  • Burial, Exhumation, and Textual Materiality in British Romanticism
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE Entangled With the Dead: Burial, Exhumation, and Textual Materiality in British Romanticism A Dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English by Jessica Anne Roberson June 2017 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Adriana Craciun, Chairperson Dr. Susan Zieger Dr. Robb Hernandez Copyright by Jessica Anne Roberson 2017 The Dissertation of Jessica Anne Roberson is approved: _______________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________ Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside Acknowledgments I want to thank everyone who played some part in seeing this dissertation to fruition. First, I am indebted to my dissertation chair and advisor, Professor Adriana Craciun, for her thoughtful and generous guidance throughout my graduate career. She has the rare and valuable ability to be both rigorous and kind; while she challenges her students to rise to high expectations, she also helps them to see the value of the process and the worth of their accomplishments. My work would not be what it is today without her, and neither would my sanity. I must also thank Professor Susan Zieger, who has been an invaluable mentor during my time at UCR. She always asks questions that push and expand my work in ways I did not foresee, and encouraged me to publish and get my work out in public when I might have held it back out of anxiety. Professor Robb Hernandez’s conversation and constant good humor were also instrumental to the completion of this dissertation, particularly his encouragement to embrace my identity as “Grave Girl.” Thank you all for seeing value in my work and supporting this dissertation to the end.

  • No Italian Translation
    MASK OF BYRON DISPLAYS NEW FACE October 5, 2004 A WAX carnival mask worn by Lord Byron at the height of the great poet's passionate affair with a young Italian countess in the early 19th century goes on display in Rome today after a delicate restoration. The mask, worn by Byron at a Ravenna carnival in 1820, was given to the Keats-Shelley Memorial House 40 years ago. But Catherine Payling, 33, director of the museum, said she was shocked by its deterioration when taking over 15 months ago. The Keats-Shelley house, next to the Spanish Steps, where Keats died in 1821, contains memorabilia associated with Keats, Shelley and Byron, all of whom lived in Italy at the height of the Romantic movement. Byron had left England in 1816 after a series of affairs and a disastrous year-long marriage, to join a brilliant group of English literary exiles that included Shelley and his wife, Mary. In the spring of 1819, Byron met Countess Teresa Guiccioli, who was only 20 and had been married for a year to a rich and eccentric Ravenna aristocrat three times her age. The encounter, he said later, "changed my life", and from then on he confined himself to "only the strictest adultery". Byron gave up "light philandering" to live with Teresa, first in the Palazzo Guiccioli in Ravenna - conducting the affair under the nose of the count - and then in Pisa after the countess had obtained a separation by papal decree. In his letters to John Murray, his publisher, Byron said that carnivals and balls were "the best thing about Ravenna, when everybody runs mad for six weeks", and described wearing the mask - which originally sported a thick beard - to accompany the countess to the carnival.

    "Best Historic Locations in Rome" Created By: Cityseeker 81 Locations Bookmarked Monument of Victor Emmanuel / Il Vittoriano "A Witness to Glory" Il Vittoriano a fine white marble structure built under the auspices of newly installed King Victor Emmanuel and was inaugurated in 1911, a symbol of Italian unity. It has been the centerpiece for many important processions and moments of glory since Italy's reunification, including the by Richard Clifford parades of Mussolini that took place outside it. The statue of Emmanuel stands tall in front of this magnificent building along with the tomb of the unknown soldier nearby. The whole edifice has a massive and grandiose appearance covered in marble and atop sit two quadrigae of the goddess Victoria. Today, it houses an interesting museum which details the international and domestic intrigue which resulted in the Risorgimento, or the Reunification of the Country. Open hours vary by season. Call before visiting. +39 06 060 608 (Tourist Information) Piazza Venezia, Rome Palazzo Venezia "The Window of Power" Construction of this palace begun in 1455 for the Venetian cardinal, Pietro Barbi, who made it his residence. Construction of the first palace was completed shortly before his election to the Papacy in 1464 when he adopted the name Paul II. He then decided to amplify the palace and make it a dwelling worthy of a pope. The work continued until 20 years by Allie_Caulfield after the Pope's death and it underwent architectural transformations on several occasions over the centuries. In 1916 it was confiscated by the state of Italy which decided to make it the Palazzo Venezia museum, a role it still plays, as well as being the library of the National Institute of Archaeology and History of Art.

  • Exhibition Wall Texts
    At the foot of the Pyramid: 300 years of the cemetery for foreigners in Rome An exhibition by the Non-Catholic Cemetery in Rome and the Casa di Goethe in Rome INTRODUCTION: ARTISTS AND THE FOREIGNERS’ CEMETERY IN ROME “The most beautiful and solemn cemetery I have ever beheld” declared Percy Bysshe Shelley. The burial-ground for non-Catholic foreigners lies at the foot of the ancient pyramid-tomb of Caius Cestius (see map, Room 1). The contrast between the Protestants’ gravestones and Cestius’ massive monument appealed to many artists, both Italian and foreign. The exhibition brings together forty-three of their paintings, drawings and prints. It portrays its peaceful beauty while revealing how the cemetery developed and how artists responded to it. The pyramid appears in all but eight of the exhibits here. It remains a constant, looming presence while the landscape around it evolved. The land, the Meadows of the Roman People, was communal and mainly used for pasturage. But this changed with the erection of the Protestants’ stone monuments, especially after 1822 when the New Cemetery was laid out. A site of mourning for the foreign community in Rome displaced the grazing flocks which were excluded from both burial-grounds. Within that community there was a potential market for vedute of the cemetery. But several of the works exhibited here were produced not with that aim but as visual souvenirs of particular graves, commissioned by bereaved families or friends. Images of stone monuments to the dead have a timeless, static feel to them. Completely different are the dynamic representations of early funerals at the pyramid.
