Mantua SIMPLY WONDERFUL Piazza Sordello
MANTUA SIMPLY WONDERFUL Piazza Sordello MANTUA. SIMPLY WONDERFUL Those who arrive in Mantua are captivated by its unique, timeless allure and welcoming atmosphere. A city which enjoys a breathtaking panorama when viewed from the shores of its lakes. It appears as though it is suspended above the water, a protagonist of an almost surreal landscape, composed of a balance of history, art and nature. Mantua is a city to be visited with ample time, consideration and serenity. The city squares, passageways and cobblestone streets invite the visitor to slowly take in every one of its monuments and historic buildings in order to understand just why it has been declared by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site along with the neighboringneighbouring town of Sabbioneta. Mantua weaves history, art and culture together everywhere and it is surrounded by an unparalleled natural atmosphere. Unique and magical places that make Mantua simply wonderful. 2 View of the city Mantua at sunset 3 Sabbioneta MANTUA AND SABBIONETA: WORLD HERITAGE SITE July of 2008 is the month when Mantua and neighbouring Sabbioneta where introduced to the list of World Heritage Sites as a unique point of importance. Both cities enjoyed moments of great design importance during the renaissance. Designed and created by the same ruling family, the Gonzaga, two different but complimentary models were applied for each location. In fact, Sabbioneta is a newer city realized by Vespasiano Gonzaga in the second half of the sixteenth century as the ideal capital for his duchy; Mantua instead presents itself as a transformation of an existing city, which changed the ancient urban configuration. -
Shakespeare in Italy Richard Paul
8. From The Shakespeare Guide to Italy, by Richard Paul Roe 2011 ______________________________________________________________________________ Richard Paul Roe, who died soon after publishing The Shakespeare Guide to Italy,1 exemplifies the best of the Oxfordian mind. A retired attorney and Shakespeare enthusiast, Roe meticulously followed up every possible reference to Italy in the Works, and over 20 years visited each one. His discoveries show that “the playwright,” as Roe tactfully calls him, knew Italy at first hand and in detail. This single fact alone calls the traditional authorship account into question, since the Stratford grain dealer never left England. The earl of Oxford, on the other hand, extensively visited Italy, including all the towns, cities and regions featured in the plays and poems. The following extract from Chapter 8, “Midsummer in Sabbioneta” describes Roe’s exciting discovery of renaissance Italy’s “little Athens,” the true location of A Midsummer Night’s Dream Richard Paul Roe 1922-2010 . Roe’s book is illustrated with his and Stephanie Hopkins Hughes’s eloquent photographs captioned with witty and often illuminating comments. ______________________________________________________________________________ n my way from Verona to Florence, I made a stop-over for a few days in Mantua, to see the many great works of Giulio Romano (c. 1499-1546). 1t was a kind of pilgrimage: O Giulio Romano is the only Renaissance artist ever named by the playwright. His name is spoken by the Third Gentleman in The Winter’s Tale, V.ii: No: the princess hearing of her mother’s Statue, which is in the keeping of Paulina— A piece many years in doing and now newly Performed by that rare Italian master, Julio Romano, who, had he himself eternity and Could put breath into his work, would beguile Nature of her custom, so perfectly he is her ape … On a Sunday morning, a few days later, when ready to continue e on to Florence, I was chatting at breakfast with another traveler. -

Microfilm Publication M617, Returns from U.S
Publication Number: M-617 Publication Title: Returns from U.S. Military Posts, 1800-1916 Date Published: 1968 RETURNS FROM U.S. MILITARY POSTS, 1800-1916 On the 1550 rolls of this microfilm publication, M617, are reproduced returns from U.S. military posts from the early 1800's to 1916, with a few returns extending through 1917. Most of the returns are part of Record Group 94, Records of the Adjutant General's Office; the remainder is part of Record Group 393, Records of United States Army Continental Commands, 1821-1920, and Record Group 395, Records of United States Army Overseas Operations and Commands, 1898-1942. The commanding officer of every post, as well ad commanders of all other bodies of troops such as department, division, brigade, regiment, or detachment, was required by Army Regulations to submit a return (a type of personnel report) to The Adjutant General at specified intervals, usually monthly, on forms provided by that office. Several additions and modifications were made in the form over the years, but basically it was designed to show the units that were stationed at a particular post and their strength, the names and duties of the officers, the number of officers present and absent, a listing of official communications received, and a record of events. In the early 19th century the form used for the post return usually was the same as the one used for regimental or organizational returns. Printed forms were issued by the Adjutant General’s Office, but more commonly used were manuscript forms patterned after the printed forms. -

