  • Pelagio Palagi's Floating Castles: 'Risorgimental Neo-Medievalism
    $UFKLWHFWXUDO Zerbi, T. 2021. Pelagio Palagi’s Floating Castles: ‘Risorgimental Neo-Medievalism’, Architectural Ephemera, and Politics at the Court of Savoy. Architectural +LVWRULHV Histories, 9(1): 1, pp. 1–17. DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/ah.462 RESEARCH ARTICLE Pelagio Palagi’s Floating Castles: ‘Risorgimental Neo-Medievalism’, Architectural Ephemera, and Politics at the Court of Savoy Tommaso Zerbi In 1842, the court artist Pelagio Palagi (1775–1860) devised four temporary floating castles on the river Po for the remarkable urban celebrations for the nuptials of His Royal Highness Victor Emmanuel of Savoy- Carignan (1820–1878) to Her Imperial and Royal Highness Maria Adelaide of Habsburg (1822–1855) in Turin. The structures formed the central pieces of a broad medievalist programme that, during the reign of Charles Albert of Savoy-Carignan (1831–1849), brought the Middle Ages back to life in the Kingdom of Piedmont-Sardinia. Challenging the classicised image of the Sabaudian monarchy, this article insists that neo-medieval architecture and the architectural style that I call ‘Risorgimental neo-medievalism’ mirrored a calibrated medievalist and royalist strategy against the background of Italy’s ‘resurgence’. Counter- ing recurrent biases that read Italian revivalist architecture as an exercise in taste, it discusses Palagi’s designs as the tools of a political reworking of the Middle Ages, in open dialogue with the disciplines of architectural history and medievalism studies. By reading the urban festivities staged in the capital as a strategically orchestrated political act, this article assesses the medievalist initiatives, culminating in the spectacle on the river Po, as propagandistic vehicles to convey meaning to a vast public, which underscore the role of medievalist rhetoric in challenging the dominant classicist iconography and forging the ‘iden- tity’ of the modern Sabaudian nation.

  • Umberto II (The Shroud During the Centuries in Humbert II’S Collection), Gribaudo, Turin, 1998, Pp
    On March 18, 1983 Humbert II of Savoy died in Geneva. The most solemn obsequies took place on March 24 in Hautecombe abbey, in Savoy, where the body had been transferred privately. The announcement of the Holy Shroud donation to the Holy See in the person of the present Pope John Paul II was given in Geneva on March 25, 1983 by the lawyer Armando Radice, who read the following communiqué: “On March 23, the Count Fausto Solaro del Borgo has given to His Most Reverend Eminence, cardinal Agostino Casaroli, His Holiness’ Secretary of State, a letter of His Majesty Humbert II’s testamentary executors, His Majesty Simeon of Bulgaria and His Royal Highness the Landgrave Mauritius of Assia, by which they begged him to inform His Holiness John Paul II, that the late Monarch had ordered, in his last will and testament, that the Holy Shroud, kept in the Cathedral of Turin, was given in full property to the Supreme Pontiff. His Royal Highness, the Prince of Naples, also on behalf of his entire family, has expressed the joy of being able, respecting his august father’s will – which aims at definitively guaranteeing for the future the entrusting of one of the most precious relics of Our Lord’s Passion to the Holy See – to fulfil a devotion gesture towards the person of the Roman Church Supreme Pontiff. The Prince of Naples has decided that the late Monarch’s will could be communicated to His Holiness John Paul II on the eve of the Holy Year’s opening.” Here is the original text of the donation document as it was published by the Princess Maria Gabriella of Savoy in the book La Sindone nei secoli nella collezione di Umberto II (The Shroud during the centuries in Humbert II’s collection), Gribaudo, Turin, 1998, pp.

