ETC. WITH TWENTY-SEVEN ILLUSTRATIONS METHUEN & CO. 36 ESSEX STREET W.C. LONDON r TO R. LANGTON DOUGLAS WHO ALONE AMONG ENGLISH WRITERS HAS PROVED HIMSELF EQUALLY MASTER OF BOTH THE POLITICAL AND ARTISTIC HISTORY OF THE FAIREST OF TUSCAN CITIES THIS WORK IS GRATEFULLY DEDICATED BY THE AUTHOR ; PREFACE SOME years ago, I wrote a short account of the annual Sienese horse-races under the title of Our Lady of August and the Palio of Siena. That work, which was published and sold almost exclusively in Siena, met with so favourable a reception at the hands of the public and of authoritative Italian reviewers, that I might not unreasonably flatter myself that a second edition is needed. I have, however, preferred to re-write the entire book, and that for two reasons : the first, that there is much to omit the second, that there is more to add. Thus, the publication of Professor Langton Douglas' learned volume has enabled me to dispense with a large amount of matter which was only indirectly connected with my subject, and only necessary because no English History of Siena had, as yet, been written ; while, on the other hand, further study and research have taught me that I took too narrow a view of the Palio when I regarded it merely as a Sienese institution. A Sienese institution it is ; but it is something more. It is the last survivor of those old chivalric games which were played on all the piazze of Tuscany in the Middle Ages ; and it can no more be under- stood, if viewed alone, than the history of any one Italian Commune can be understood, if divorced from the history of its neighbours. In the present work, I have treated of many Palii besides — viii PREFACE the Palio of Siena, as well as of many kindred games notably those of Florence, Pisa and Perugia. I have, in fact, endeavoured to trace the history of athletic sport in Central Italy from the days of Dante to the present year of grace 1904. w. H. Villa Ventena, Siena, July 1904.

Quo fiunt Ludi varji ; et celebrantur honores Virginis et curru Tauri cervique trahuntur Viscera, et armatus sonipes, pro munere, certat. ViTTORio Campanicense, De ludo pugncB, AT the junction of the three hills whereupon Siena torreggia e siede, in the very centre of the city, stands the many-memoried Piazza del Campo. The same site was probably occupied by the vanished forum of the Roman Colony ; and here, peradventure, it was that the old Senensium plebes, as fierce, intractable and tumultuous as their mediaeval descendants, laid violent hands upon the senator Manlius Patruitus. Here, after the taking of Grosseto, on the day of St Mary of August, in the year of grace 1224, " the Sienese, for joy of that victory, held high festival and lighted bonfires and " closed the shops ; while before one of those same shops, on another gala-day, nearly a century later, Dante Alighieri stood, so absorbed in the study of an ancient codex that he read on undisturbed in spite of a great tournament that was going on and the mighty din of those who were round about. Here, four days after the battle of Montaperti, the men of Montalcino made submission before the victorious carroccio, "and were reconciled and accepted as subjects of the Magnificent Commune of Siena." Here Provenzano Salvani humbly begged alms of his fellow-citizens . per trar Tamico suo di pena. A I PALIO AND PONTE Here, in later times, the barattieri set up their booths, walled with branches and roofed with canvas, wherein the good citizens of Siena might lawfully play ad ludum zardi ; and here the candidates for knighthood erected their pavilions, and feasted all who came, giving and receiving gifts. Moreover, down to 1884—in which year the mercato nuovo was built where of old the criminals of the Republic were mutilated and put to death—the daily market was held in the Piazza, the positions to be occupied by the vendors of the different wares being fixed by statute as early as the 14th century. Nor has the Campo lacked its scenes of carnage and of tumult. Again and again have its, stones been crimsoned with blood and blackened by fire ; and, little more than a century ago, its beautiful old palaces looked down, calm and unmoved,—pray God for the last time, —upon such a scene of ferocity and suffering as can never have been surpassed throughout all the " splendid, stupid, glorious " Middle Ages. For here, on Friday, 28th July 1799, in the name of the Blessed Virgin of Comfort and to the cry of Viva Maria I a howling mob of fanatics, drunk with wine and slaughter, burned in one vast fire nineteen Jews, men and women together, using for the purpose the fragments of the Tree of Liberty, which had been set up before the Fonte Gaia, little more than three months earlier. In a word, the history of its Piazza is the history of Siena. That with which we are at present concerned is, however, the Palio ; and, for us, the Piazza is chiefly interesting in view of that fact, since it is here that the Palio is run twice yearly, on the 2nd July and the i6th August. And what manner of thing is this Palio ? Most of the Guide Books describe it as a horse-race.

In order to combat the unpleasant odors emanating from open sewers, insufficiently bathed neighbors, and, from time to time, the bodies of plague victims, a variety of perfumed goods such as fans, handkerchiefs, gloves, and “sweet bags” were available for purchase. The tradition of offering embroidered sweet bags containing gifts of small scented objects, herbs, or money began in the mid-sixteenth century. Typically, they are about five inches square with a drawstring closure at the top and two to three covered drops at the bottom. Economical housewives could even create their own perfumed mixtures to put inside. A 1621 recipe “to make sweete bags with little cost” reads: Take the buttons of Roses dryed and watered with Rosewater three or foure times put them Muske powder of cloves Sinamon and a little mace mingle the roses and them together and putt them in little bags of Linnen with Powder. The present object has recently been identified as a rare surviving example of a large-format sweet bag, sometimes referred to as a “sachet.” Lined with blue silk taffeta, the verso of the central canvas section contains two flat slit pockets, opening on the long side, into which sprigs of herbs or sachets filled with perfumed powders could be slipped to scent a wardrobe or chest.

Dino's book is in form the history of a particular fact, namely, the division of the Guelf party in Florence into the White and the Black Guelfs, with its attendant circumstances, its causes, and its results : but under this form is unfolded at the same time the history of the steps by which the wealthy traders of Florence (jfropolani, popolani grassi, and collectively popolo grasso) organised in the greater guilds (see Appendix II.) acquired and retained the control of the machinery of govern- ment in the city and its outlying territory (contado), excluding (practically) from all participation therein on the one hand the Magnates (i.e.
