The book uses a case study approach to examine educational practices LQWKHQRUWKHDVWHUQ,WDOLDQFLW\RI%HUJDPRIURPWR 1650. Carlsmith illustrates how education in this and other Venetian cities was affected by Renaissance humanism, Tridentine Catholicism, and Venetian domination, and how cooperation among various institutions resulted in a surprising array of options for schooling in these provincial cities. A Renaissance Education’s close analysis of civic, ecclesiastical, confraternal, and family records not only paints a vivid portrait of how schooling functioned in one city but also explores this small city’s dynamic interconnections with other locales and with larger regional processes. TRADING PLACES: Brill announces the publication of Trading Places: The Netherlandish Merchants in Early Modern Venice by Maartje van Gelder.

The Netherlandish merchants in Venice, as part of an extensive international trading network, were ideally placed to connect Mediterranean and Atlantic commerce.

Chronologisch führt der Autor durch die Geschichte der 1895 als kleine Kunstausstellung gestarteten Ausstellungsreihe, die mit der Übernahme des nationalen Pavillonkonzepts 1907 vor und nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg große Erfolge feiern konnte. Die internationale Resonanz auf die Biennale, die anhand zahlreicher Quellen dokumentiert wird, war ein Garant für diesen Erfolg.

Die Arbeit endet mit dem Jahr 1948, dem Startpunkt der bis heute anhaltenden Erfolgsgeschichte, deren Grundlagen jedoch in den Entwicklungen der ersten 50 Jahre ihres Bestehens liegen. Der Autor zeigt, wie intensiv und wie konsequent Venedig die Chance ergriffen hat, aus einem alle zwei Jahre wiederkehrenden kulturellen Großereignis einen wichtigen Motor des modernen Lebens in der Lagunenstadt zu machen. Hier galt es wichtige Forschungslücken zu schließen, aber auch Erkenntnisse verschiedener Disziplinen zusammenzufassen. Es wird deutlich, dass die Flexibilität und ,QQRYDWLRQVIUHXGHYRUDOOHPDEHUDXFKGLHYRQ%HJLQQDQ feste Verwurzelung in Politik und Wirtschaft maßgeblich zum Erfolg der Biennale beigetragen haben.

THE BOOK OF HUMAN SKIN: Bloomsbury announces the publication of The Book of Human Skin, a new historical novel by Michelle Lovric. Midday, 13th May, 1784: An earthquake in Peru tears up the white streets of Arequipa. As the dust settles, a young girl with fanaticism already branded on her face arrives at the devastated convent of Santa Catalina. At the same moment, oceans away in Venice, the infant Minguillo Fasan tears his way out of his mother’s womb. The great Palazzo Espagnol, built on Peruvian silver and New World drugs, has an heir. Twelve years later, Venice is in Napoleon’s sights and Minguillo, who has already contrived to lose one sibling, is listening to the birth-cries of his new sister Marcella, a delicate, soft-skinned threat to his inheritance. Meanwhile, at Santa Catalina, the scarred young girl has become Sor Loreta, whose craving for sainthood is taking a decidedly sinister turn. Minguillo’s livid jealousy will condemn his sister to a series of fates as a cripple, a madwoman and a nun. But Marcella Fasan is not quite the soft target Minguillo imagines. Aided by a loyal servant, an irascible portrait-painter, a young doctor obsessed with skin, a warhorse of a Scottish merchant and a cigar-smoking pornographer nun, Marcella SLWVKHUVHQVHRIKXPRXUKHUFOHYHUSHQFLODQGKHUÀHUFH heart against Minguillo’s pitiless machinations. Her journey takes her from Napoleon’s shamed Venice to the last picaresque days of colonial Peru – where the fanatical Sor Loreta has plans of her own for the young girl from Venice. The Book of Human Skin is a story of unmitigated villainy, Holy Anorexia, quack medicine, murder, love and a very unusual form of bibliomania. 7 VOLUME 29 2 010 HOUSING IN VENICE LISTING OF APARTMENTS: Venice Sublet July 12-August 5, 2010.

