issue from an art historical perspective, considering how images of St. Francis Xavier, the sixteenth-century Jesuit missionary, exercised considerable agency in an early modern world rife with global crisis. Specifically, I investigate Xaverian prints and paintings created in border zones of early modern Catholicism or in territories of the Iberian empires, particularly Antwerp, Goa, and Naples.

  • Confraternal Gleanings from Post-Tridentine Piacenza: Bishop Paolo Burali D’Arezzo and the Confraternity of the Most Holy Sacrament
    Confraternal Gleanings from Post-Tridentine Piacenza: Bishop Paolo Burali d’Arezzo and the Confraternity of the Most Holy Sacrament Serena Quagliaroli1 Summary: This article focuses on the situation in the diocese of Piacenza during the episcopate of Paolo Burali d’Arezzo (r. 1568–1576) by placing his work within the post-Tridentine context. One of the most important objectives of the Church after the Council of Trent was the recovery of a closer relationship between the clergy and the faithful and it was pursued through the establishment and renewal of confraternities. In Piacenza, Bishop Burali encouraged the founding of many lay associations and took care to amend and revitalize existing ones, such as the Confraternity of the Most Holy Sacrament. For the one in the cathedral, documentary sources give us much useful information that allows us to speculate on the decorations (no longer extant) in the chapel dedicated to the Most Holy Sacrament executed by Giulio Mazzoni (1519–ca. 1590). Archival sources and local historical-artistical guidebooks allow us to propose a comparison between what Mazzoni achieved in Piacenza and Rome. This article offers a first glimpse into the situation in the diocese of Piacenza in the post-Tridentine period through an analysis of the city’s lay confraternities. The decision to use confraternities as privileged sub- jects of analysis is founded on the awareness of the growing importance that confraternity studies has enjoyed over the last few decades, espe- cially in the lively academic discussions carried

  • Artists, Patrons, and Trust in Seventeenth-Century Naples: the Case of the Certosa Di San Martino
    Artists, Patrons, and Trust in Seventeenth-Century Naples: The Case of the Certosa di San Martino J. Nicholas Napoli Introduction In his 1739 essay on commerce, “Del Commercio del Regno di Napoli,” presented as a letter addressed to Don Francesco Ventura, the newly appointed President of the Magistrate of Commerce under Charles of Bourbon, Paolo Mattia Doria reflected on the city’s economic development during the period of Spanish viceregal rule and suggested possibilities for present- day and future reform. He argued that the regime fostered several practices in the civil life of the kingdom—including usurious rates of interest, the inconsistent registration and enforcement of loans and contracts, and the resultant lawsuits of hopeless complexity and interminable duration—that fed widespread distrust of commerce in the realm.1 For Doria, trust in each of these exchanges was critical in establishing and maintaining commerce, and ultimately rendered civil life possible.2 In Lezioni di economia civile, Doria defined trust as the reciprocal confidence of one citizen in another. In terms of commerce, it was the voluntary participation in economic exchange made possible by freedom and security of contracts.3 Doria developed his thinking about trust in the academic circles of late seventeenth- century Naples where the Accademia degli Investiganti and the Accademia Medina Coeli fostered intellectual exchange and allowed for the dissemination of the emerging philosophical trends in Europe.4 As a member of the Accademia Medina Coeli, Doria presented and listened to papers, or lezioni, alongside Giuseppe Valletta, Luc’Antonio Porzio, and younger members who would become the most prominent thinkers in the Neapolitan Enlightenment, including Niccolò 1 Paolo Mattia Doria, “Del Commercio del Regno di Napoli,” Il Pensiero Civile di Paolo Mattia Doria negli Scritti Inediti, 1739, edited by Enrico Vidal (Milan: A Giuffrè Editore, 1953), 178-79, 205.

    The present guidebook was prepared for the International Workshop on Advanced Monitoring of Active Volcanoes. It reports information on the Partenopean volcanic area and illustrates the sites visited during the tour. The guidebook synthetically provides information on i) the major morphological and structural features of the volcanoes, ii) the deposits of the eruptions and their impact on the territory, iii) their present state and iv) the geophysical, petrologycal and geochemical networks operating at the Osservatorio Vesuviano. The tour will be devoted to illustrating the intimate relation among natural setting, archeology and urbanization of the high risk and deeply monitored Campi Flegrei and Vesuvius. It also presents the Osservatorio Vesuviano edifice that maintain the memory of the oldest volcanological observatory in the world and the earlier monitoring instruments. The refenceres used in this book will be useful to detail the knowlegde on the Campi Flegrei and Vesuvius volcanic area and to recover other interesting and more focused papers. This guidebook, finally, includes a list of churches and historical buildings, nearby the workshop location and that can be visited during your stay in Naples. Introduction Vesuvius and Campi Flegrei together with Ischia and Procida volcanoes are located in the Campanian Plain, (Fig 1). The Plain is a structural depression delimited by the Southern Apennines mountain chain to the east, south and north, and by the Tyrrhenian Sea, to the west. It is infilled by 2-3,000 m of Plio-Quaternary continental, deltaic, and marine sediments, intercalated with volcanic deposits, as detected by drilling and geophysical surveys (Piochi et al., 2005a and references therein).

  • A European View on Ruins in Naples and Messina During the 17Th and 18Th Centuries
    ArcHistoR anno V (2018) n. 9 A European View on Ruins in Naples and Messina during the 17th and 18th Centuries Massimo Visone [email protected] An analysis of iconography and a critical reading of sources allow to add new observations on the representation of cities in territories affected by the 1783 earthquake. The contribution aims to illustrate a slow cultural mutation and the symbolic, figurative meanings of this phenomenon. The philosophy of catastrophe puts the then prevailing optimism of reason into crisis and destroys the conviction that the present may be the best of all possible worlds. The Kingdom of Naples was one of the protagonists of that dynamism that pushed men to explore unusual territories along the Grand Tour route with the intent of acquiring new scientific tools of analysis. Southern Italy is a unique case in Europe due to the number of earthquakes during the modern age. In particular, the capital city, Naples, and Sicily were hit several times by earthquakes of varying intensity over a period from 1688 to 1783; that century was a fundamental passage in the history of earthquakes. AHR V (2018) n. 9 ISSN 2384-8898 DOI: 10.14633/AHR065 Uno sguardo dell’Europa sulle rovine a Napoli e Messina tra XVII e XVIII secolo Massimo Visone Nella lettera scritta da Francesco Petrarca al cardinale Giovanni Colonna, di cui si riporta un’ampia citazione, si legge la descrizione del terremoto e della tempesta che si verificò a Napoli il 25 novembre 1343, con ingenti danni alla città, in particolare nei quartieri bassi e nel porto.
