Signed by the final Examining Committee: Chair Dr. Johanne Sloan Examiner Dr. Kristina Huneault Supervisor Dr. Steven Stowell Approved by Dr. Kristina Huneault, Graduate Program Director 2018 Dr. Rebecca Taylor Duclos, Dean of Faculty of Fine Arts Abstract La Donna e La Maniera Devota: Lavinia Fontana, Sacred Imagery and the Natural Sciences in Sixteenth-Century Bologna Marlene Misiuk Women’s contribution to the program of Counter-Reformation Christian art has often been overshadowed in scholarship by extensive research into genres typically associated with women in the period such as portraiture, landscape and still life. This thesis newly addresses the sacred artwork of the painter Lavinia Fontana (1552–1614) within the unique context of sixteenth-century Bologna, where the colourful social and intellectual network inspired, endorsed, and influenced her practice. Reassessing Fontana’s sacred images through a contextual framework, I focus on two prominent Bolognese figures: the archbishop Gabriel Paleotti (1522-1597), and the natural historian Ulisse Aldrovandi (1522-1605). Fontana’s sacred paintings follow Paleotti’s post- tridentine art theory by means of her rigorous attention to rendering Scripture clearly and accurately. She may have also enhanced the contemplative possibilities of her images by utilizing her knowledge of natural history. In some cases, paintings by Fontana may call attention to particular flora and fauna species to introduce meaningful symbolism. Upon addressing natural history in Bologna in further detail, it becomes apparent that the Bolognese were highly interested in “New World” knowledge, which undoubtedly had an impact on Italian perception, as well as European Christian art. Scripture, science, and natural history converge in this thesis to shed light on Fontana’s often overlooked religious art practice and what it could have meant to her beholders. iii Acknowledgements This thesis research would not have been possible without the mentorship, encouragement, and guidance of my supervisor, Dr. Steven Stowell. I am greatly indebted to Steven for sharing his knowledge, resources, and experience in academia. Steven was incredibly generous and patient in teaching me an art form in itself founded in the archives, the study and transcription of early modern manuscripts. His passion, ceaseless insight, and motivational support during my research propelled my work in every stage. He believed in me even in the moments where I felt I was faced with an arduous historical task. Working with Dr. Stowell has been a pleasure and an honour and I am forever grateful. I would also like to extend my thanks and gratitude to several others who enriched my academic experience. I am greatly thankful to my reader Dr. Kristina Huneault for her interest and support in my research topic at the time of presentation, as well as for her invaluable insight and feedback during final revisions. I would like to thank David Douglas whose research skills as a Latinist brought a fascinating extra dimension to my research into natural history. Thanks to Elisa Gamberini from the Archiepiscopal Seminary of Bologna who helped fulfill my lifelong dream of being able to spend solitary time studying a painting by Lavinia Fontana in such an incredible sacred space. Many thanks to the archival staff that welcomed me at the University of Bologna Library Aldrovandi archives and at the Rare Books Collection in the McGill University Library. I am also very grateful for the generous research funding I received at Concordia from the Department of Art History, the Faculty of Fine Arts, and the Morrie and Diane Cohen Graduate Award in Art History. Thank you to my mother Anna for her kindess and emotional support, and thanks to my father Peter for his interest in my passion for art history. Much love and gratitude to my partner Eric who helped me edit and revise my writing, and who seemingly never got tired of learning about Lavinia Fontana. Lastly, thanks to my friends and extended family for their encouragement and support through out my studies. This thesis is dedicated to my grandmother, Liliana Pelini, who was the embodiment of a true Renaissance woman. iv Table of Contents List of Figures ................................................................................................................................ vi Introduction ..................................................................................................................................... 1 Chapter I…………………………………………………………………………………………….