A foundation of this research is a close examination of artists who traveled and worked at foreign courts, the Ottoman and Muscovite courts being primary, in association with diplomatic missions. This group includes the painter Gentile Bellini and the architect Alevisio Lamberti da Montagnano (better known as Alevyz Novy from Russia). Their work made an impact othe developing artistic tradition, particularly the 2WWRPDQSRUWUDLWXUHLQ,VWDQEXODQG0XVFRYLWH architectural style in Moscow and its provinces, and can be viewed as key examples of the transmission of Venetian artistic tradition in foreign lands. This dissertation also further investigates the impact of Gentile Bellini’s work and workshop practices on the development of representations of Muslim people in Venetian art upon his return to Venice from Constantinople. This dissertation analyzes and explores to what extent experience of travel and work at foreign courts affected the artists’ style and informed representation of foreigners and foreign lands in the native artistic tradition. 11 VOLUME 29 2 010 D I S S E R TAT I O N S I N V E N E T I A N S T U D I E S Il collezionismo poetico: Cardinal Pietro Bembo and the Formation of Collecting Practices in Venice and Rome in the Early Sixteenth-Century Susan Nalezyty, Temple University Cardinal Pietro Bembo (1470-1547) owned a substantial art collection and library. This dissertation seeks to explore Bembo as an agent of cultural exchange through an examination of the objects he sought, owned, lent and gifted. Approaching this poet and linguist as a collector provides access to his intellectual activities and considers the role visual art played in his thinking. A highly visible proponent of imitation and the vernacular, he once described antique coins as “images of ancient memory”. These artifacts embodied meaning, an unmediated dialog with those worthy of emulation. He installed his collection in a house in the university town of Padua, a center for cultural consumption singular for its scholarly ambient. This casa aperta became a meeting place, an academic court of sorts, and a valuable resource for scholars, with special exhibitions even being held for prominent visitors. Bembo’s letters, which survive in abundance, are crucial to a portrayal of his musaeum because no inventory survives. This approach has the advantage of contextualizing their acquisition and display, and thus reveals that the collection was not static, and nor was he. Bembo lent works and gifted others. He installed objects at the family villa outside Padua, and in the house in town, and he sent for DUWLIDFWVZKHQKHOLYHGDZD\,QHDFKFDVHKH sought to create an appropriate space for them, whether it was a bed canopy for his rooms in the Vatican, a statue of Priapus for his garden at the villa, or frescoes by Giovanni da Udine in the townhouse. These previously unknown items no longer survive, but their recovery places them and Bembo against a background as varied and as rich as his career, thus illustrating that his wide-ranging ambitions were intimately intertwined. Whereas the works of SUHYLRXVVFKRODUVKDYHLGHQWLÀHGFRPSRQHQWV of Bembo’s holdings, each starting and ending with Michiel’s well-known passage, none have approached the collection as evidence for an intersection of familial legacy and cultural UHSRVLWRU\DV,SURSRVHWRGR Here the art object is a means by which the social and political motivations for ownership are considered via the material setting for display. The Renaissance interior is a unifying IUDPHZRUNIRUVWXG\LQJQRWRQO\ÀQHDUWVEXW also for considering objects typically overlooked: those that no longer survive or those that are categorized as decorative arts, which often fall out of the scope of traditional art historical inquiry. The methodology and debates of studying collections have been eloquently outlined in the work of Paula Findlen and Richard Goldthwaite, who explore the complex relationship between the urge to own material remains and the desire to possess the immaterial knowledge they contain. Challenging many assumptions about decorative strategies in the Renaissance, this study combines primary research with a new approach to the complex heritage of humanism. This dissertation offers a catalog of Bembo’s objects and explores the theoretical implications of those works, which have foundations in the classical, but also look forward to the goals and motivations of the next century’s collectors. A study of the mobility of Bembo’s material goods highlights the cyclical nature of ownership. These objects were re-purposed, and thus do not illustrate a single moment in the historical record, but rather are sites for the re-working of ideas. The careful selection, acquisition and display of objects from the past connects cultural consumption to history writing, a task Bembo took up for the Republic late in life. Thus a consideration of Bembo’s collecting of material culture accesses his thinking. He is thus revealed as a mediator of the distinctive changes we connect to Renaissance culture. A realist, in Venice, would become a romantic by mere faithfulness to what he saw before him.

