UC Irvine FlashPoints Title Wings for Our Courage: Gender, Erudition, and Republican Thought Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4wp0h5bx Author Jed, Stephanie H. Publication Date 2011-07-01 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Wings for Our Courage flashpoints The series solicits books that consider literature beyond strictly national and disciplin- ary frameworks, distinguished both by their historical grounding and their theoretical and conceptual strength. We seek studies that engage theory without losing touch with history and work historically without falling into uncritical positivism. FlashPoints aims for a broad audience within the humanities and the social sciences concerned with mo- ments of cultural emergence and transformation. In a Benjaminian mode, FlashPoints is interested in how literature contributes to forming new constellations of culture and history and in how such formations function critically and politically in the present.

Finally, at project’s end, I have the opportunity to thank and appreciate my teacher Paolo Valesio. From the first, he encouraged me to take in- tellectual risks. When he wisely advised me many years ago not to mix my research on Lorenzino with my newer projects, I didn’t follow his advice. Now, however, I am satisfied that this book is a better tribute to all that I learned from Valesio . a stylistic expansiveness, a sense of critique, an interest in theorizing practice and practicing theory, and an ability to connect with my sources through writing. Thank you, Paolo, for giving me the tools I would need on this journey. I have been blessed with many more teachers, colleagues, friends, and family members who have generously supported and encouraged my work along the way and to whom I am deeply grateful: Leonard and Florence Jed, Erica Jed, John Freccero, Hayden White, Marga- ret Brose, Mary-Kay Gamel, Harry Berger, the Galassi Beria family, the Majnoni family, Luciana Siddivò and family, Maurizio Sabini, the Calitri/Bagatella family, Teresa de Lauretis, William Tay, Mar- git Frenk, Jaime Concha, Page duBois, Roy Harvey Pearce, Cecilia Ubilla, Armando Petrucci, Franca Nardelli, Grazia Peduzzi, Alberto Rollo, Vittoria Salierno, Carlos Blanco Aguinaga, Marta Sanchez, Rosaura Sanchez, Andrew Wright, Susan Kirkpatrick, Lori Cham- berlain, Julie Hemker, Lisa Lowe, Bett Miller, Jennifer Robertson, xiii xiv | Acknowledgments Maria Teresa Koreck, Michael Meranze, Robert Westman, Randolph Starn, Carlo Ginzburg, Paula Findlen, Luce Giard, Susan Larsen, Nicole Tonkovich, Kathryn Shevelow, Pasquale Verdicchio, Adri- ana De Marchi Gherini, Michael Davidson, Winnie Woodhull, Jorge Mariscal, Roddey Reid, Todd Kontje, Don Wayne, Louis Montrose, Oumelbanine Zhiri, Seth Lerer, John Marino, Janet Smarr, Lisa Lampert-Weissig, Marguerite Waller, Richard Terdiman, Albert As- coli, Barbara Spackman, Carla Freccero, Natalie Zemon Davis, Jane Newman, Jane Tylus, Dianella Gagliani, Luciano Casali, Lorna Hut- son, Deanna Shemek, Michael Wyatt, Gianni Celati, Watson Branch, Heather Fowler, Michelle Stuckey, Lisa Vernoy, and Mary Eyring.

    Cardinals, Inquisitors, and Jesuits: Curial Patronage and Counter-Reformation in Cosimo I's Florence

    Cardinals, Inquisitors, and Jesuits: Curial Patronage and Counter-Reformation in Cosimo I’s Florence Gregory Murry Cet article analyse les motivations du duc de Florence Côme I qui l’ont amené à soute- nir l’inquisition et les activités des jésuites entre 1540 et 1560. À travers l’examen de la correspondance gouvernementale et des archives concernant les bénéfices Toscan, cette étude met en lumière les liens entre le mécénat de la curie et les instances de la réforme Catholique, sous trois aspects interreliés. Premièrement, Côme n’a pas rompu ses liens spirituels avec Rome, puisque cela aurait mis en danger les intérêts séculiers de son réseau de clients, qui ceux-ci avaient une grande activité au sein des États Papaux. Deuxiè- mement, étant donné cette restriction, le duc a dû établir des liens avec des cardinaux de la curie pouvant lui garantir des faveurs séculières et spirituelles pour son réseau de clients. Troisièmement, par la suite, ces mêmes cardinaux ont profité de leur position stratégique pour renverser le rapport de force et ainsi imposer l’inquisition et les Jésuites au gouvernement florentin réticent. ith its large, literate middle class and burgeoning capitalist economy, Florence Wshould have been a city ripe for reformation. Indeed, if sociological considera- tions alone mattered, Cosimo I’s nasty personal relationship with Pope Paul III would have exploded into outright revolt, and the networks of heretical opinion circulating among the city’s cultured elite would have found fertile ground on Tuscan soil.1 However, sociology seems ill-suited to explain why Italy stayed Catholic since Italy had its cities, artisans, merchants, and nascent capitalism long before England, France, or Germany.