  • Musica Sanat Corpus Per Animam': Towar Tu Erstanding of the Use of Music
    `Musica sanat corpus per animam': Towar tU erstanding of the Use of Music in Responseto Plague, 1350-1600 Christopher Brian Macklin Doctor of Philosophy University of York Department of Music Submitted March 2008 BEST COPY AVAILABLE Variable print quality 2 Abstract In recent decadesthe study of the relationship between the human species and other forms of life has ceased to be an exclusive concern of biologists and doctors and, as a result, has provided an increasingly valuable perspective on many aspectsof cultural and social history. Until now, however, these efforts have not extended to the field of music, and so the present study representsan initial attempt to understand the use of music in Werrn Europe's responseto epidemic plague from the beginning of the Black Death to the end of the sixteenth century. This involved an initial investigation of the description of sound in the earliest plague chronicles, and an identification of features of plague epidemics which had the potential to affect music-making (such as its geographical scope, recurrence of epidemics, and physical symptoms). The musical record from 1350-1600 was then examined for pieces which were conceivably written or performed during plague epidemics. While over sixty such pieces were found, only a small minority bore indications of specific liturgical use in time of plague. Rather, the majority of pieces (largely settings of the hymn Stella coeli extirpavit and of Italian laude whose diffusion was facilitated by the Franciscan order) hinted at a use of music in the everyday life of the laity which only occasionally resulted in the production of notated musical scores.

  • Space, Street Prostitution and Women's Human Rights
    UNIVERSITY OF PADOVA European Master’s Degree in Human Rights and Democratisation A.Y. 2018/2019 Space, street prostitution and women’s human rights The effects of spatial segregation in the perpetuation of violence against women in prostitution Author: Clara Ferrerons Galeano Supervisor: Lorenza Perini ABSTRACT This thesis analyses the role of Italy in fostering violence against women in street prostitution. Since the National Law 125/2008 on urgent measures on public security was passed in this country, city councils have applied municipal ordinances at the local level that prohibit the practice of outdoor prostitution in the public space, thereby criminalising it. Feminist geographers and urbanists argue that spatial arrangements in the city play a key role in the experience of violence against women in urban spaces. As a socially marginalised group, women in prostitution are extremely vulnerable to violence, which is further emphasised when criminalisation of this practice obliges women to move to peripheric and isolated areas of the city or to start working indoors. Taking Padova as a paradigmatic example of the typology of municipalities that have legislated the most on street prostitution, this thesis critically engages with international women’s human rights standards and argues that two ordinances passed in this city in 2011 and 2014 represent a failure of the State to act with due diligence in preventing, protecting and prosecuting all forms of violence against women as provided in CEDAW and the Istanbul Convention. In addition, this thesis argues that violence against women in prostitution should not be regarded as a side-effect of this activity but rather as a structurally mediated gender-based discrimination that needs to be decidedly recognised as such at the international level if the universality of human rights is to be applied rigorously to all individuals.

CORSICAN ROOT AND BRANCH An Interview with Josephine Antherieu RTE: Josephine, you are from the island of Corsica and you had a rather clas- sical education. Was that what led you to Orthodoxy? JOSEPHINE: Yes. I was formerly a high-school teacher of philosophy and classical languages – Greek, Latin, and Old French. Later, I changed my pro- fession and am now a city planner for Aix-en-Provence. I no longer deal with abstract ideas, but with buildings and streets, things physical and concrete. My father died about about twenty years ago and now I have my mother, Silouani, my sister, Annie, and her son, Christophe. My grandmother lived until just recently. Our family is from the island of Corsica, and we are the first Orthodox Christians on Corsica since the schism. The way I came to Orthodoxy was like a fairy tale. One day I heard of a man who was said to be “spiritual,” and although I had never done anything like this before, I went to see him.

It begins by examining the combined importance of experience and testimony in Orta’s assessment of materia medica from India. It then considers the relevance of interaction and exchange of medical systems between the West and the East in the Portuguese physician’s understanding of medical knowledge and practices. Finally, it analyses how medical and botanical information provided by this work was reframed by Carolus Clusius and circulated in new forms in Europe.