Their cities - Bergamo, Brescia and Udine, respectively - were commercial centres along borders that played a crucial role in the Republic’s defence against outside forces including the Milanese, Austrian, Hungarian and Turkish threats. The strong, independent character of these outer-lying regions is clear in their political relationship with Venice, which offered these families concessions in exchange for their service to the Republic. Their power lay in the shifting loyalties of their volatile regions. Playing a central role in the defence of Venice and its mainland holdings, these nobles supplied the necessary infantry captains and condottieri. They were an exclusive, clannish group with blood ties, military service and a tendency to intermarry. The captains passed their regiments onto their families retaining a monopoly of increasingly professional military men. Members of this elite group, the Colleoni, Martinengo and Savorgnan, maintained strong connections with Venice and moved among DIÁXHQWVHWVHVWDEOLVKLQJUHODWLRQVKLSVZLWKNH\ ÀJXUHVRIWKHSHULRGLQFOXGLQJ3LHWUR%HPER Francesco Maria della Rovere, and Marino Sanuto, among others, even becoming members of the Venetian patriciate themselves.

This article seeks to explain the archival, artistic, and culinary treasures awaiting late medieval and early modern scholars at the far end of the terraferma, in the city of Bergamo. Routinely overlooked by scholars and tourists alike, Bergamo nevertheless boasts a superb library, several important archives, a beautifully-preserved historical center, and an array of excellent restaurants that go far beyond polenta taragna. The city is located about 210 kilometers (130 miles) west of Venice, at the foot of the Orobian Alps.

Regular bus service, as well as a funicular railway, connect the two halves of the city. The Serenissima, which ruled Bergamo from 1428-1797, recognized the value of Bergamo as a military outpost against the Milanese and as a way station on important trade routes to Switzerland.

The latter in particular has been the source of numerous dissertations and books in medieval and early modern history, art history, music history, and archival studies. The collections about the poet Torquato Tasso, and the composers Gaetano Donizetti and Simone Mayr, are equally important for literary scholars and musicologists respectively. The library staff is friendly, professional, and well-trained; free wireless access is available to anyone working in the library; and the library catalogues and indexes are up-to-date. Across the Piazza Vecchia is the Archivio Storico Diocesano (formerly the Archivio della Curia), which houses 700 linear meters of episcopal and Church documents in the bishop’s palace. The oldest parchments date to the thirteenth century, but the strength of the collection is in the series of pastoral visitations, synodal records, cathedral chapter documents, and so forth from the early sixteenth century onward. The diocesan archive contains several smaller archives within it (e.g., Archivio Mensa Vescovile, Archivio Tribunale Ecclesiastico, Archivio Capitolare). This diocesan archive has been slow to digitize its indices and collections but a new website and additional support from WKH&RXQFLORI,WDOLDQ%LVKRSVVXJgests that soon many parts of the collection will be available virtually. Massimo Firpo’s two recent studies of Bergamo’s heretical bishop Vittore Soranzo (1547-1558) demonstrate how much can still be gleaned from these archives, as do half a dozen other publications in 2008-09 noted on the archive’s website.

The Museo Donizettiano commemorates the life DQGZRUNVRIWKHSUROLÀFFRPSRVHU Gaetano Donizetti (1797-1848) and includes a small library and archive with autograph musical scores, libretti, and correspondence. There is also an Archeological Museum and a Museum of Natural History, both in Piazza della Cittadella, the traditional military stronghold of the city and still today the home of the carabinieri. No scholar can live on books alone; fortunately Bergamo’s upper city offers a number of culinary options, all within a three-minute walk of the Piazza Vecchia. For a mid-morning cappuccino, the elegant Pasticceria Cavour or the equally lovely and KLVWRULF&DIIq7DVVRDUHÀQHFKRLFHV Three expensive restaurants are located in the Piazza Vecchia, but for a scholar LQDKXUU\WKHEHVWEHWLV,O)RUQDLRMXVW twenty steps from the civic library. A massive plate-glass window allows you to consider the many choices of pizza, calzone, focaccia farcita, or plain bread, which can be consumed on premises or (better yet) as a picnic in the Piazza Vecchia.

