  • A Virtual Train Journey Along the Mare Ligure from Ventimiglia to Rome
    Italian Culture Newsletter Number 22 A Virtual Train Journey along the Mare Ligure from Ventimiglia to Rome. Marie and I have made this journey on a number of occasions. In doing so we have either made the journey in a single day albeit with a change of train, usually at Genova. On other occasions, we have spent an evening or even a few days at Genova and/or at Livorno or Pisa. The journey described will involve more stops on the way but could be more interesting on that account. The trip begins in Ventimiglia where we stayed overnight on our last day of our last holiday in Italy. This had been occasioned by the French railway strike which prevented any trains from running from Ventimiglia to Nice on the day of our arrival from Rome into the city at the Italian- French border in Liguria. Our first visit to Ventimiglia was in 2006 when some Italian friends from Cuneo, due north of Ventimiglia, in Piemonte, met us at the rail station in Ventimiglia to take us for a short stay at their apartment in Nice. On that occasion we didn’t see much of the city except for part of the old medieval town, which now mostly is the home of many of the southerners from Naples, Calabria and Sicily who moved north seeking employment after WWII. The old town is perched high above the new city with its long sea-front promenade and railway station. Ventimiglia is the ancient Albium Intemelium, the capital of the Intemelii, a Ligurian tribe which long resisted the Romans, until in 115 BC it was forced to submit to Marcus Aemilius Scaurus.

  • Sinking Pisa: the Decline of a Commercial Empire in the Thirteenth Century”
    Matthew E. Parker “Sinking Pisa: The Decline of a Commercial Empire in the Thirteenth Century” Research Report The travel grant awarded by the History Project and INET (Institute for New Economic Thinking) enabled me to travel to Florence, Italy to conduct archival research in the Archivio di Stato di Firenze for six weeks during the summer of 2015. This investigation was the final research component for my dissertation, “Sinking Pisa: The Decline of a Commercial Empire in the Thirteenth Century,” exploring the fall of Pisan maritime efficacy in the late thirteenth century. A significant portion of my research involves the examination of wills, personal correspondence, treaties and statutes to reconstruct the economy, merchant networks, daily business, and material culture of Pisan men and women in the late thirteenth century. I use these sources to elucidate the deeper societal causes and lasting effects of the permanent destruction of the Pisan fleet at the Battle of Meloria (1284). The battle is conventionally recognized as the turning point, though as I argue not the cause, of Pisa’s commercial decline. In particular, I look for trends that presaged the decline of Pisan maritime power in the years leading up to the battle itself. By examining documents from the decades following the battle, I am uncovering the impact of the event upon the populace of the city as evinced by shifts in conceptions of communal identity, in prevailing political and social concerns, and in approaches to inter-city, inter-regional and international endeavors. I have opted for an interdisciplinary approach that rests firmly at the intersection of historical scholarship and economic analysis, believing that a composite image constructed from multiple approaches will finally permit a clearer rendering of this late chapter in the history of the Republic of Pisa.

  • Italy Officially the Italian Republic (Italian: Repubblica Italiana), Is a Unitary Parliamentary Republic in South-Central Europe
    Italy Italy officially the Italian Republic (Italian: Repubblica italiana), is a unitary parliamentary republic in south-central Europe. To the north it borders France, Switzerland, Austria and Slovenia along the Alps. To the south it consists of the entirety of the Peninsula, Sicily, Sardinia—the two largest islands in the Mediterranean Sea—and many other smaller islands. The independent states of San Marino and the Vatican are enclaves within Italy, whilst Campione d'Italia is an Italian exclave in Switzerland. The territory of Italy covers some 301,338 km2 (116,347 sq mi) and is influenced by a temperate seasonal climate. With 60.6 million inhabitants, it is the fifth most populous country in Europe, and the 23rd most populous in the world. Rome, the capital of Italy, was for centuries the political centre of Western civilisation as the capital of the Roman Empire. After its decline, Italy endured numerous invasions by foreign peoples, from Germanic tribes such as the Lombards and Ostrogoths, to the Byzantines and later, the Normans, among others. Centuries later, Italy became the birthplace of the Renaissance,[7] an immensely fruitful intellectual movement that would prove to be integral in shaping the subsequent course of European thought. Through much of its post-Roman history, Italy was fragmented into numerous kingdoms and city-states (such as the Kingdom of Sardinia, the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies and the Duchy of Milan), but was unified in 1861,[8] following a tumultuous period in history known as "Il Risorgimento" ("The Resurgence"). In the late 19th century, through World War I, and to World War II, Italy possessed a colonial empire, which extended its rule to Libya,Eritrea, Somalia, Ethiopia, Albania, the Dodecanese and a concession in Tianjin, China.[9] Modern Italy is a democratic republic.

  • Appendix for “The Feudal Revolution and Europe's Rise: Political
    Appendix for “The Feudal Revolution and Europe’s Rise: Political Divergence of the Christian West and the Muslim World before 1500 CE” August 1, 2012 1 Feudalism and Political Stability To formalize the intuition presented in Section 3.3 using a simple framework, suppose that a perfectly myopic, risk-neutral sovereign imperfectly controls a polity that creates output of size one each period. Denote by γ the amount of land controlled by the military regardless of the actions of the sovereign (this can be interpreted as the percentage of the entire polity controlled by the military). Suppose that there are N perfectly myopic, risk-neutral members of the military (where N is sufficiently large) and that γ is evenly distributed between the members of this class. We consider the parameter value γ exogenously given. A value of γ = 0 corresponds to a perfectly absolutist sovereign (who uses mamluks or mercenaries to staff his military) whereas higher values of γ denote more feudal arrangements. Note that our assumption of perfectly myopic agents allows us to abstract from the potentially important issue of how the sovereign compensates the military (i.e., iqta’ rents versus land grants).1 In addition, we abstract from other important issues in order to focus on the sovereign’s desire to prevent a successful revolt. We do so in order to highlight one mechanism that we believe contributes to the observed increase in ruler duration. The order of play in the game is as follows: after observing γ the sovereign moves first and decides whether to keep the entire amount of output he controls to himself or whether to divide it equally between himself and the military.
