  • Multicultural Exchange in the Norman Palaces of Twelfth
    A Changing Mosaic: Multicultural Exchange in the Norman Palaces of Twelfth-Century Sicily by Dana Katz A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Art University of Toronto © Copyright by Dana Katz 2016 A Changing Mosaic: Multicultural Exchange in the Norman Palaces of Twelfth-Century Sicily by Dana Katz Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Art University of Toronto 2016 Abstract This dissertation examines the twelfth-century residences associated with the Norman Hautevilles in the parklands that surrounded their capital at Palermo. One of the best-preserved ensembles of medieval secular architecture, the principal monuments are the palaces of La Zisa and La Cuba, the complexes of La Favara and Lo Scibene, the hunting lodge at Parco, and the palace at Monreale. The Norman conquest of Sicily in the previous century dramatically altered the local population’s religious and cultural identity. Nevertheless, an Islamic legacy persisted in the park architecture, arranged on axial plans with waterworks and ornamented with muqarnas vaults. By this time, the last Norman king, William II, and his court became aligned with contemporaries in the Latin West, and Muslims became marginalized in Sicily. Part One examines the modern “discovery” and reception of the twelfth-century palaces. As secular examples built in an Islamic mode, they did not fit preconceived paradigms of medieval Western architecture in the scholarly literature, greatly endangering their preservation. My examination reconstructs the vast landscape created by the Norman kings, who modified their surroundings on a monumental scale. Water in the parklands was harnessed to provide for ii artificial lakes and other waterscapes onto which the built environment was sited.

  • Mixed-Media Domestic Ensembles in Roman Sicily: the House of Leda at Soluntum
    arts Article Mixed-Media Domestic Ensembles in Roman Sicily: The House of Leda at Soluntum Nicole Berlin Department of the History of Art, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD 21218, USA; [email protected] Received: 28 February 2019; Accepted: 26 April 2019; Published: 14 May 2019 Abstract: Built in the second to early-first century BCE, the House of Leda at Soluntum, a city on the northwest coast of Sicily, was renovated in the first century CE. The most prominent change to the residence was the inclusion of figural Fourth-Style wall paintings in its dining room. The fresco ensemble reveals a particular interest in the painted depiction of stone, such as an image of Leda and the swan as a marble statue and trompe l’oeil blocks of colored marble and granite from around the Mediterranean. The house renovation was not wholesale since the owner also chose to preserve a number of decorative elements from the earlier, Hellenistic-era phase of the residence, including two sculptures, cut-limestone pavements, and an intricate mosaic of an astronomical instrument. In this article I argue that the tension created between the medium of paint, and its use to mimic marble and stone, resulted in a unified, mixed-media domestic ensemble. The viewer was encouraged to compare and contrast the faux marble and stone in the dining room’s Fourth-Style frescoes with the Hellenistic-era marble and stone artworks throughout the rest of the house. This juxtaposition of older and newer decorative elements reveals that the owner of the House of Leda positioned himself as both a member of the Roman provincial elite as well as a local benefactor and custodian of Sicily’s rich Hellenistic culture.

  • Syracusan Settlement Expansion in South-Eastern Sicily in the Archaic Period
    Syracusan Settlement Expansion in South-Eastern Sicily in the Archaic Period Jerrad Lancaster Royal Holloway, University of London Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 1 Declaration of Authorship I, Jerrad Lancaster, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: ___________________________ Date: _____________________________ 2 Abstract During the Archaic period Syracuse grew from a newly established colony to become a colonial power itself and its hegemony spread across the south-east part of Sicily. The motivations behind the expansion process and the foundation of multiple new settlements is the central theme of this thesis. The most notable are Heloros (late eighth century BC), Akrai (664 BC), Kasmenai (644 BC) and Kamarina (599 BC). The traditional interpretation behind this expansion is based on ancient literary sources and it stresses military intentions of Syracuse. However, even though the foundations did have a strategic motivation behind them, more central was the desire for wealth accumulation through access to new agricultural land and creation of an inland trade route. The aim of the methodologies (architectural energetics, population estimates and degrees of primacy) used in the thesis is to build a clearer picture of the settlements at key stages of their development from foundation to the end of Archaic period. Architectural energetics is used to estimate the comparative labour costs of building each settlement. Assessment of the architectural development of each site also supports the non-military motivation behind their foundation.