For a more formal meal, Trattoria Tre Torri offers a superb veal shin or ossobuco in an intimate surrounding of rounded brick walls, while the Trattoria Ornella is famous for its casoncelli (a Bergamasque version of ravioli stuffed with pork, breadcrumbs, and parmesan, twisted in a spiral and served with butter and sage); both trattorias are located less than one hundred meters from the Piazza Vecchia on the way to the funicular station. At least ten more restaurants are located on the main (read: only) street of the Città Alta, so one will never lack for easy access to a meal. The lower city includes the Archivio di Stato, which for many years was located in the monastery of S. Spirito but as of January 2010 will be in a new building in via Fratelli Bronzetti. Due to the fact that this state archive was opened only in 1959, much of the material that one PLJKWH[SHFWWRÀQGKDVLQVWHDGEHHQ deposited in Milan’s Archivio di Stato or in Bergamo’s Biblioteca Civica. Nevertheless, Bergamo’s state archive still contains a massive collection of 14,000 notarial cartularies dating from 1245 to 1902, as well as a few private family archives and many administrative documents from the modern SHULRG,QWKHKHDUWRIWKHGRZQWRZQ FRPPHUFLDOGLVWULFWRQHÀQGVWKH Ateneo di Scienze, Lettere e Arti of %HUJDPR,WFRQWDLQVDUDWKHUPRGHVW library but serves as a meeting point for professors and intellectuals to pres- ent their research in monthly lectures, annual symposia, and edited volumes. ,KDYHDOVRZRUNHGLQWZRSDULVK archives in the lower city, those of S.

While it is certainly possible to do a day trip to Bergamo from Venice, several options are available for those staying overnight. There are plenty of XSVFDOHKRWHOVLQWKHORZHUFLW\EXW, focus on places in the historic center, which is far more charming. The best value are the bed-and-breakfasts in the Città Alta, which can include selfcatering apartments or private rooms in an independent house. Appartamenti Eulalia e Nastasia features three beautiful apartments in Via Colleoni that can sleep 2-6 persons; the owner will transport you to and from the train station or assist with a parking permit. The B&B Entro le Mura offers two private rooms with access to a garden, while the B&B Al Vicolo has several rooms next to the church of S. Andrea and the historic via Porta Dipinta. Casa Gandini offers a two-room apartment with kitchen and splendid view from the terrace for a two-night minimum stay. Two traditional hotels have long served the upper city: the Albergo Sole faces onto Piazza Vecchia and is in the center of the action, with a downstairs restaurant. The Agnello D’Oro, also in the heart of the upper city, features a traditional restaurant with copper pots hanging from the ceiling, but the twenty bedrooms can be tiny.

Exhibition Catalogue edited by Frederick ,OFKPDQ%RVWRQ0)$3XEOLFDWLRQV/XQG +XPSKULHVSDJHV,6%1 84822-022-5, £40 (Hardcover). “..rivalry sometimes serves as a spur, making the artist more attentive so as not to fall behind his competitor.” &DUOR5LGROÀZULWLQJLQWKXVVXPPDULVHV an element of artistic life particularly relevant to 16th century Venice. The careers of Titian, Tintoretto and Veronese overlapped for almost forty years and inevitably these artists, together with many others, competed for commissions and prizes in their home city, one of the richest in Europe at that time, thereby creating an innovative and fertile artistic milieu. The recent exhibition in Boston and Paris, organised by the 0XVHXPRI)LQH$UWV%RVWRQDQGWKH0XVpH du Louvre, Paris, aimed to bring to the fore this aspect of 16th century Venetian life. Within this concept of rivalry between ‘the big three’ of 16th century Venetian painting, the catalogue essays discuss the social, political, and HFRQRPLFFRQWH[WZLWKLQZKLFKLWÁRXULVKHG and elucidate developments in the technical DQGDHVWKHWLFLQQRYDWLRQVWKDWGHÀQH¶9HQHWLDQ style’ – characterized by loose technique, rich colouring and often sensual subject manner. )UHGHULFN,OFKPDQWKHH[KLELWLRQFXUDtor, considers the art of Titian, Tintoretto and Veronese to be ‘one of response, critique and emulation’.