Kress Foundation, New York; [1] gift 1957 to NGA. [1] The Duveen Brothers Records document the firm’s sixteen year pursuit and eventual acquisition of the Dreyfus collection, which included paintings, sculptures, small bronzes, medals, and plaquettes. Bequeathed as part of his estate to Dreyfus’ widow and five children (a son and four daughters), who had differing opinions about its disposition, the collection was not sold until after his widow’s death in April 1929. Duveen did not wish to separate Dreyfus’ collection of small bronzes, medals, and plaquettes, and it was sold intact to the Kress Foundation for a price that was met by installment payments every three months.

Anna Irene Del Monaco
The Shri Radha-Radhanath Temple of Understanding in the formerly Indian township of Chatsworth, Durban. Photo: Anna Irene Del Monaco. 120 Theaters and cities. Flânerie between global north-south metropolis on the traces of migrant architectural models ANNA IRENE DEL MONACO, FRANCESCO MENEGATTI Sapienza Università di Roma; Politecnico di Milano [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract: Theaters around the world are linked by architectural features besides programs and music. (AIDM: A.I. Del Monaco; FM: Francesco Menegatti) The conversation begins by commenting on the concert by Martha Argerich and Daniel Baremboim with the Orchestra Filarmonica della Scala held in Piazza Duomo on May 12, 2016 in Milan. The Concerto in Sol by Ravel is scheduled in the program. The hybrid Neoclassicism of theaters in the modern city between the Eighteenth and Nineteenth centuries: the Teatro alla Scala in Milan - the Teatro Colon in Buenos Aires - the Bolshoi Theater in Moscow - the Sans Souci Theater in Kolkata - the Teatro Massimo in Palermo. AIDM: The Argerich-Baremboim concert and the La Scala Philharmonic Orchestra set up in Piazza Duomo en plein air with 40,000 spectators seems to have been a great success. The two ultra-seventies artists, born in Argentina, seemed at their ease ... two classical music stars within the scenography of Milan urban scenes ... the Cathedral on the right of the stage and the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele in front of the orchestra. This shows how the urban architecture of Italian historical cities, even when it is composed of architectures from different eras, is able to represent a perfect stage, both formal and informal, and the music is always done on the street, en plein air, as we learn, among other things, from the quintet of Luigi Boccherini of 1780 Night music on the streets of Madrid. -

Realms of Remembered Violence: the Emergence of Mass Murder Memorials in the United States, 1986-2012
Realms of Remembered Violence: The Emergence of Mass Murder Memorials in the United States, 1986-2012 Jordan Hill Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Social, Political, Ethical & Cultural Thought Marian B. Mollin, Chair Francois Debrix Howard S. Gartner David Cline Kathleen W. Jones September 23, 2014 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: Mass Murder Memorial, Memory, Ritual, Commemoration, Nationalism, Memorialization, Spatial History, U.S. History Copyright 2014, Jordan Hill Realms of Remembered Violence: The Emergence of Mass Murder Memorials in the United States, 1986-2012 Jordan Hill ABSTRACT This research explores the new tradition of creating mass murder memorials in the United States at the turn of the twenty-first century. Using written and oral history sources in combination with memorial designs, I explore the planning processes undertaken by five different communities: Virginia Tech, Columbine, University of Texas, Oklahoma City and Edmond, OK. I analyze what these case studies reveal about how changing cultural expectations and political needs transformed commemorative practices concerning violence in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. By exposing how the timely interventions of national figures increasingly shaped local commemorative aspirations, my research illuminates how the brief period of national unity in the immediate aftermath has been discursively and materially foregrounded as the heart of national public memory narratives of mass murder. I argue that at the turn of the twenty- first century the memory of victims of mass murders—assuming something akin to the role that fallen soldiers have played for the bulk of American history—are now viewed by a range of political, religious and cultural actors as a highly effective means of bolstering perceptions of local, organizational and national unity.
