Insieme a Bancheri e a Nuessel si è fatto molto per definire il convegno in programma ad Erice che dalle partecipazioni si presenta stimolante e interessante. Stiamo anche per dar inizio alla votazione per apportare dei cambiamenti alla costituzione e per nominare nuovi Regional Representatives e prego tutti gli iscritti di partecipare. Colgo l’occasione di ringraziare tutti i Regional Representatives uscenti per l’ottimo lavoro svolto.

Jewitt, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2014 Landscape painting assumed a new prominence in Venetian painting between the late fifteenth to early sixteenth century: this study aims to understand why and how this happened. It begins by redefining the conception of landscape in Renaissance Italy and then examines several ambitious easel paintings produced by major Venetian painters, beginning with Giovanni Bellini’s (c.1431- 36-1516) St. Francis in the Desert (c.1475), that give landscape a far more significant role than previously seen in comparable commissions by their peers, or even in their own work. After an introductory chapter reconsidering all previous hypotheses regarding Venetian painters’ reputations as accomplished landscape painters, it is divided into four chronologically arranged case study chapters.

  • When the Rabbi's Soul Entered a Pig: Melchiorre Palontrotti and His
    Jewish History (2020) 33: 351–375 © The Author(s) 2020 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10835-020-09367-y When the Rabbi’s Soul Entered a Pig: Melchiorre Palontrotti and His Giudiata against the Jews of Rome MARTINA MAMPIERI Lichtenberg-Kolleg, Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Göttingen, Germany E-mail: martina.mampieri@gmail.com Abstract This essay analyzes an unpublished manuscript of a giudiata, a poem mocking Jew- ish funerals that was written and performed in Rome in the mid-seventeenth century. Mel- chiorre Palontrotti, the author of the composition, was a Roman polemist and author of other published works against Italian Jews, including, among others, the Venetian rabbi Simone Luzzatto, between 1640 and 1649. After furnishing information on the author and the histor- ical background in which the song was written, and following an analysis of the origins of giudiate and their diffusion in early modern Rome, this paper explores the content, language, and style of the giudiata text. The appendix includes a bibliography of Palontrotti’s writings and a transcription of the manuscript. Keywords Jewish-Christian Relations · Jewish History · Anti-Jewish Polemics · Early Modern Polemics · Seventeenth Century · Rome In the rich manuscript collection belonging to Giovanni Pastrizio (ca. 1636– 1708),1 a lecturer in theology at the Collegio Urbano de Propaganda Fide and scriptor hebraicus at the Vatican Library from 1695, there is a brief but extremely interesting rhymed composition.2 This text, handwritten by Pas- trizio, consists of a canzone contro gli ebrei (“song against the Jews”) in 1On Pastrizio, also known as Ivan Paštric,ˇ and his activity in Rome from the first half of the seventeenth century until his death, see Notizie istoriche degli Arcadi morti, tomo secondo, in Roma, nella Stamperia di Antonio de Rossi, 1720, f.