  • THE DONATION of the SHROUD to the HOLY SEE by Luigi FOSSATI - Historian (From “Collegamento Pro Sindone” - November/December 1996)
    THE DONATION OF THE SHROUD TO THE HOLY SEE by Luigi FOSSATI - Historian (from “Collegamento pro Sindone” - November/December 1996) On March 18th ex King Umberto II of Savoy died in Geneva (Switzerland) and immediately more or less truthful news spread about his testamentary dispositions. The newspapers of those days were full of information also about the future destination of the Holy Shroud, private property of that family. The present article, more than describing the official events, quotes the official documents of the donation to the Holy See and of the appointment as Pontifical Custodian of the Shroud for the pro-tempore archbishop of Turin. The solemn obsequies took place on March 24th in Hautecombe Abbey1, where the body was privately transferred. The announcement of the Holy Shroud donation to the Holy See in the person of the pontifical sovereign John Paul II was made on March 25th 1983 in Geneva from the lawyer Armando Radice who read the following statement: “In data 23 marzo, il conte Fausto Solaro del Borgo ha consegnato a sua eminenza reverendissima il Cardinale Agostino Casaroli, segretario di stato di Sua Santita’, una lettera degli esecutori testamentari di Sua Maesta’ Umberto II, Sua Maesta’ Simeone di Bulgaria e Sua Altezza Reale il Langravio Maurizio d’Assia, con la quale lo pregavano di informare sua Santita’ Giovanni Paolo II che il defunto Sovrano aveva disposto tra le sue ultime volonta’ che la Santa Sindone conservata nel Duomo di Torino venisse offerta in piena proprieta’ al Sommo Pontefice. Sua Altezza Reale il Principe di Napoli, anche a nome dell’intera famiglia ha espresso la gioia di potere, rispettando la volonta’ dell’augusto genitore - che e’ intesa a garantire per il futuro definitivamente l’affidamento alla Santa Sede di una delle reliquie piu’ insigni della Passione di Nostro Signore - compiere un gesto di devozione verso la persona del Sommo Pontefice della Chiesa romana.

GILLET (1813-1892), REDEMPTORIST IN IMMIGRANT AMERICA, FOUNDER OF WOMEN RELIGIOUS, CISTERCIAN MONK (*) AN OVERVIEW The year 2013 marks the two-hundredth anniversary of the birth of Louis Florent Gillet, Frontier Redemptorist missionary in America, founder of a major group of Religious Sisters, and eventually a beloved Cistercian Monk. Technically he came into the world a French subject. For when he was born in Antwerp on January 13, 1813, Napoleon’s empire still reached into the Low Countries. Belgium was still seventeen years away from realizing independence. Gillet was the eighth novice in the history of the Redemp- torists of Belgium. In 1843, when he had been professed for eight years and ordained for five, he was chosen to serve in the mission of America. There, as his many confrères were minister- ing to German immigrants, Gillet’s explicit dream was for the Redemptorists to have a “French foundation.” With the blessing of superiors, he saw this dream come to life in the state of Mich- igan, in the upper portion of the midwestern United States. But the foundation had a short lifespan. Huge misunderstandings between Gillet and his Redemptorist superiors developed, but not before he had founded (or co-founded) 1 the distinguished group of women religious who continue to this day.

  • Kingdoms of France and Germany
    Kingdoms of France and Germany Collapse of the Frankish Empire In 943 the grandsons of Charlemagne divided the Frankish Empire into three separate kingdoms. This division, however, was a result of a civil war among the descendants of Charlemagne that involved not only his grandsons, but powerful nobles who controlled important duchies with the Frankish domains. The treaty did not resolve conflicts or lead to a stable division of powers, and the century following the dissolution of the Frankish Empire was one of the most turbulent in the history of Europe. In West Franconia, the Carolingian kings following the division of the Empire were weak and unable to resist the Norse raiders that threatened the coasts and waterways. The influence of the central government diminished and in 888, the nobles elected a respected baron rather than a direct descendent of Charlemagne to the throne. But in centuries following, neither elected nor hereditary kings were able to restore the former influence of the Frankish king. The kingdom of Middle Franconia was created with indefensible borders, and did not survive the death of its first king. The region quickly dissolved into independent states of Lorraine, Burgundy, and Lombardy, provinces that retained much influence during the Middle Ages, but as Duchies rather than kingdoms. In the German kingdom in the east, descendants of Charlemagne continued to rule until the early tenth century, but as in the West, the king of the Germans had limited influence over his nobles. The Eastern most provinces had only converted to Christianity and been incorporated into the Frankish empire for a few generations.