Santagati Iniziò quel giorno il Medioevo in Sicilia ed un conflitto che sarebbe durato un secolo e mezzo e che vide contrapposti, Luigi almeno all’inizio, dei predoni assetati di bottino contro un Storia dei popolo tenace, certo bizantino ed in parte ancora romano ma soprattutto siciliano, che difese col sangue ogni palmo della propria terra. Bizantini di Sicilia Dopo 1091 anni (dal 264 a.C. sino all’827) s’interrompeva così il più lungo periodo di pace che una nazione abbia mai goduto nella storia dell’Occidente.

  • In-Situ Investigations for Structural Assessment of Temple C in Selinunte (Italy)
    Historical Constructions, P.B. Lourenço, P. Roca (Eds.), Guimarães, 2001 479 In-situ investigations for structural assessment of Temple C in Selinunte (Italy) Giovanni Fabbrocino, Gaetano Manfredi and Elio Giangreco University of Naples Federico II, Department of Structural Analysis and Design, Naples, Italy ABSTRACT: Preservation of archaeological handmade is a very relevant task for structural en- gineers, which are often responsible for safety of ancient constructions and design of interventions aimed basically to mitigate structural damages, rather than strongly improve structural perform- ances of constructions, as for ordinary structures. Concept of mitigation of structural damages is only recently applied to structural restoration; in fact, many interventions made on archaeological constructions in the past were very invasive, operated directly on the structure changing its ap- pearance and original resistant mechanisms. Thus evaluation of present structural performances of ancient constructions is very complex and must be based on an accurate review of former in- terventions and an analysis of actual structural mechanisms governing the behaviour of the con- struction. In the present paper, this topic is discussed with reference to an amazing construction: the Temple C, placed in the Greek archaeological site of Selinunte, south-western Sicily, Italy. 1 INTRODUCTION Preservation of archaeological constructions is a very complex task, involving different skills. Structural engineer has often an important role due to the need to

  • Pirro Ligorio and Sicilian Antiquities: Indifference Or an Unwitting “Short Circuit”?
    Chapter 6 Pirro Ligorio and Sicilian Antiquities: Indifference or an Unwitting “Short Circuit”? Federico Rausa Scrutiny of the description of the main towns and cities of ancient Sicily in the alphabetical encyclopaedia of Pirro Ligorio, which is set out in the docu- mentary appendix, reveals a surprising gap with respect to the amount and the tenor of the information provided in the works of Sicilian historiographers published in the decades between 1537 and 1573.1 A synoptic reading of Ligorio’s passages and those of contemporary Sicilian authors of the 16th century opens up to the reader a diametrically opposed panorama. Ligorio is recapitulatory with regard to references to literary sourc- es and does not mention monumental evidence, except for isolated cases of citations of epigraphs.2 In the Sicilian sources, there is instead a wealth of in- formation on the vestiges of the past that populated the island and were still unknown and mysterious. An attempt will be made here to provide an explanation of this lacuna in the world of Ligorio’s antiquarian knowledge and to understand the reasons for this. 1 Sicilian Antiquities in Historical Writings on Sicily in the 16th Century For the 16th century one cannot speak of the existence in Sicily of antiquar- ian studies strictly so termed. Interests in the topography and the corography of ancient Sicily, which from the second half of the 15th century were already evident in Sicilian humanists following the 14th-century chroniclers, were the consequence of adhering to the historiographic methods indicated by Flavio 1 The same considerations also pertain to the description of the island (Turin, ASTorino, a.II.3.J.16, s.v.
