MISSION All of the educational institutions belonging to Palazzi are cross-disciplinary and interrelated; students have open access to all curricula and program offerings for a truly wide-reaching choice of areas of study. Palazzi is the singular governing entity that unites the institutions and appoints designated Deans and Administrators to each. The programs at Palazzi range from a variety of short-term up to Career Programs and four-year academic programs offered in Florence, Italy. The main schools of our institutions address liberal and studio arts, business, fashion and accessory design, hospitality management, culinary arts, food communications and publishing, digital and visual media and imaging, and contemporary Italian language studies. These areas have been developed and expanded with the fast growing changes in higher education and the demand for international collegiate experiences. We are committed to excellence in learning and seek to carry out this mission by shaping students who are sensitive towards global understanding as a result of their academic and social interactions in Florence. Palazzi continually seeks to strengthen its relationships with international partners and is proud of academic partnerships established all over the world. We are open to creating study abroad affiliations with colleges and universities (community and 4-year, public and private) in order to foster academic collaboration and create meaningful programs for the students of such institutions. We are members of several international associations and organizations and participate in key global events each year. Our presence in Florence contributes a new outlook on how humans approach learning here. The past centuries have produced great minds in this city, whose works densely populate the streets. Palazzi proposes innovative learning strategies that allow students to live in a historic city like Florence with the clarity, curiosity and creativity that will enrich without a doubt the Florence that they will leave behind at the end of their studies. VALuES • The foundations of the institutions that constitute Palazzi are based on the following core concepts: • Cross-cultural and interdisciplinary learning for students through direct interaction with the academic and social fabrics of our institutions and the city of Florence; • A full-immersion approach to our entire range of academic programs abroad whether created for short term, short-term faculty-led, or long- or semester-term lengths of time. • The practice of responsibility and integrity in relationships with our partners, a 100% personalized approach that enables students and faculty from a partnering institution to rely upon the support system created by Palazzi institutions and the partner. 4 PALAzzI LOCATIONS ANd CAMPuSES FUA Florence University of the Arts belongs to palazzi Florence Association for international education, an academic consortium of higher education institutions located in historical palazzi, or palaces, located through Florence’s city center: Palazzo Bombicci Guicciardini Strozzi Campus in Piazza Santa Croce FUA Florence University of the Arts APICIuS international school of hospitality J SChOOL School of Journalism, Communication and Publishing ISB International School of Business Palazzi doni in Piazza Santa Croce dIVA Digital Imaging and Visual Arts IdEAS Interior Design, Environmental Architecture and Sustainability Corridoio Fiorentino Palazzo della Giosta near Piazza Sant’Ambrogio FAST Fashion and Accessories studies and Technology Palazzo ramirez de Montalvo near Piazza Duomo sQuola Center for Contemporary Italian Studies Villa Brilli Peri near Piazza Santa Maria Novella APICIuS Culinary Institute of Florence - School of Food and Wine studies FEdOrA pastry shop open to the public operated by the students of the Apicius Baking and Pastry Department Ex-Teatro San Gallo near Piazza San Marco F_AIr Florence Artists in Residence and FUA Fine Arts Department Ganzo near Piazza Sant’Ambrogio GANzO Cultural and Eno-gastronomic Association open to the public and operated by the students of Apicius school of Food and Wine Studies 5 PALAzzI ACCrEdITATION Palazzi collaborates with many institutions

  • Merchants and the Origins of Capitalism
    Merchants and the Origins of Capitalism Sophus A. Reinert Robert Fredona Working Paper 18-021 Merchants and the Origins of Capitalism Sophus A. Reinert Harvard Business School Robert Fredona Harvard Business School Working Paper 18-021 Copyright © 2017 by Sophus A. Reinert and Robert Fredona Working papers are in draft form. This working paper is distributed for purposes of comment and discussion only. It may not be reproduced without permission of the copyright holder. Copies of working papers are available from the author. Merchants and the Origins of Capitalism Sophus A. Reinert and Robert Fredona ABSTRACT: N.S.B. Gras, the father of Business History in the United States, argued that the era of mercantile capitalism was defined by the figure of the “sedentary merchant,” who managed his business from home, using correspondence and intermediaries, in contrast to the earlier “traveling merchant,” who accompanied his own goods to trade fairs. Taking this concept as its point of departure, this essay focuses on the predominantly Italian merchants who controlled the long‐distance East‐West trade of the Mediterranean during the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Until the opening of the Atlantic trade, the Mediterranean was Europe’s most important commercial zone and its trade enriched European civilization and its merchants developed the most important premodern mercantile innovations, from maritime insurance contracts and partnership agreements to the bill of exchange and double‐entry bookkeeping. Emerging from literate and numerate cultures, these merchants left behind an abundance of records that allows us to understand how their companies, especially the largest of them, were organized and managed.

