ANTONIO CANALETTO, Basin of San Marco from San Giorgio Maggiore, Venice Ca
Both the Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution began in the eighteenth century, and with them came the dominance of modern science. The Enlightenment Enlightenment (or “Age of Reason”): A movement in 18th century thought. Its central idea was the need for (and the capacity of) human reason to clear away ancient superstition, prejudice, dogma, and injustice. Enlightenment thinking encouraged rational scientific inquiry, humanitarian tolerance, and the idea of universal human rights. These thoughts mobilized a widespread dissatisfaction with contemporary social and political ills, and culminated with the American (1774-1783) and French (1789–1799) Revolutions. 3:31 – John Locke and Voltaire http://youtu.be/K7q5oT-X_PI Neoclassicism: mid 18th - mid 19th c. Relating to, or constituting a revival or adaptation of the classical style. It originated as a reaction to the Baroque and the sensuous and decorative Rococo style . Neoclassicism sought to revive the ideals of ancient Greek and Roman art. Neoclassic artists used classical forms to express their ideas about courage, sacrifice, and love of their country. Jacques-Louis David , Oath of the Horatii. 1784 The Grand Tour: The enlightenment had made knowledge of ancient Rome and Greece imperative, and a steady stream of Europeans and Americans traveled to major sites of southern Europe, especially Italy, in the 18th and early 19th c.

Educazione Ambientale – Istituzione Parco Laguna Corso didattico formativo LA LAGUNA DI VENEZIA: genesi, evoluzione, naturalità e salvaguardia - Anno 2008/2009 - LE ISOLE MINORI: UN PATRIMONIO DELLA STORIA ALLA DERIVA DEL PRESENTE Elisabetta Vulcano (Architetto) LE ISOLE MAGGIORI Giudecca La Giudecca, che consiste in una sottile e stretta striscia di terra leggermente arcuata, si affaccia sull’omonimo canale e si snoda lungo il Sestiere di Dorsoduro, da Santa Marta alla Punta della Dogana. Un tempo ricca di orti, frutteti e giardini, la Giudecca era meta preferita dei patrizi veneziani prima dei lunghi viaggi verso la Brenta. San Giorgio Maggiore Coltivata ad orti e vigneti, ai tempi dei dogi Partecipazio, l’isola di San Giorgio Maggiore è famosa per una salina, un mulino e una chiesetta titolata a San Giorgio Maggiore , per distinguerla da quella già esistente nell’isola di San Giorgio in Alga . IL SISTEMA DIFENSIVO LAGUNARE Ottagoni – Batterie – Polveriere - Ridotti Nel 1571 Giulio Savorgnan termina un lungo viaggio dedicato allo studio delle fortificazioni dei porti nei mari Adriatico ed Egeo. Ritornato a Venezia pianifica con i Provveditori alle Fortezze, la riorganizzazione delle difese delle bocche di porto della città per far fronte alle incursioni turche che si erano spinte fino alle coste dalmate. Per scongiurare il pericolo turco vengono erette tra il XVIII e il XIX secolo piccole isole artificiali, circondate da bassi fondali, chiamate ottagoni, batterie e ridotti . Le nuove fortificazioni sorgevano in posizioni strategiche, di fronte alle bocche di porto e presidiavano le principali vie d’acqua di accesso alla città.

Treasures of Milan and Venice 31 March 2019 River Countess
Treasures of Milan and Venice 31 March 2019 River Countess Uniworld Waterways As Rudy Bolasko from Cruise Critic says, "A cruise on the Po River is not like other European river cruises. Uniworld's new itinerary has fewer ports and more coach trips, and half the week is spent in one city. But when that one city is Venice, and you've got a room on the waterfront, who's complaining? River Countess passengers also benefit from some very valuable perks, including queue-skipping and after-hours viewings of main attractions, private water-taxi transfers and scenic cruising around the Venetian Lagoon. For the four excursions accessed by road, the driving time is only one to two hours and well worth the trip to see some wonderful inland destinations, such as Verona and Bologna. The lack of sailing days might even suit couples who can't agree whether to do Italy by boat or bus, or if one partner is not as fanatical about cruising. Only a couple of other European companies (CroisiEurope and European Waterways) offer Po river cruises. Uniworld's offering is the most luxurious." Treasures of Milan and Venice sails 31 March 2019. The itinerary visits Milan, Verona, Venice, Padua, Bologna, Ferrara, Chioggia, Burano, Torcello and of course Venice for the most part. You are actually in a floating boutique hotel with day trips out to other areas of the region. A full itinerary is included at the end of this email. There are 4 categories available. If you do not wish to go to Milan, deduct $600 from the prices below.

San Servolo Summer School Advanced Epilepsy Summer Courses San Servolo Island, Venice (Italy), July/August
San Servolo Summer School Advanced Epilepsy Summer Courses San Servolo island, Venice (Italy), July/August Epilepsy School Director Marco de Curtis ISNV Director Francesco Paladin ISNV President Giuliano Avanzini Epilepsy Course Secretariat Metella Paterlini [email protected] ISNV web site http://www.isnvenice.com/ http://www.facebook.com/pages/Epilepsy-Summer-Course-San-Servolo-Venice/269248666492328 Introduction to the Courses The idea of an Epilepsy Summer Course was conceived in 2001 by a founding committee composed by Giuliano Avanzini, Marco de Curtis, Francesco Paladin, Yehezkel Ben Ari, Pete Engel, Uwe Heinemann, Istvan Mody, Nico Moshe, Tim Pedley, and Peter Wolf, under the patronage of the International School of Neurological Sciences in Venice (ISNV) affiliated to the Venice International University (VIU). The training Courses primarily aimed at young researchers and clinicians with an established interest in epileptology. The first Course on Bridging basic with clinical epileptology was held in the summer 2002 at the ISNV didactic facilities located on the San Servolo island, a location ideally suited for residential courses. The students had free access to didactic material under the supervision of the tutors. The strong commitment of the outstanding faculty and the motivation of the trainees contributed to the great success of the Course, thus prompting the ISNV to recognize the Epilepsy Summer Course as an important yearly educational event. The success of the research project elaboration by the students encouraged us to make this the core of the Course program that followed since 2002. The Epilepsy Summer School has been given a permanent organization under the supervision of a Scientific Committee composed by Giuliano Avanzini (ISNV President), Francesco Paladin (ISNV Director), Marco de Curtis (Epilepsy Summer School Director), and two Course Directors.

Today, there are some forth-four surviving palaces, villas, and churches by the master. These buildings have profoundly moved the imagination of countless generations of academics, artists, and architects for over four hundred years. Without a doubt, he has been the most exalted and emulated architect in modern history.
