Florence attracts millions of tourists every year and has been declared a World Heritage Site due to the fact that it represents a masterpiece of human creative genius + other 4 selection criteria. 2) Piazza dei Miracoli, Pisa. It was declared a Unesco World Heritage Site in 1987 and is basically a wide walled area, partially paved and partially covered by grass, dominated by 4 great religious buildings: the Duomo, the Leaning Tower, the Baptistry and the Camposanto. 3) San Gimignano has been a World Heritage Site since 1990 and is considered the emblem of medieval Tuscany.

Parte Seconda La Città Rinascimentale E La Città Ideale Nascita Delle Città Ideale
FILOMENA MASELLA – ALESSIO BUONOCUNTO PARTE SECONDA LA CITTÀ RINASCIMENTALE E LA CITTÀ IDEALE NASCITA DELLE CITTÀ IDEALE In Europa, verso fine 1300/inizio 1400, ci fu uno straordinario sviluppo urbano che caratterizzò molte città europee dell’epoca. Ma a causa di una grande crisi iniziata nel XIV secolo, questo sviluppo subì una brusca interruzione: la peste nera del 1348 aveva causato una profonda depressione economica e un decremento demografico. Tuttavia, l’urbanistica fu un tema molto appassionante per le corti del rinascimento; infatti molti signori volevano creare delle vere e proprie realtà urbane, ordinate e efficienti, a norme di funzionalità che superassero lo stile medievale. ARCHITETTI DELL’EPOCA Tra i famosi architetti dell’epoca rinascimentale fu senza dubbio Antonio Averulino, detto «Filarete». A lui si deve la progettazione della città immaginaria di Sforzinda nel suo «trattato di architettura» e Francesco di Giorgio Martini che proponse un repertorio di forme simmetriche e rigorose da dare alle città, tenendo conto delle nuove esigenze di difesa. Oltre a loro, anche gli architetti Sebastiano Serlio, Andrea Palladio e Vincenzo Scamozzi affrontano il tema della città definita geometricamente. URBANISTICA RINASCIMENTALE Il tratto principale dell’architettura rinascimentale fu quello di dare una forma alla città. L’idea principale era quella di dare alla citta una forma ordinata e razionale. Tra le novità della nuova urbanistica vi sono le «città-fortezza», ovvero città fortificate con nuovi sistemi difensivi. Alcuni esempi sono Palmanova, Casertavecchia, Urbino, Ferrara, Terra del Sole, e Sabbioneta. Nelle concrete realizzazioni emerge, prima in Italia e poi in Europa, la necessità di vie più larghe e spazi pubblici regolari e la ricerca di simmetria e di decoro urbano.

Course Syllabus: “The Glory of the Renaissance”
Course Syllabus: “The Glory of the Renaissance” Long title: “The Glory of the Renaissance: How Music, Painting and Architecture Thrived at the Nexus of Spiritual, Political and Intellectual Power in Fifteenth- Century Italy” LS 770-73 Summer 2017 Thomas Brothers, Professor of Music 071 Mary Duke Biddle Dept. of Music [email protected]/Office hours by appointment “The disciplines are interconnected, and a person cannot master one unless he seeks light from another.” Aeneas Silvius Piccolomini, 1450. Course overview You can lose yourself in the magnificent Duomo of Florence, completed by the great fifteenth-century architect, Filippo Brunelleschi. You can also lose yourself in a painting by Piero della Francesca, or in Guillaume Dufay’s brilliant music for the Catholic liturgy, pieces like the Missa Se la face ay pale—lose yourself in the sense of tasting a vast and brilliant world that leaves the petty concerns of day-to-day life behind. Fifteenth-century Italy enjoyed a strong tradition of art designed with this in mind. Composers, painters and architects used the full range of intellectual and emotional power available to them to create a transcendent world, and they did so through the patronage of powerful people who expected something in return. That is how the themes of art, spirituality, intellectual inquiry and politics intersect, and that is how some of the greatest art in the European tradition was created. Much of it is still around for us to enjoy and understand today. This course covers music, painting, architecture, religion and politics in the 15th Century, primarily in Florence and Rome.
