The interesting facade, with stonework by Finale and grotesques by T. Carlone, the impressive entrance stairway, the galleried hall, the two side hanging gardens have all made this a wonderful location for the Genovese town council.

CONCA MESSINA (University of Milan) Roberto TOLAINI (University of Genoa) Opening a debate: Nobility and economic transformation in 19th century Northern-Italy: (please do not quote without authors’ permission) Abstract During the 19th century, in northern Italian regions a large proportion of capital, investments and improvements in the agricultural sector and agro-food production, as well as, increasingly, in railways and infrastructures, industrial and financial sectors – came from noblemen. They aimed to expand their own revenues, fostering economic progress and applying scientific and technological innovations to agriculture and industry. Several noblemen played a leading economic role, as they were the richest, heirs to large properties and estates and to complex administration systems originating from early modern times and updated to meet the new managerial necessities. They often held scientific interests (and sometimes scientific knowledge), and belonged to wide, national and international social (and political) networks which could easily be used for economic goals. The paper aims to open a debate on the role of nobility as a powerful economic élite in the economic development of northern Italy, basing on the initial results of ongoing research into primary sources. The literature on the topic has focused on several cases of Italian entrepreneurial noblemen, or on nobility estate management, and has shed light on their dynamic role.

    FONDAZIONE GIORGIO CINI ISTITUTO ITALIANO ANTONIO VIVALDI MYRIAM ZERBI A FLOW OF MUSIC ANTONIO VIVALDI AT THE ORIGINS OF A REDISCOVERY VENEZIA FONDAZIONE GIORGIO CINI 2020 This book recounts the circumstances leading up to the foundation of the Istituto Italiano Antonio Vivaldi, established by Antonio Fanna and Angelo Ephrikian on 23 January 1947. It retraces the sometimes surprising adventures in postwar Italy that took the two protagonists from the dream of reviving the Red Priest’s music to the publication of his complete instrumental works. Using the le琀ers of the leading players, contemporary press reports and the personal memories of one of the founders, the author reconstructs the Istituto’s vicissitudes focusing especially on its first years, full of high emotions, enterprise and tenacity, in a war-torn country where a desire for renewal was everywhere palpable, through to 1978 when it was donated by Antonio Fanna to become part of the Fondazione Giorgio Cini in Venice. The story, which is enlivened with a copious apparatus of images and documents, unfolds through the personal testimonies of those involved: Angelo Ephrikian, who dreamed the original dream, Antonio Fanna, who laid the practical foundations of the Istituto and ran it for 昀fty years, Alfredo Gallinari the enabling benefactor, who until now has remained, by his own wish, anonymous, Francesco Continetto, the copyist, who transcribed over 昀ve hundred of Vivaldi’s manuscripts, Gian Francesco Malipiero, the Istituto’s artistic director and editor of the greater part of the Venetian composer’s music, and Eugenio Clause琀i the enlightened head of the music publisher Casa Ricordi.
