DELIBERAZIONI MISTE: The Istituto Veneto di Scienze, Lettere ed Arti is publishing the registers of the Venetian Senate for the period up to the war of Chioggia (1381), in a total of twenty volumes. This will make available documentary material of ex- traordinary importance for historic research. The Consiglio dei Rogati o dei Pregadi (Consilium Rogatorum), later the Senate, was possibly set up in 1229-1230 as an organ of support to the Great Council.

    RESEARCH REPORt 2010—2012 MAX-PLANCK-INSTITUT FÜR WISSENSCHAFTSGESCHICHTE Max Planck Institute for the History of Science Cover: Aurora borealis paintings by William Crowder, National Geographic (1947). The International Geophysical Year (1957–8) transformed research on the aurora, one of nature’s most elusive and intensely beautiful phenomena. Aurorae became the center of interest for the big science of powerful rockets, complex satellites and large group efforts to understand the magnetic and charged particle environment of the earth. The auroral visoplot displayed here provided guidance for recording observations in a standardized form, translating the sublime aesthetics of pictorial depictions of aurorae into the mechanical aesthetics of numbers and symbols. Most of the portait photographs were taken by Skúli Sigurdsson RESEARCH REPORT 2010—2012 MAX-PLANCK-INSTITUT FÜR WISSENSCHAFTSGESCHICHTE Max Planck Institute for the History of Science Introduction The Max Planck Institute for the History of Science (MPIWG) is made up of three Departments, each administered by a Director, and several Independent Research Groups, each led for five years by an outstanding junior scholar. Since its foundation in 1994 the MPIWG has investigated fundamental questions of the history of knowl- edge from the Neolithic to the present. The focus has been on the history of the natu- ral sciences, but recent projects have also integrated the history of technology and the history of the human sciences into a more panoramic view of the history of knowl- edge. Of central interest is the emergence of basic categories of scientific thinking and practice as well as their transformation over time: examples include experiment, ob- servation, normalcy, space, evidence, biodiversity or force.

Transnational, national, and local perspectives on Venice and Venetia within the ʻmultinationalʼ empire The so-called seconda dominazione austriaca of Venice and Venetia lasted from 1814 to 1866, punctuated only by the revolutionary parenthesis of 1848–9. This half century of rule from Vienna has traditionally been seen as a period of exploitative and insensitive government backed by heavy- handed policing, restrictive censorship, and ultimately dependent on the presence of regiments of white-coated Croat and Austrian troops.

  • Venice, Childe Harold IV and Beppo, July 30Th 1817-January 7Th 1818
    116 Venice, Childe Harold IV and Beppo, July 30th 1817-January 7th 1818 Venice, 1817 July 30th 1817-January 7th 1818 Edited from B.L.Add.Mss. 47234. In the notes, “J.W.” indicates assistance from Jack Wasserman, to whom I’m most grateful. Hobhouse has been on a tour of Italy since December 5th 1816, and hasn’t seen Byron – who’s just moved from Venice to La Mira – since Byron left Rome on May 20th. For the next five-and-a-half months he’s with Byron in Venice and the surrounding area. Byron is for the most part polishing Childe Harold IV, and Hobhouse takes upon himself the task of annotating it. The truly significant event, however – which neither man fully understands, and Hobhouse never will – is when Byron, having read Hookham Frere’s Whistlecraft, suddenly composes Beppo on October 9th. Venice is held by Austria, which is systematically running down its economy so that the poor are reduced to eating grass. Hobhouse glances at the state of the place from time to time. His terribly British account of the circumcision ceremony on August 2nd implies much about what Byron found fascinating about the city – though Byron would never put such feelings into explicit prose. Wednesday July 30th 1817: I got up at four – set off half past five, and, crossing the Po, went to Rovigo, three posts and a half. A long tedious drive, in flats. From Rovigo I went to Padua without going five miles out of my way to see Arquà in the Euganean Hills – Petrarch’s tranquil place – it was too hot – the thermometer at eighty-three in the shade.

  • Foreign Rule? Transnational, National, and Local Perspectives on Venice and Venetia Within the ʻmultinationalʼ Empire
    David Laven with Laura Parker Foreign Rule? Transnational, national, and local perspectives on Venice and Venetia within the ʻmultinationalʼ empire The so-called seconda dominazione austriaca of Venice and Venetia lasted from 1814 to 1866, punctuated only by the revolutionary parenthesis of 1848–9. This half century of rule from Vienna has traditionally been seen as a period of exploitative and insensitive government backed by heavy- handed policing, restrictive censorship, and ultimately dependent on the presence of regiments of white-coated Croat and Austrian troops. Such a leggenda nera of Habsburg tyranny has been challenged for some decades (Berengo, 1971), but there has persisted a tendency to view the rule of Francis I, Ferdinand, and Francis Joseph as a sombre and unhappy interlude between the fall of the Serenissima and the incorporation of Venice and its Terraferma within the newly united Italian state. More than thirty years ago Paul Ginsborg told us in his brilliant study of Daniele Manin that ‘the principles and requirements of the Austrians were in contradiction to the needs and aspirations of nearly every section of Venetian society’ (Ginsborg, 1979, 2); the failure to make significant changes in his recent Italian re-edition of the book demonstrates that he still believes there is no reason to alter this judgment (Ginsborg, 2007). Meanwhile, the Habsburgs’ acquisition of Venice remains for one respected British historian no more than ‘a mercenary transfer’ (Evans, 2009, 124). A more balanced view of Austrian rule has emerged
