Andrea Schiavone Andrea Schiavone. Painting, engraving and drawing in 16th-century Venice 31 March – 2 April 2016 Venice, Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana – Fondazione Giorgio Cini Although a leading Venetian painter in the sixteenth century, Andrea Meldolla called Schiavone has been rather overlooked by modern critics compared to more celebrated artists, such as Titian or Tintoretto. Born in Zara (Zadar, Croatia) at the beginning of the sixteenth century, Schiavone soon moved to Venice, where he painted significant works for churches and public institutions, such as Sansovino’s Library. He was arguably the most brilliant engraver in Venice in his day. The artist is now the subject of a monographic exhibition intended for the general public, currently on at the Museo Correr, and an international conference to be held from 31 March to 2 April 2016. Organised by the Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana together with the Fondazione Giorgio Cini Institute of Art History, this is the first ever conference dedicated to Schiavone and has attracted scholars from Europe and the United States. The conference will provide the opportunity to reconsider and explore further some still uncertain aspects of the biography and the work of this prolific master who was engaged on several fronts of artistic production: painting, engraving and drawing. Spread over three days, the four conference sessions will be attended by specialists on the subject, who will exchange ideas on issues of attribution, technique, diagnostics and iconography as well as the critical fortune of Schiavone in the art-history literature and collecting. Other themes will include connoisseurship and reception in Italy and Croatia, his homeland. The conference has been organised by the Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana together with Fondazione Giorgio Cini Institute of Art History, Venice. .

  • Re/Defining the Imaginary Museum of National Music
    Re/Defining the Imaginary Museum of National Music The Case of Croatia Zdravko Blažekovic´ The historian is a product of history himself, and of his situation. However hard we may try, he cannot escape the molding of his mind by his experience and his surroundings.1 Music historiography in Croatia was throughout the twentieth century marked by the path established in the late nineteenth century by Franjo Ksaver Kuhač (1834-1911), who defined the criteria for inclusion of musicians into the national canon on the basis of their Croatian ethnic origin rather than presenting cultural circles in which they were active. In the twentieth century, the central influence on the definition of the canon of Croatian music history came from Josip Andreis (1909-1982) in his historical survey published in three Croatian editions (Razvoj muzičke umjetnosti u Hrvatskoj [The development of musical arts in Croatia], 1962; Povijest hrvatske glazbe [History of Croatian music], 1974, 1989) and two English editions (Music in Croatia 1974, 1982). Synthesizing the existing views about Croatian music, he constructed in his narrative a museum of Croatian and foreign com- posers active in Croatia, as well as composers born in Croatia but living abroad. Besides nationalistic traits inherited from Kuhač, a reason for emphasizing activities of composers working abroad were the political and cultural circumstances surrounding Andreis during the time of communist Yugoslavia, when Croatian connections with the Central European musical space were particularly appreciated, especially when the quality of composers living abroad surpassed the musical production within the country. Being a part of multina- tional Yugoslavia situated between the Eastern and Western cultural and religious spheres, Croatians at the time wanted to distance themselves from the cultures in Eastern Europe and felt the need to be reassured about their belonging to Slavia Latina.

We look at the impact on inflows and outflows of both traditional and precautionary programs, also taking into account the characteristics of the programs. Using the entropy balancing method to address the selection bias, we find that traditional IMF programs have an anticatalytic effect on private capital inflows; this effect is mainly driven by programs that went off-track and by exceptional access programs. By contrast, precautionary programs are found to have a catalytic effect, working mainly through outflows. JEL Classification: F33, F34, G11, G15.

The awards, started in 2004, are given for Life and Annual Achievement and for Contribution to the Life of Local Communities in the field of conservation.This is in memory of Vicko Andrić, 1793 – 1866, an architect and surveyor and the first Croatian conservator, responsible for preservation of many monuments in Croatia. The public at large, professionals and institutions, can nominate people who they think deserve such honours and I would like to express my thanks to those who proposed my name and to those who supported their proposition. Last autumn, I visited for the first time the Town Museum in SISAK, Roman SISCIA, a treasure trove of archaeological finds, from all periods, including Roman, who were settled there from the 1st to the 4th century AD. The Museum had recently employed a conservator and wanted to establish a conservation workshop, to be able to do at least some work at home, instead of sending to other workshops.

In reality, however, many talented painters struggled immensely to reach that top, while an even larger number of mediocre painters could only dream of fame and glory. This research is not primarily concerned with the elite artists, nor does it cover the many anonymous painter-craftsmen in the periphery of the art market. Instead, it is devoted to the middle group of ambitious and skilled artists trying to break out of the margins of the art world. Sixteenth-century Venice was a city with an abundance of churches, scuole and palaces, and was governed by a culturally sophisticated elite.

The migration of the population from the eastern coast of the Adriatic to Venice taking place over the centuries, can be viewed as a complex process caused by the political, cultural, and trade links between the two neighbour- ing regions. Most of the towns along the eastern Adriatic coast share common histori- cal features, having all once been part of the Venetian Republic. Dubrovnik, however, managed to retain its independence as a city-republic, except for the period from 1205 to 1358, with a powerful economy founded on sea-borne commerce, and a cultural and scholarly life stirred to the greatest heights among the cities on the eastern shores of the Adriatic.

Correspondence to Adolfo Rubinstein (email: [email protected]). (Submitted: 16 November 2014 – Revised version received: 15 March 2015 – Accepted: 10 April 2015 – Published online: 22 June 2015) Abstract Objective To estimate the impact of Argentine policies to reduce trans fatty acids (TFA) on coronary heart disease (CHD), disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and associated health care costs. Methods We estimated the baseline intake of TFA before 2004 to be 1.5% of total energy intake. We built a policy model including baseline intake of TFA, the oils and fats used to replace artificial TFAs, the clinical effect of reducing artificial TFAs and the costs and DALYs saved due to averted CHD events. To calculate the percentage of reduction of CHD, we calculated CHD risks on a population-based sample before and after implementation. The effect of the policies was modelled in three ways, based on projected changes: (i) in plasma lipid profiles; (ii) in lipid and inflammatory biomarkers; and (iii) the results of prospective cohort studies.

  • Italy Between Fictional Past and Postnational Future
    No Future For You: Italy Between Fictional Past And Postnational Future Emanuel Rota Io non mi sento Italiano ma per fortuna o purtroppo lo sono --Giorgio Gaber In the past few decades the intellectuals who have been discussing globalization have predicted the demise of the nation-state. Italy is probably the first western country where such predictions have become common currency. Given the fragility of Italian national identity and the weakness of the Italian state, the foundering of the nation-state in Italy should not be a surprise. The celebrations for the 150th anniversary of political unification and their limited and controversial success in capturing the Italian political imagination should serve as a reminder that nation-states are, despite their efforts to appear timeless and transcendental, recent, historically-specific creations. Now, at what may be the end of an epoch, the present and the future of Italy already are already looking post-national.1 The “Southern Question,” Northern Separatism, and Pseudo-Federalism The globalization debates have underscored the long-standing failure of the Italian state to solve its most important and most obvious problem: the Southern Question. In 2007, according to the European Union, five southern regions of Italy—Campania, Puglia, Basilicata, Calabria and Sicily—had a GDP per capita that was still less than 75% of the European average, while all the Northern Italian regions had a GDP per capita equal or superior to the European average (European Commission 2011, 47). As the map below shows, the GDP of Italy’s five southernmost regions is in line with the GDP of Greece and Portugal, while the GDP of the central and northern regions of Italy is in line with that of the neighboring countries to the north and west.
