Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sigismondo Pandolfo Malatesta, Lord of Rimini: A Study of a XV Century Italian Despot Florence and the hills of San Miniato, or in the winter-time in the great library of the Palace, copying Greek or turning the beautiful pages of the manuscripts. And even as I seem to have walked into this garden just by chance, so it was chance too brought me to Rimini and, as it seems, decided my life for me. For I was born in the little village of San Severino, in the kingdom of Naples; and my parents were poor, but of good family. Such wisdom as was to be had in such a place, not without pains, they bought for me, Pietro, their only son. And as it happened, this foolish wisdom, dearly bought, undid all my youth; and by no fault of theirs, for they were simple people, and loved me well. It happened thus: a day's journey from our home, in a tower on a round hill between the valley and the sea, an Astrologer lived, whose name I thinki never knew; he was much sought after by the people of the city. My father, wishing to do well by me, bade him cast my horoscope, for the which he paid him three gold Ducats.

Download or read book Renaissance Mass Murder written by Stephen D. Bowd and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-11-08 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renaissance Mass Murder explores the devastating impact of war on the men and women of the Renaissance. In contrast to the picture of balance and harmony usually associated with the Renaissance, it uncovers in forensic detail a world in which sacks of Italian cities and massacres of civilians at the hands of French, German, Spanish, Swiss, and Italian troops were regular occurrences. The arguments presented are based on a wealth of evidence - histories and chronicles, poetry and paintings, sculpture and other objects - which together provide a new and startling history of sixteenth-century Italy and a social history of the Italian Wars. It outlines how massacres happened, how princes, soldiers, lawyers, and writers justified and explained such events, and how they were represented in contemporary culture. On this basis, Renaissance Mass Murder reconstructs the terrifying individual experiences of civilians in the face of war and in doing so offers a story of human tragedy which redresses the balance of the history of the Italian Wars, and of Renaissance warfare, in favour of the civilian and away from the din of battle. This volume also places mass murder in a broader historical context and challenges claims that such violence was unusual or in decline in early modern Europe. Finally, it shows that women often suffered disproportionately from this violence and that immunity for them, as for their children, was often partially developed or poorly respected.

Book Ezra Pound and the Monument of Culture

Download or read book Ezra Pound and the Monument of Culture written by Lawrence S. Rainey and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1991-12-15 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the summer of 1922, Ezra Pound viewed the church of San Francesco in Rimini, Italy, for the first time. Commonly known as the Tempio Malatestiano, the edifice captured his imagination for the rest of his life. Lawrence S. Rainey here recounts an obsession that links together the whole of Pound's poetic career and thought. Written by Pound in the months following his first visit, the four poems grouped as "The Malatesta Cantos" celebrate the church and the man who sponsored its construction, Sigismondo Malatesta. Upon receiving news of the building's devastation by Allied bombings in 1944, Pound wrote two more cantos that invoked the event as a rallying point for the revival of fascist Italy. These "forbidden" cantos were excluded from collected editions of his works until 1987. Pound even announced an abortive plan in 1958 to build a temple inspired by the church, and in 1963, at the age of eighty, he returned to Rimini to visit the Tempio Malatestiano one last, haunting time. Drawing from hundreds of unpublished materials, Rainey explores the intellectual heritage that surrounded the church, Pound's relation to it, and the interpretation of his work by modern critics. The Malatesta Cantos, which have been called "one of the decisive turning-points in modern poetics" and "the most dramatic moment in The Cantos," here engender an intricate allegory of Pound's entire career, the central impulses of literary modernism, the growth of intellectual fascism, and the failure of critical culture in the twentieth century. Included are two-color illustrations from the 1925 edition of Pound's cantos and numerous black-and-white photographs.
