Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Italian Renaissance art is closely intertwined with the development of courts and court culture in much of the Italian territory. The patronage of the ruling families of the small Italian city-states greatly favoured the flourishing of the figurative arts and architecture, but also in music, literature, and theatre. The book starts with an introduction by Marco Folin, the volume's editor, on the critical issues of court art and its historiography, followed by an important essay on the historical and geographical framework of Renaissance Italy, illustrated by 18 especially-made maps, useful to understand the complexity and fragmentation of the country in the 15th century. The role of princely patronage in the development of music and literature is then examined: from the place of the humanists at court to the link between music and propaganda, from the first theatrical representations to the rise of the printing press and the publication of the most famous Renaissance books: Castiglione's Book of the Courtier and Ariosto's Orlando Furioso. The second, longer part of the volume, is arranged geographically and covers the entire peninsula, giving attention not only to the major courts, such as Milan, Mantua, Ferrara, Urbino, papal Rome, Naples and the crypto-court of the Medicis in Florence, but devoting chapters to the minor courts spread around northern and central Italy, from the Paleologues rulers of Montferrat to the Malatesta court in Rimini, from Carpi under the Pios to the Orsinis' rule in Bracciano. The main chapters are enriched by texts focused on particular aspects of Renaissance culture and politics: the courts of the cardinals and the southern barons, the patronage of the condottieri, the specificity of Venetian state-commissions, etc. The essays are written by well-known Italian scholars - such as Franco Piperno on music, Rinaldo Rinaldi on literature, Alessandro Cecchi on Medicean Florence and Alessandro Angelini on the papal court in Rome - and are accompanied by a rich and accurate iconography, showing not only famous masterpieces but also lesser known works of art and architecture. The book is completed by an annotated bibliography for the various chapters and by an index of names and places. Edited by Marco Folin, University of Genoa.

hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

Couverture souple. Condition: Comme neuf. Edition originale. Paris, 2018. 1 Volume/1. -- Comme Neuf -- Broché collé. Couverture illustrée Format in-8°( 24 x 16 cm )( 664 gr ).-------- 417 pages. Nombreuses figures et cartes , Certaines à pleine page. ******************* Présentation éditeur : "" L espace est à la fois une réalité concrète, matérielle et mesurable, et une construction sociale et symbolique, ces deux aspects interagissant en permanence. L Occident latin est certes en ce domaine l héritier de Rome, mais les conceptions et les pratiques de l espace ont été bouleversées par la chute de l Empire et le développement de nouvelles structures politiques où les pouvoirs s exercent sur les hommes plus que sur les territoires, une notion qui semble s être temporairement effacée. Dans la perspective du programme SAS qui est celle d une sémiologie de la naissance de l état moderne, ce sont moins les signes dans l espace que les signes de l espace qui sont étudiés ici. On sait que l espace est une production sociale et notre conception de l espace comme surface homogène et mesurable n est pas celle de la période médiévale et moderne, où l on oscille sans cesse entre un espace polarisé autour des lieux de pouvoir et/ou des lieux sacrés et l espace conçu comme territoire. Les communications sont regroupées en quatre thématiques : marqueurs symboliques de l espace (palais communaux, espaces de pouvoirs, mausolées dynastiques), pouvoirs et symbolique de l espace (identité civique des communes, contrôle de l espace impérial, marquage de l espace économique, retour du territoire), représentation symbolique de l espace (cartes marines, portulans, vues figurées, usages de la géographie) et perception de la symbolique de l espace (frontières, écrits administratifs, représentations de la cité) "" ******************* ref XIIIsc & ref 604sd.…
