Likhachev (1862- 1936), Member of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, stored in the Western European section of the Saint Petersburg Institute of History of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the preparation of their full-text critical publication. The lettere ducali are an excellent source to study the Serenissima and its continental and overseas domains. The source material of the Venetian lettere ducali have long and not without reason been considered and actively investigated by researchers as one of the most important sources on the economic, social, political, legal, environmental, cultural, and ethnic history of Venice. -
Venice's Ceremonial Treatment of the Ottoman and Safavid Envoys In
OTAM, 48 /Güz 2020, 85-109 Venice’s Ceremonial Treatment of the Ottoman and Safavid Envoys in Comparative Perspective Osmanlı Ve Safevî Elçilerinin Venedik'te Kabul Törenleri Karşılaştırmalı Perspektifte Ahmad GULIYEV Abstract Taking a comparative perspective and drawing on the documents from the Venetian State Archives, the paper attempts to examine a ceremonial treatment of the Ottoman and Safavid diplomats in Venice. Both the Ottoman and Safavid envoys usually were graciously received in Venice. However, the degree of the Venetian hospitality was subject to changes and varied in accordance to the importance of the incoming mission and overall nature of its relations with the Ottomans and Safavids. It appears from the receptions of the Ottoman and Safavid diplomats in Venice that during the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, the ceremonial positions of the sultan’s envoys were equal or mostly above that of the Qızılbaş representatives. As it is evident from the Safavid Asad bey’s case in 1600, in its treatment of the Safavid envoys, Venetian government pursued a cautious policy and tried not to antagonize the Ottomans. Furthermore, the Ottoman factor had enduring impact both on the nature and on the dynamics of the Safavid-Venetian relations. Key words: Safavid-Venetian relations, Ottoman-Venetian relations, Safavid envoys, early modern diplomacy, diplomatic ceremonial. The paper was written within a research project titled “SAFVEN-West meets East in Venice: Cross-cultural interactions and reciprocal influences between the Safavids and Venetians” financed from the support of European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Individual Fellowship grant agreement No 789632. -

Venice and Its Law System. Summary
SILVIA GASPARINI Venice and its law system. A peculiar experience © Silvia Gasparini, July 2001 Summary 1. By way of an introduction 2. Uniqueness and paradox 3. The modern age: how to cope with change 4. Venetian government: strenghts and weaknesses 5. The councils and the magistrates 6. The secretaries 7. Conclusion & Bibliographical note 1. By way of an introduction An order among phenomena can be achieved in two opposite ways. One of them is building an a priori structure of equal-sized “boxes”, interconnected according to a fixed rule of hierarchy. A typical instance are bifurcation fractals or the Dewey system for cataloguing books. Such a structure allows for little or no feedback from the phenomena themselves: each is stuck into the correct box according to its relevant qualities as stated by given rules. Some boxes will be crowded, others empty. (image 1: Bifurcation fractal, © Brad Johnson) 1 Inner logic, not actual results or the time factor, is key in this structure; but if time is added to the model, some boxes will fill up, others will lose elements, as it happens in the Dewey catalogue in a library when new books are published on formerly neglected or non-existent topics and old ones eventually perish. In terms of governmental institutions, such a model can be found in contemporary States endowed with a rigid constitution, or constitutional code of laws. Such a constitution works like a sort of blueprint, engineered a priori , where the functions of the government, its operative bodies and their reciprocal relationships are predetermined according to a set of few basic rules. -
The Immortal Fausto: the Life, Works, and Ships of the Venetian
THE IMMORTAL FAUSTO: THE LIFE, WORKS, AND SHIPS OF THE VENETIAN HUMANIST AND NAVAL ARCHITECT VETTOR FAUSTO (1490-1546) A Dissertation by LILIA CAMPANA Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Cemal Pulak Committee Members, Deborah N. Carlson Kevin Crisman Craig W. Kallendorf Head of Department, Cynthia Werner August 2014 Major Subject: Anthropology ABSTRACT At the beginning of the sixteenth century, the maritime power of the Republic of Venice was seriously threatened by the Ottoman Sultan Suleiman I in the East, and by the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V in the West. In order to regain its naval power in the Mediterranean, the Republic of Venice strongly encouraged Venetian shipwrights to submit new designs for war galleys. The undisputed founder and champion of this naval program was not a skilled shipwright but a young professor of Greek in the School of Saint Mark named Vettor Fausto (1490-1546), who in the heat of this renewal programme, proposed “naval architecture” as a new scientia. In 1529, Vettor Fausto built a quinqueremis whose design, he claimed, was based upon the quinquereme “used by the Romans during their wars” and that he had derived the shipbuilding proportions “from the most ancient Greek manuscripts.” The recovery of Classical traditions resulted in major changes in many fields. It included shipbuilding practices as well, especially after Fausto introduced in the Venetian Arsenal a new scientia, that of “naval architecture”, in opposition to the fabrilis peritia, the empirical shipbuilding practice. -
