Susy Marcon Graiche Antiga spa Lenia Kouneni (University of St Andrews) Mazarine, Paris) n una Venezia ormai aperta all’entroterra, Daniele, esponente autorevole dell’illustre famiglia Barbaro, Ifu uno dei maggiori intellettuali del sedicesimo secolo: si occupò di ilosoia, matematica, astronomia, ottica, storia, musica e architettura, tessendo una itta rete di relazioni con gli esponenti di maggior rilievo della scena politica, religiosa e culturale del tempo. Presso la Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana è conservato il nucleo più cospicuo e importante dei suoi auto- grai, solo alcuni dei quali sono approdati alle stampe. Provenienti da raccolte diverse, i manoscritti furono un tempo tutti sul suo scrittoio, a Padova, a Maser e soprattutto a Venezia. Essi sono testimoni autorevoli di quali fossero i modi con i quali si procedeva alla stesura delle opere letterarie, scientiiche, teologiche ed epistolari nel Rinascimento, e di come l’edizione si completasse con la cura delle fasi di stampa. Da questi si apprende che Daniele ebbe particolare attenzione per le diverse fasi editoriali. Fra le sue opere più importanti igura l’edizione dei vitruviani Dieci libri dell’architettura, edita da Francesco Marcolini nel 1556, che comprende, oltre ai inissimi disegni di architettura di Andrea Palladio, anche immagini xilograiche presumibilmente realizzate da disegni di Giuseppe Porta Salviati, e La pratica della perspettiva, che sarà pubblicata nel 1568 e di cui oggi si conservano presso la Marciana ben tre mano- scritti preparatori. Il Salviati, come è noto, è uno degli artisti presenti nella splendida decorazione del sofitto della Libreria sansoviniana, nella seconda sequenza di tondi a partire dall’ingresso, e sono provati anche rapporti di Da- niele con Giovanni Battista Zelotti e Paolo Veronese, autori rispettivamente della quinta e sesta sequenza di tondi; il prestito a Daniele di un codice bessarioneo è attestato in un registro marciano relativo agli anni 1545-59. Ne La pratica della perspettiva Daniele afferma di apprezzare in maniera particolare il sofitto 7 della chiesa della Madonna dell’Orto, realizzato nel 1556 dai fratelli bresciani Cristoforo e Stefano Rosa, a mostra Daniele Barbaro (1514-70). Letteratura, scienza e arti nella Venezia del Rinascimento si autori anche, fra il 1559 e il 1560, dello straordinario sofitto del Vestibolo della Libreria sansoviniana, Linserisce fra le attività organizzate nell’ambito del progetto internazionale Daniele Barbaro (1514- oggi purtroppo in condizioni assai critiche di conservazione. Al di là di questi indizi, non ci sono prove di un 70): In and Beyond the Text, inanziato da The Leverhulme Trust (UK), che ha visto la partecipazione in intervento diretto del Barbaro nel programma iconograico della Libreria di San Marco, ma certamente la partenariato della University of St Andrews, del Centre d’Études Supérieures de la Renaissance di Tours e sua preminenza nella società colta e nelle accademie del tempo, che tanta parte ebbero nell’ideazione della della Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana.

  • Palazzo Querini Stampalia Portego
    Palazzo Querini Stampalia Museum Portego entrance Giovanni Mythology Bellini room room The earliest documents concerning the construction of the palace are from 1513-14 and point to Nicolò Querini as commissioner of the works. Grandson Francesco continued the works of enlargement and restoration in various stages throughout the first half of the century. From this period archival documents note nothing of importance until the acquisitions of the following century: in 1614 the building which is now the east wing of the palace and in 1653 part of the house between the canal and the church in Campo Santa Maria Formosa. The last radical transformation of Ca’ Querini was between 1789 and 1797 for the occasion of the marriage in 1790 between Alvise, son of Zuanne, and Maria Teresa Lippomano. In addition to the elevation of the third floor, completed after 1795, there was a large scale restructuring of the interiors with the reduction of the length of the portego and the evolution of the decorative scheme on which worked Jacopo Guarana, Davide Rossi, ornamentalist Giuseppe Bernardino Bison, gilder Domenico Sartori and brothers and stucco workers Giuseppe and Pietro Castelli. The museum is presented in such a way as to recall a patrician residence of the eighteenth century with the display of all of the collections of the family: furnishings, porcelain, sculpture, fabrics, chandeliers, globes, as well as paintings, in order to bring to life the spaces once truly inhabited by the Querini. A rich theatre where every detail plays an important role, from the fabrics in some rooms woven according to original patterns, to the curtains and the pelmets which adorn the windows to the original chandeliers.

  • Onore E Decoro Delle Muse Bresciane»1 La Letteratura Bresciana Del Settecento Nei Contributi Critici
    CRISTINA CAPPELLETTI «Onore e decoro delle muse bresciane»1 La letteratura bresciana del Settecento nei contributi critici Un bilancio sui contributi critici dedicati alla letteratura bresciana de- gli ultimi quarant’anni dovrebbe presentare il «complessivo degli aspetti favorevoli e sfavorevoli di un’attività, il positivo e il negativo di un’espe- rienza», attenendosi al significato che il termine ha in ambito economi- co. In senso più lato, un bilancio dovrebbe proporsi di «determinare [...] quanto è fatto e quanto resta da fare; valutare qualità e difetti, vantaggi e svantaggi»2; e, riportandoci al caso presente, individuare quali autori o generi siano stati più o meno trattati, e proporre – ove possibile – spunti per ricerche future. Per ovviare alla noia che potrebbe ingenerare un mero elenco, o qua- si, di titoli, pur tenendo fede al resoconto delle entrate e delle uscite, si è ritenuto opportuno corredare il bilancio di un allegato con le cosiddette pezze giustificative; nello specifico, di demandare a un Allegato di bilan- cio la bibliografia dei contributi critici degli ultimi quattro decenni, per riservare al testo un consuntivo più “conversevole”, volto a individuare alcuni aspetti peculiari della letteratura bresciana del XVIII secolo, met- tendo in rilievo se e in quale misura la critica si sia occupata di essi. Considerando l’ambiente culturale bresciano settecentesco, già a suo tempo bene delineato dal contributo di Elisabetta Selmi3, ciò che emerge da subito è come lo status di provincia della terraferma veneta abbia po- chi riscontri in ambito letterario, almeno nella seconda metà del secolo. Nei primi cinquant’anni del Settecento, infatti, si guarda all’erudizione veneziana come a un modello da imitare, e Apostolo Zeno e Angelo Calo- gerà, animatori della cultura nella Serenissima di quegl’anni, sono assunti anche da Giammaria Mazzuchelli quali numi tutelari, al cui vaglio sotto- porre le proprie opere e le proprie iniziative.

