Geografie napoleoniche
Full text link"L’intervento di Marcello Tanca, Geografie napoleoniche, affronta il peso specifico assunto dalla geografia nella dominazione napoleonica. Tale disciplina ha, infatti, raggiunto un posto di primo piano intrecciandosi con la politica, con l’esercizio del potere connesso con l’acquisizione di nuove competenze e informazioni anche di carattere geografico e questioni di Stato a vari livelli. Sotto Napoleone, infatti, la figura del geografo diventa parte di un corpo militare poiché era indispensabile conoscere il territorio su cui si andava a combattere. E ancora: l’impe-ro di Napoleone può essere interpretato, anche in chiave geografica, come un momento di occidentalizzazione del mondo. Il che riconduce alle considerazioni svolte nella prima parte di questa introduzione e a quelle che verranno nella parte conclusiva" (Rafaella Pilo
The Spanish Monarchy and the French hegemony at the age of the dynastic change in Madrid (1690-1700). A case study: the Kingdom of Valenza
No full textPostface. Traiettorie oblique nella Monarchia asburgica
No full texthe purpose of this study is the identification and reconstruction of the common thread linking the two Aragonese kingdoms of Sardinia and Valencia, and in particular the two cities of Cagliari and Valencia, both of which were the seats of viceroys and Mediterranean ports – through the governance of some viceroys ruling in both kingdoms during the Baroque period. Clearly the research tends to favour those individuals that governed both kingdoms and aims to analyse the governance of individuals related to each other, mostly through kinship or factions, but undoubtedly also enjoying autonomy of action. Specifically, it is of major interest to identify the specific characteristics of each kingdom (and, above all, of each urban reality) also because these specific characteristics are mostly attributable to the use of local “labour” (Sardinian or Valencian) at the disposal of the viceroys and their right-hand men, both to perform pictorial works and to create architectural monuments or literary or legal works
Art in times of crisis. The Camarassa plot and the Mercedarian Cycle in Cagliari (1670-72)
No full textDuring the last phase of the Iberian rule in Sardinia, during that uncertain period of transition towards a new political arena, the city of Cagliari, traditionally linked with Eastern Spain from a commercial and cultural viewpoint, underwent a prolific period of cultural and artistic innovation. Some foreign artists like the Roman painter Domenico Conti, played a decisive role when they met with the tradition of insular art and image. During the political crisis between the Hispanic monarchy and some members of the Sardinian aristocracy, following the Viceroy Camarassa’s murder, he painted sixteen large paintings on canvas for the Mercedarian Order inside the Bonaria Sanctuary in Cagliari (167072). This essay offers an ideological and spiritual viewpoint of the set of the paintings
Relaciones de sucesos italianas y traducciones sobre el viaje triunfal de Margarita de Austria (1598-1599)
No full textDue to its widespread importance in Europe, the Valencian wedding in 1599 between
Margaret of Austria and Philip III holds a privileged place in a history --still to be embarked on-- of
the translation and editing of Informative and Literary texts (avisos y relaciones de sucesos) in the
Italo-Iberian area, during a period of vital importance for the consolidation of a pre-modern public
opinion and of a wider reading audience
