Quidditas 37 (2016) 57 Small Mid-Tudor Chronicles and Popular History: 1540-1560 Barrett L. Beer Kent State University This essay examines twenty-two editions of little-studied small Mid-Tudor chroni- cles that were published by printers at Canterbury and London. They demonstrate the important role of printers in historical scholarship and offer a significantly dif- ferent perspective on English history than the better-known, larger contemporary works of Robert Fabyan, Edward Hall, and Thomas Cooper. The chronicles also shed light on the readership of historical works by non-elite readers who presum- ably could not afford larger and more expensive chronicles. The short chronicles present a simplified view of the past, avoid propagating the well-known Tudor myths including the tyranny of Richard III, and demonstrate a clear preference for recent history. Although overlooked in most accounts of Early Modern historiography, the small Mid-Tudor chronicles are clearly part of the historical culture of the era. -

Madonna and Child on a Curved Throne C
National Gallery of Art NATIONAL GALLERY OF ART ONLINE EDITIONS Italian Thirteenth and Fourteenth Century Paintings Byzantine 13th Century Madonna and Child on a Curved Throne c. 1260/1280 tempera on linden panel painted surface: 82.4 x 50.1 cm (32 7/16 x 19 3/4 in.) overall: 84 x 53.5 cm (33 1/16 x 21 1/16 in.) framed: 90.8 x 58.3 x 7.6 cm (35 3/4 x 22 15/16 x 3 in.) Andrew W. Mellon Collection 1937.1.1 ENTRY The painting shows the Madonna seated frontally on an elaborate, curved, two-tier, wooden throne of circular plan.[1] She is supporting the blessing Christ child on her left arm according to the iconographic tradition of the Hodegetria.[2] Mary is wearing a red mantle over an azure dress. The child is dressed in a salmon-colored tunic and blue mantle; he holds a red scroll in his left hand, supporting it on his lap.[3] In the upper corners of the panel, at the height of the Virgin’s head, two medallions contain busts of two archangels [fig. 1] [fig. 2], with their garments surmounted by loroi and with scepters and spheres in their hands.[4] It was Bernard Berenson (1921) who recognized the common authorship of this work and Enthroned Madonna and Child and who concluded—though admitting he had no specialized knowledge of art of this cultural area—that they were probably works executed in Constantinople around 1200.[5] These conclusions retain their authority and continue to stir debate. -

Carta Dei Servizi Del Museo Pinacoteca Accademia Carrara
CARTA DEI SERVIZI DEL MUSEO PINACOTECA ACCADEMIA CARRARA PREMESSA La Carta dei servizi, costituisce lo strumento attraverso cui il Museo comunica con i suoi visitatori e si confronta con essi. Essa individua i servizi che la Fondazione s’impegna a erogare sulla base del Regolamento del Museo, delle norme vigenti e nel rispetto delle esigenze e delle aspettative dei fruitori, la cui soddisfazione costituisce un obiettivo primario. La Carta della qualità dei servizi risponde dunque all’esigenza di fissare principi e regole nel rapporto tra chi eroga i servizi e i cittadini che ne usufruiscono. Essa costituisce un vero e proprio “patto” con i fruitori, uno strumento di comunicazione e di informazione che permette loro di conoscere i servizi offerti, le modalità e gli standard promessi, di verificare che gli impegni assunti siano rispettati, di esprimere le proprie valutazioni anche attraverso forme di reclamo. L’adozione della Carta dei servizi è una delle iniziative volte a promuovere una più ampia valorizzazione del patrimonio culturale conservato nella Pinacoteca Accademia Carrara e ad adeguare per quanto possibile, in armonia con le esigenze della tutela e della ricerca, l’organizzazione delle attività alle aspettative degli utenti. La Carta sarà aggiornata con cadenza biennale per consolidare i livelli di qualità raggiunti e registrare i cambiamenti positivi intervenuti attraverso la realizzazione di progetti di miglioramento, che possono scaturire anche dal monitoraggio periodico dell’opinione degli utenti. Tale aggiornamento, a cura della Direzione della Fondazione e previa approvazione del CDA, avverrà comunque in caso di: • Modifica della normativa sugli standard dei servizi museali; • Nuove esigenze di servizio; • Suggerimenti e osservazioni degli utenti riconosciute di particolare peso. -