  • VILLA DI MASER World Heritage
    VILLA DI MASER World Heritage The Villa was built between 1550 and 1560 by Andrea Palladio for Daniele Barbaro, Patriarch of Aquileia, and his brother Marcantonio Ambassador of the Venetian Republic, trasforming the medieval palace of Maser into a splendid country residence, masterpiece of the Venetian Reneissance. Paolo Veronese decorated the Villa with his vastest and most important cycle of frescoes, while Alessandro Vittoria, brilliant pupil of Sansovino, cured the stuccos. The Villa passed by marriage from the Barbaro to the Trevisan, to the Basadonna, finally to the family of Ludovico Manin, the last Doge of Venice. In 1838, the Manin sold it to Gian Battista Colferai, who had been renting it as a country residence, but his daughters, suspicious of each other, not wanting to invest in a propriety individed within the family, let the Villa go into complete ruin. In 1850 the industrialist Sante Giacomelli bought it and completely restaured and rennovated it, with the assistance of artists like Zanotti and Moretto Larese. In 1934 Carlo Giacomelli sold it to Giuseppe Volpi di Misurata, and the Villa became the home of his daughter Marina who continued with immense care and love the works of restauration throughout the years. Her daughter now lives in it with her family. GUIDE TO THE VISIT 2. "CROCIERA" OR CRUCIFORM HALL The six illusionistic landscapes had been covered in 1850-52 by different paintings more in tune with the fashion of the time. Uncovered in 1934, the four landscapes towards the central balcony were reconstructed, while of the two near the entrance stairways one was left to testify the conditions in which it was discovered, the other was restaured more respectfully.

Introduction The Other Voice In 1415, the young and still unmarried Francesco Barbaro (1390–1454) wrote the revolutionary treatise The Wealth of Wives (De re uxoria) that posits the value a wife contributes to a marriage as the mother of offspring.1 It is revolutionary because it identifies the mother—a woman, not a man; an interloper in the house- hold, not its patriarch—as the critical figure for the rearing of the young and, consequently, for the social and cultural reproduction of the noble family.

Blanchard, B.A., MSt. A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin May 2018 ABSTRACT EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY FORERUNNERS OF VATICAN II: EARLY MODERN CATHOLIC REFORM AND THE SYNOD OF PISTOIA Shaun L. Blanchard Marquette University, 2018 This dissertation sheds further light on the nature of church reform and the roots of the Second Vatican Council (1962–65) through a study of eighteenth-century Catholic reformers who anticipated Vatican II. The most striking of these examples is the Synod of Pistoia (1786), the high-water mark of “late Jansenism.” Most of the reforms of the Synod were harshly condemned by Pope Pius VI in the Bull Auctorem fidei (1794), and late Jansenism was totally discredited in the increasingly ultramontane nineteenth-century Catholic Church. Nevertheless, many of the reforms implicit or explicit in the Pistoian agenda – such as an exaltation of the role of bishops, an emphasis on infallibility as a gift to the entire church, religious liberty, a simpler and more comprehensible liturgy that incorporates the vernacular, and the encouragement of lay Bible reading and Christocentric devotions – were officially promulgated at Vatican II.

  • Early Sources Informing Leon Battista Alberti's De Pictura
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Alberti Before Florence: Early Sources Informing Leon Battista Alberti’s De Pictura A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Art History by Peter Francis Weller 2014 © Copyright by Peter Francis Weller 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Alberti Before Florence: Early Sources Informing Leon Battista Alberti’s De Pictura By Peter Francis Weller Doctor of Philosophy in Art History University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Charlene Villaseñor Black, Chair De pictura by Leon Battista Alberti (1404?-1472) is the earliest surviving treatise on visual art written in humanist Latin by an ostensible practitioner of painting. The book represents a definitive moment of cohesion between the two most conspicuous cultural developments of the early Renaissance, namely, humanism and the visual arts. This dissertation reconstructs the intellectual and visual environments in which Alberti moved before he entered Florence in the curia of Pope Eugenius IV in 1434, one year before the recorded date of completion of De pictura. For the two decades prior to his arrival in Florence, from 1414 to 1434, Alberti resided in Padua, Bologna, and Rome. Examination of specific textual and visual material in those cities – sources germane to Alberti’s humanist and visual development, and thus to the ideas put forth in De pictura – has been insubstantial. This dissertation will therefore present an investigation into the sources available to Alberti in Padua, Bologna and Rome, and will argue that this material helped to shape the prescriptions in Alberti’s canonical Renaissance tract. By more fully accounting for his intellectual and artistic progression before his arrival in Florence, this forensic reconstruction aims to fill a gap in our knowledge of Alberti’s formative years and thereby underline impact of his early career upon his development as an art theorist.
