Abstract This paper analyses possible interpretations of the unbuilt Leonardo's project for the tiburio of the Milan cathedral, depicted in two sheets of the Codex Atlanticus, using digital tools, mainly 3D modelling techniques. Starting from existing studies and hypothetical reconstructions of Leonardo’s project, exploiting only analogue methods (i.e. 2D drawing techniques), new in- depth analyses are presented. In detail the use of 3D modelling allows a systematic analysis of the possible solutions for the ability to easily reconstruct the plan of each solution investigated starting from the section represented by Leonardo in the Codex Atlanticus. Results lead to multiple interpretative solutions of this complex architecture. Keywords Leonardo da Vinci, Tiburio, Cathedral, Milan, Unbuilt architecture, Virtual reconstruction, 3D modeling. 1. Introduction these two sheets.

Viva Memoria n. 38 The Redemptoristine's Theological Journal July 2016 Viva Memoria n.38 E D I T O R I A L VIVA MEMORIA – n. 38 July 2016 THE REDEMPTORISTINE’S THEOLOGICAL JOURNAL Dear Redemptoristine Sisters, Dear Redemptorists, Dear Readers, Welcome! Yes, welcome to this publication of ‘your’ Theological Journal. In the name of the members of the Service Board we wish you happy but more importantly, informed and inspired reading from the articles you will find in this Journal. Since the last Journal, the younger, better ‘the more recently professed’ Sisters, met in Scala for a meeting (27.07-03.08.2016) The subject of the meeting was inspired by the words of Pope Francis’ in his letter to the Religious for the Year Dedicated to the Consecrated. We quote the Holy Father’s own words as addressed to the Consecrated: “… looking to the past with gratitude, living the present with Passion and looking into the future with hope” (Pope Francis). The meeting was graced with the presence of Rev. Michael Brehl, C.Ss.R., the Redemptorists’ Superior General, who spoke of some perspectives for the future of our Order. Sister Imma Di Stefano, O.Ss.R., the prioress of the Scala community, gave a gracious welcome address to all the participants, expressing the joy of her community as the hostesses of this meeting. (Sister Imma’s welcome address will be printed here in its entirety. It is the first article.) Sister Imma (of Scala) is well qualified to speak of “THE REDEMPTORISTINE CHARISM.” Her article follows her welcome address. -

3 Italian Opera Composers June 2020
Italian Culture June 2020 Dear Italian Culture Friends I thought that it might be interesting to look this week at the work of three Italian Opera Composers who later composed some liturgical works. In the case of two of the composers, we invariably think of their operatic output. These are Giuseppe Verdi and Gioachino Rossini. The third of them, Cherubini, also wrote a number of operas before turning to liturgical music In 1831 Rossini travelled to Spain with a friend, a banker named Alexandre Aguado, owner of Chateau Margaux, famous for its Bordeaux wine (claret). While he was there, he was commissioned by Fernández Varela, a state councillor, to write a setting of the liturgical text, the Stabat Mater. Although he began the work in 1831, it was not until 1841 that the final form was completed. It was premiered on Holy Saturday 1833 in the Chapel of San Felipe el Real in Madrid but this was the only performance of that version. The choice of Holy Saturday was appropriate as the work tells part of the story of the previous day, Good Friday, and perhaps it was the rush to complete it in time for that first performance which caused Rossini’s dissatisfaction with that version and caused him to continue to revise it. In fact, the first version was not solely the work of Rossini. It was a twelve-part piece of which Rossini had written Parts 1 and 5-9. His friend, Giovanni Tadolini, had written the rest but Rossini claimed it as his own work. Rossini, the product of a musical family from Pesaro, on the Adriatic coast - his father was a trumpeter and his mother a singer - had published his first composition at the age of 18 and the next year he was contracted to write operas and manage theatres in Naples. -

Monsignor Luigi Biraghi “Gloria Del Clero Ambrosiano”
Monsignor Luigi Biraghi “Gloria del clero ambrosiano” Angelo Majo Monsignor Luigi Biraghi “Gloria del clero ambrosiano” ISBN 88-7023-294-8 Prima edizione 1997 Nuova edizione 2006 Copyright © 1997 NED - Nuove Edizioni Duomo soc. coop. a r. 1. 20122 Milano - Piazza Duomo 16 - tel 02 86.00.84 Proprietà letteraria riservata - Printed in Italy PREFAZIONE Alla pubblicazione della vita di mons. Luigi Biraghi (1801-1879) scritta da mons. Angelo Majo nel 1997 era stata occasione – colta dalla allora madre generale suor Maria Paola Albertario – la celebrazione del- l’anno centenario della morte di s. Ambrogio e della sorella s. Marcelli- na, dal Biraghi voluta patrona della nuova sua congregazione. Tale circostanza, letta alla luce dell’avvenimento della Beatifica- zione nella cattedrale di Milano anziché a Roma, si riveste di significato profetico. La nuova edizione vuole essere annuncio, memoria, invito. Annuncio della Beatificazione del venerabile Luigi Biraghi a Mila- no, in Duomo, il 30 aprile 2006. La Diocesi di Milano celebra per la prima volta una Beatificazione e fa memoria di una luminosa tradizione di testimonianze evangeliche, fa memoria di santi noti e ignoti che hanno incarnato la Parola di Cristo a servizio dei fratelli. Al tempo della prima pubblicazione della magistrale biografia scritta dal Majo, la Beatificazione di mons. Biraghi era un avvenimento certo, ma lontano. L’eroicità delle virtù non era ancora stata proclama- ta (lo sarà nel dicembre 2003 dal servo di Dio Giovanni Paolo II). L’attesa del grande evento è dunque vibrante nello scritto di An- gelo Majo, ma permeata di prudente, discreto silenzio. La nuova edizione ci presenta il decreto di venerabilità, proclama- to dal compianto Pontefice e si arricchisce della presentazione della professoressa Vismara, che con intelligente competenza mette in risalto la fedeltà amorosa del Biraghi alla Chiesa e la sua missione appassiona- ta di educatore profondamente colto, profondamente incarnato nel suo tempo. -
The Cambridge Companion to Age of Constantine.Pdf
The Cambridge Companion to THE AGE OF CONSTANTINE S The Cambridge Companion to the Age of Constantine offers students a com- prehensive one-volume introduction to this pivotal emperor and his times. Richly illustrated and designed as a readable survey accessible to all audiences, it also achieves a level of scholarly sophistication and a freshness of interpretation that will be welcomed by the experts. The volume is divided into five sections that examine political history, reli- gion, social and economic history, art, and foreign relations during the reign of Constantine, a ruler who gains in importance because he steered the Roman Empire on a course parallel with his own personal develop- ment. Each chapter examines the intimate interplay between emperor and empire and between a powerful personality and his world. Collec- tively, the chapters show how both were mutually affected in ways that shaped the world of late antiquity and even affect our own world today. Noel Lenski is Associate Professor of Classics at the University of Colorado, Boulder. A specialist in the history of late antiquity, he is the author of numerous articles on military, political, cultural, and social history and the monograph Failure of Empire: Valens and the Roman State in the Fourth Century ad.
