Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The volume addresses the issue of political celebration in early modern Venice. Dealing with processional orders and iconographic programs, historiographical narratives and urbanistic canons, stylistic features and diplomatic accounts, the interdisciplinary contributions gathered in these pages aim to question the performative effectiveness and the social consistency of the so called 'myth' of Venice: a system of symbols, beliefs and meanings offering a self-portrait of the ruling elite, the Venetian patriciate. In order to do so, the volume calls for a spatial turn in Venetian studies, blurring the boundaries between institutionalized and unofficial ceremonial spaces and considering their ongoing interaction in representing the rule of the Serenissima. The twelve chapters move from Palazzo Ducale to the Venetian streets and from the city of Venice to its dominions, thus widening considerably the range of social and political actors and audiences involved in the analysis. Such multifocal perspective allows us to challenge the very idea of a single 'myth' of Venice. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Brossura. Condition: new. Roma, 2024; br., pp. 416, cm 15x22.(Studi Storici Carocci). Per tutta l'età moderna Venezia rimase una città-Stato dominante su un mosaico di communitates suddite dotate di autonoma fisionomia politica, giuridica e istituzionale. Ad accomunare le diverse realtà sottomesse e i loro abitanti era l'esclusione dal corpo di governo della Serenissima Repubblica: il patriziato veneziano assiso nelle magistrature di Palazzo Ducale. Attraverso un attento studio di fonti archivistiche e un costante confronto con la trattatistica politica dell'epoca, il volume indaga le strategie adottate da tali comunità e dalle loro diplomazie al fine di ovviare al diaframma imposto da una costituzione materiale che, definendole suddite e trattandole da tali, le vedeva formalmente escluse da aree, istituzioni e processi decisionali riservati al patriziato veneziano.