While we are naturally always inclined to love, those people give themselves over to love things that are hardly fruitful, only for their own pleasure, such as Paintings, Sculptures, medals, or similar things. And they love them so dearly that those same things manage to satisfy their desires, as if their desire had been satisfied by real Love that has to be between man and woman.1 Giuseppe Orologi, comment on Ovid’s Metamorphoses (1578) As Giuseppe Orologi, a writer with connections to Titian, makes clear in his commentary on Ovid’s story of the sculptor Pygmalion, some people of his 1 ‘L’amore di Pigmaleone, alla figura di Avorio fatta da le sue mani, ci da essempio

    !NNALIDISTORIADIFIRENZE ) Avvertenza Le pagine a seguire forniscono, per gli anni 2001 e 2002, un elenco ordi- nato alfabeticamente per autore dei volumi, dei saggi in opere collettanee e degli articoli su riviste attinenti la storia fi orentina. Tale materiale, ugualmente suddiviso in tre sezioni, è disponibile anche nel portale «Storia di Firenze» nella sezione «Bibliografi a» dove è possibile trovare anche il link alla scheda del vo- lume disponibile nel catalogo delle case editrice (htpp://www.dssg.unifi .it/sdf/ bibliografi a.html). Nel prossimo numero degli «Annali» comparirà la bibliogra- fi a relativa al biennio 2003-2004. L’eccezionale vastità della produzione scientifi ca su Firenze e l’assenza di uno strumento unico di aggiornamento bibliografi co al riguardo, oltre ad essere il motivo essenziale di questo lavoro ne rappresenta anche il principale elemento di diffi coltà. Per gli intenti del portale, il profi lo scientifi co e gli interessi dei membri della redazione, la cultura fi losofi ca e letteraria e la storia delle arti fi - gurative risultano relativamente in secondo piano rispetto ai temi storiografi ci. La ricerca di cui queste pagine sono il frutto ha infatti integrato risorse diverse (bibliografi e on-line, siti di case editrici, segnalazioni su riviste e spogli di data- base bibliografi ci), nell’intento, non sempre di facile realizzazione, di isolare materiali propriamente riferiti alla storia di Firenze e omettendo una consimile ricerca in fonti a carattere storico-artistico o storico-letterario. Ci auguriamo che questa consapevole limitazione, anziché indebolire l’effi cacia del nostro lavoro, ne precisi la consistenza e quindi la fruibilità per i lettori.

    Cinema Ritrovato Di Gian Luca Farinelli, Vittorio Martinelli, Nicola Mazzanti, Mark-Paul Meyer, Ruud Visschedijk

    Cinema Ritrovato di Gian Luca Farinelli, Vittorio Martinelli, Nicola Mazzanti, Mark-Paul Meyer, Ruud Visschedijk Iniziamo dalla foto che abbiamo scelto per il manifesto, perché è un’immagine rivelatrice dell’identità di questo festival. Ad un primo sguardo non suscita un interesse particolare. È la foto di scena di un film qualsiasi prodotto in un periodo in cui di cinema se ne faceva tanto, un’immagine come tante. Però se la guardiamo meglio vediamo che al centro della foto c’è uno dei grandi attori del cinema italiano, Aldo Fabrizi, il Don Pietro di Roma città aperta, alle prese con la giustizia. Ci accorgiamo anche che il set è il lato sud di Piazza Maggiore; si scorgono il Palazzo del Podestà, San Petronio, il Nettuno, Palazzo de’ Banchi. L’immagine inizia a intrigarci. Siccome il cinema italiano è da sempre fortemente romano, pochissimi sono stati i film girati a Bologna, almeno sino agli anni ’60. Ecco perché Hanno rubato un tram, il film da cui abbiamo sottratto quest’immagine, è una vera scoperta che ci giunge dal passato. Nonostante si tratti di una piccola produzione, di un film modesto, di cui all’epoca nessuno si accorse, poterlo vedere oggi è un’esperienza straordinaria perché ci porta nella Bologna di quarantasei anni fa e ci fa sentire tutta la distanza del tempo, le dimensioni della trasformazione, l’ampiezza dei cambiamenti, esperienza tanto più forte perché si tratta di immagini inaspettate di un film dimenticabile, che nessuno vedeva più da decenni. Il film è anche un curioso incontro tra generazioni diverse del cinema italiano.

    History 600. European historiography from Antiquity to the Enlightenment University of Massachusetts Amherst Fall Semester 2000 Wed. 9–12, Massachusetts Center for Renaissance Studies (or Herter 400) Prof. Brian W. Ogilvie Office: Herter 624, (413) 545-1599 Home Phone: (802) 388-9676 Thursday – Monday (before 10 PM please) E-mail: [email protected] Office hours: Tues. 11–11:45, Wed. 2–3:30, Thurs. 11–11:45, and by appointment. Brief description of course Examination of the method, style, and purpose of history from antiquity (Greek and Hebrew historiography) through the eighteenth century. We will read selected histories from the past and recent studies on the nature of historiography. Some questions that will motivate our discussions include: · Is history a unitary discipline? Do specific traits separate it from other ways of looking at the past? Are these traits methodological, metaphysical, or both? · How have the subject matter and style of history changed within the Western tradition? · Did history undergo a radical transformation in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries? If so, what changed and why? · What have different cultural traditions contributed to Western approaches to understanding and explaining the past? · What can historians in the twenty-first century learn from the history of their discipline? Summary of requirements: 3 10-page papers, oral presentations, discussion. Course goals At the end of this course, you should be better able to: · Understand the development of the Western historical tradition from antiquity to the Enlightenment and speak knowledgeably about them. · Understand how modern historians address the history of their field. · Relate these developments to your own historical interests and writing.

My advisors Paul Barolskyand David Summers first encouraged me to pursue my studies of the Polifilo; their unflagging support sustained me throughout, and their example continues to inspire me to follow in Poliphilo's path.

I also wish to expressmy gratitude to Anne Schutte, Alistair Fowler, Deborah Parker, Martin Colker, and Terry Bellanger for stimulating conversations and generous advice, and Martin Colker and Thomas Govero for their assistance with the translations of Leonardo Grassi's dedication of the Polifiloand Ludovico Odassio's dedication of the Comucopiae.
