Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract This thesis explores the transmission of information about classical inscriptions and their use in historical scholarship between 1530 and 1603. It aims to demonstrate that antiquarians' approach to one form of material non-narrative evidence for the ancient world reveals a developed sense of history, and that this approach can be seen as part of a more general interest in expanding the subject matter of history and the range of sources with which it was examined. It examines the milieu of the men who studied inscriptions, arguing that the training and intellectual networks of these men, as well as the need to secure patronage and the constraints of printing, were determining factors in the scholarship they undertook. It then considers the first collections of inscriptions that aimed at a comprehensive survey, and the systems of classification within these collections, to show that these allowed scholars to produce lists and series of features in the ancient world; the conventions used to record inscriptions and what scholars meant by an accurate transcription; and how these conclusions can influence our attitude to men who reconstructed or forged classical material in this period. -
From the Library of Cosmo Alexander Gordon
FROM THE LIBRARY OF COSMO ALEXANDER GORDON Lucretius De Rerum Natura 1-27 Sixteenth century 28-33 Seventeenth century 34-53 Eighteenth century 54-79 Nineteenth century 80-90 Twentieth century 91-92 BERNARD QUARITCH LTD List 2015/3 [email protected] +44 (0)20 7297 4888 Introduction by Nicolas Barker ‘Cosmo and I found our tastes and interests were always in harmony and I came to love his particular sense of humour and gentle goodness, as well as to respect his unusual style of scholarship and general culture.’ So wrote his life-long friend, Geoffrey Keynes in The Gates of Memory. All those who knew him shared the same feeling of calm and contentment, leavened by humour, in his company. Something of this radiates from this residue of a collection of books, never large but put together with a discrimination, a sense of the sum of all the properties of any book, that give it a special quality. Cosmo Alexander Gordon was born on 23 June 1886, the son of Arthur and Caroline Gordon of Ellon, Aberdeen. Ellon Castle was a modest late medieval building, with eighteenth-century additions and yew avenue, the river Ythan running by, where Cosmo fished for salmon and sea-trout. Dr Johnson stayed there in 1773 and admired the local antiquities. So did Cosmo; his taste had extended to medieval manuscripts before he left Rugby for King’s in 1904, where it was nurtured by M. R. James. Although Keynes had also been at Rugby, they did not meet until both were at Cambridge, where Gordon introduced his new friend to David’s book-stall and seventeenth-century literature; they shared a passion for Browne and Fuller. -

LOCATING El GRECO in LATE SIXTEENTH-CENTURY

This may be in part attributed to the lack of firm documentary evidence regarding his activities there and to the small corpus of works that survive from his Italian period, many of which are furthermore controversial. The present study focuses on Domenicos’ Roman years and questions the traditional notion that he was a spiritual painter who served the principles of the Counter Reformation. To support such a view I have looked critically at the Counter Reformation, which I consider more as an amalgam of diverse and competitive institutions and less as an austere movement that strangled the freedom of artistic expression. I contend, moreover, that Domenicos’ acquaintance with Cardinal Alessandro Farnese’s librarian, Fulvio Orsini, was seminal for the artist, not only because it brought him into closer contact with Rome’s most refined circles, but principally because it helped Domenicos to assume the persona of ‘pictor doctus’, the learned artist, following the example of another of Fulvio’s friends, Pirro Ligorio. -

The Venetian conquest of the Mainland had not impacted greatly upon the internal affairs of newly conquered cities, and in Bergamo and Brescia the Republic decided merely to act as protectorate over the existing administrative framework. -
Il Vino Nella Storia Di Venezia Vigneti E Cantine Nelle Terre Dei Dogi Tra XIII E XXI Secolo Il Vino Nella Storia Di Venezia
Il vino nella storia di Venezia Vigneti e cantine nelle terre dei dogi tra XIII e XXI secolo Il vino nella storia di Venezia Biblos Biblos Venice and Viticulture Vines and Wines: the legacy of the Venetian Republic Venice and Viticulture Vines and Wines: the legacy of the Venetian Republic edited by Carlo Favero Using wine as one’s theme in recounting the long and complex history of Venice offers the reader an original insight into the past of the city and the territories it once ruled, a new way of looking at the monuments of a glorious past whose traces are still to be found in churches, art collections, libraries, public squares … and in gardens and vineyards. This is a book to read and a reference work for future consultation; a book that recounts not only history but also developments in technology and customs. The story told here covers the city’s links with the wine from its mainland and overseas possessions but also the wine produced within the lagoon itself. This is a relationship that dates back centuries, with the city’s magazeni and bacari serving at different points in history to satisfy the public taste for the different types of Malvasia and Raboso. And as the wine trade flourished, the Venetians showed all their entrepreneurial flair in serving markets throughout the known world. Indeed, it was in attempting to find even more distant markets for the Malvasia from Crete the Venetian nobleman Pietro Querini would end up shipwrecked on the Lofoten islands close to the Arctic circle, ironically discovering a new product himself: the stock fish (baccalà) that would then become very popular in Venice and the Venetian Republic. -

Leonardo's Literary Writings
Leonardo’s Literary Writings: History, Genre, Philosophy by Filomena Calabrese A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Italian Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Filomena Calabrese, 2011 Leonardo’s Literary Writings: History, Genre, Philosophy Filomena Calabrese Doctor of Philosophy Department of Italian Studies University of Toronto 2011 ABSTRACT: This dissertation examines Leonardo da Vinci’s literary writings, namely those known as the Bestiario, Favole, Facezie, and Profezia, as compelling expressions of how Leonardo envisioned the role and influence of morality in human life. Through an analysis of these four literary collections from the perspective of their genre history, literariness, and philosophical dimension, it aims to bring to light the depth with which Leonardo reflected upon the human condition. The Bestiario, Favole, Facezie, and Profezia are writings that have considerable literary value in their own right but can also be examined in a wider historical, literary, and philosophical context so as to reveal the ethical ideas that they convey. By studying them from a historical perspective, it is possible to contextualize Leonardo’s four collections within the tradition of their respective genres (the bestiary, fable, facetia, and riddle) and thus recognize their adherence as well as contribution to these traditions. The literary context brings to light Leonardo’s intentionality and ingenuity as a writer who uses generic conventions in order to voice his ethical views. Assessed from a philosophical standpoint, these four literary collections prove to be meaningful reflections on the moral state of humanity, thereby justifying the characterization of Leonardo as a moral philosopher.