A strong antipathy seems to have developed between the two artists with attempts to outdo each other. Veronese, moving from Verona to Venice permanently in the 1550s, may have been put forward by Titian or possibly used by him to EORFN7LQWRUHWWR·VSURJUHVV,QWKHFRPSHWLWLRQ for the decoration of the ceiling of the Libreria Marciana, Tintoretto was excluded and his rival 9HURQHVHZRQDJROGFKDLQ5LGROÀLQIRUPV us that Titian and Jacopo Sansovino were the judges. Tintoretto, although not alone in this, was frequently known to offer to work free or at a cut price to promote his work. A famous example of his aggressive tactics is his behaviour at the competition to paint the ceiling of the Sala dell’Albergo in the Scuola Grande di San Rocco. Tintoretto had managed to get access to the building and had already painted a picture on the ceiling instead of submitting the required drawing. Venice’s position as a republic not under the rule of a single family or court enabled a broad UDQJHRIFRPPLVVLRQVWRÁRZIURPSULYDWH HFFOHVLDVWLFDODQGFLYLFVRXUFHV2IÀFLDOFRPmissions were spread over a range of candidates to aid continuing harmony and stability LQWKHUHSXEOLF,QWKLVPLOLHX7LWLDQZDVNQRZQ 20 N E WS ON THE RIALTO RESEARC HIN G VENICE AND THE VENETO to be suave and diplomatic, Tintoretto more aggressive and thrusting, whilst Veronese, who appears to have had a more diplomatic disposition, apparently moved comfortably amongst the nobility. 7KHH[KLELWLRQLWVHOIFRPSULVHGVRPHÀIW\ VL[SDLQWLQJVDUUDQJHGWKHPDWLFDOO\7KHÀUVW theme, the transformation of Venetian painting around 1500, highlights the main two changes as being the increasing use of canvas and oil as opposed to wooden panels and egg tempera. This facilitated softer contours, complex paint layers, the opportunity for expressive brushwork, new approaches to the depiction of light and atmosphere and the development of subjects such as landscape, portraits and the erotic QXGH,QGLYLGXDOVEHJLQLQFUHDVLQJO\WRDFTXLUH works for their beauty alone. Titian, initially trained in Giovanni Bellini’s workshop, is seen DVWKHNH\ÀJXUHLQWDNLQJWKHVHGHYHORSPHQWV to new heights. Titian’s dominance of Venetian art went unchallenged after Bellini’s death in 1516 and it wasn’t until 1548 that the thirty year old Jacopo Tintoretto came to the fore ZLWKKLV¶0LUDFOHRIWKH6ODYH·,QWKHV with Titian occupied with work for clients outside of Venice, the situation was ripe for a new challenger to Tintoretto in Veronese. With the sense of decorum and repose in his works he became a foil to Tintoretto’s more unsettled and restless nature. The comparison of sacred works shows all three artists occupied with altar-piece composition with Veronese developing a particular reputation for painting Biblical feast scenes for refectories in monastries. The challenge to demonstrate virtuoso effects such as depicting DUPRXUDQGRWKHUUHÁHFWLYHVXUIDFHVSURYLGHG the artists with the opportunity to show their SURZHVV7KHGHSLFWLRQRIVRIWÁHVKXVLQJWKH possibilities of oil paints became another opportunity to demonstrate skill and talent. The catalogue deals in depth with the styles of portraiture of the three artists charting the development from a frequently stiff portrayal RIKHDGDQGVKRXOGHUVRIWHQLQSURÀOHFRPmon in 15th century Venice, to the more direct gaze of the sitter leading to a sense of connection with the viewer and to beautifully painted still-life details. The reputation of Titian in this area spread across Europe and his successful approach made him a key person to emulate. Both Tintoretto and Veronese followed in his style. That Tintoretto should have taken such a step is indicative of his acknowledgement that in this area Titian was the one to follow rather than compete with if fame and fortune were to be gained. Veronese is known to have painted Titian’s portrait (now lost) suggesting a close relationship between the two. The Appendices provide much interesting information. A history of the collecting of Venetian painting in Boston is followed by a chronology placing the lives of the three artists in the context of historical events and with reference to each other. The select bibliography gives the books most referenced here and those which are considered to be most important for a general knowledge of Venetian renaissance painting. All the catalogue entries are illustrated full page size and in colour and the text is accompanied by over a hundred other illustrations also in colour. For an in-depth approach to the often complex Venetian art world of the time this is an excellent volume dealing with the issues in a clear but never simplistic way.