  • Taro Systematik Unterklasse: Froschlöffelähnliche (Alismatidae
    Taro Taro (Colocasia esculenta) Systematik Unterklasse: Froschlöffelähnliche (Alismatidae) Ordnung: Froschlöffelartige (Alismatales) Familie: Aronstabgewächse (Araceae) Unterfamilie: Aroideae Gattung: Colocasia Art: Taro Wissenschaftlicher Name Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott Traditioneller Taroanbau auf Terrassen aus Lavagestein auf der Insel Kauaʻi Taro (Colocasia esculenta) ist eine Nutzpflanze aus der Familie der Aronstabgewächse (Araceae), die seit mehr als 2000 Jahren als Nahrungspflanze kultiviert wird. Ein anderer Name für Taro ist Wasserbrotwurzel. In alten Nachschlagewerken, wie z. B. Pierer's Universal-Lexikon findet sich für die Pflanze auch die Bezeichnung Tarro. Genutzt werden vorwiegend die stärkehaltigen Rhizome der Pflanze. Sie werden wie Kartoffeln gekocht. In den Anbauländern werden auch die Blätter und Blattstiele als Gemüse gegessen. Sie enthalten viel Mineralien, Vitamin A, B und C. Taro wird heute weltweit in feuchten, tropischen und subtropischen Klimazonen angebaut. Für den Export wird er in Ägypten, Costa Rica, der Karibik, Brasilien und Indien angepflanzt. In Hawaii ist die dort kalo[1] genannte Pflanze eine der wichtigsten traditionellen Nutzpflanzen. Aus den Rhizomen wird poi, eine Paste, hergestellt. Die Aborigines in Australien nutzen diese Pflanze um daraus Busch-Brot zu backen, indem sie aus dem Rhizom Mehl herstellten.

  • Some Account of the Cuisine Bourgeoise of Ancient Rome
    283 XV.—Some Account of the Cuisine Bourgeoise of Ancient Rome. By H. C. COOTE, Esq. F.S.A. Bead December 13th, 1866. No one has yet written the history of the Roman palate, such as it became when the successes of that people had given occasion for its artificial cultivation. The Roman, consequently, has never been contemplated on this side of his character. This is not merely an omission in archaeology, it is a blank left in the annals of taste. And the omission is the more remarkable, as most other subjects of antiquity have been fathomed by the learned, down even to the shoe and the caliga. This subject alone caret vate sacro.a In saying this I do not of course mean that the subject has not been imperfectly touched upon, for all the world is familiar with the rhombus of Domitian, the mullus trilibris of Horace, the oysters of Rutupium, and the slave-fed murence of Yidius Pollio; while the dishes of nightingales' tongues served up to that inventive madman Helio- gabalus, and the culinary wonders of the Augustan writers, are known alike to learned and unlearned. But all these allusions have been fragmentary merely, meant to point a feeble moral,—not to expound principles of the cuisine. In a word, the writers have never thought of treating Roman cookery en cuisinier—the only way in which the subject can afford a rational interest to any one. Virtually, therefore, this subject has been left untouched by these authors. There is no excuse, however, for this neglect of Roman Cookery, for the amplest materials exist for its mastery and complete illustration.

  • STATUS and MEAT CONSUMPTION in POMPEII: Diet and Its Social Implications Through the Analysis of Ancient Primary Sources and Zooarchaeological Remains
    STATUS AND MEAT CONSUMPTION IN POMPEII: Diet and its Social Implications through the Analysis of Ancient Primary Sources and Zooarchaeological Remains Vicki Moses Honors Thesis in the Department of Anthropology University of Michigan April 2012 Acknowledgements All along the process of this research, I have been lucky to be surrounded by support. The academic support I have received from my thesis advisors, Dr. Lisa Young and Dr. Laura Motta, has Been above and beyond my wildest expectations. Dr. Lisa Young has introduced me to the steps in undertaking an enormous research project, both in the structure of doing so and in how to win the emotional battle. I appreciate her availability and approachability in all aspects of my education. Dr. Laura Motta has given me extensive insight into academic writing through her thoughtful and helpful comments as well as guided me with her expertise regarding food in the Roman world. You have both helped me write a thesis of which I am proud. Without the help of my Honors Thesis Mentor, University of Michigan Graduate Student Emily Holt, I would not have had the opportunity to work on this exciting project. Her guidance on the subject matter and also on academic writing has been vital to my research. She allowed me access to her extensive database and faunal material from PARP:PS. I am so grateful for the hours she has spent training me as a zooarchaeologist in the laB and editing my thesis. You are a great role model to me. Thank you to my family and friends who have helped me throughout this process, especially my parents.
