Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Come ex-dirigente dell’Istituto Comprensivo di Lodi Vecchio e come cittadina, l’autrice ha voluto godere della stesura di un nuova ricerca, che scava nella nostra storia e ne fa un parallelo con l’attualità: l’obiettivo è quello di valorizzare la cultura locale e il nostro passato, fornendo storici spunti interessanti al lettore. Lei ha ricostruito, altresì, i passaggi che portarono l’allora Presidente della Repubblica Italiana Carlo Azeglio Ciampi a conferire il titolo di città a Lodi Vecchio, senza dimenticare la biografia di San Giovanni da Lodi Antica, nato a Laus Pompeia e morto, dopo essere stato nominato vescovo, a Gubbio, in provincia di Perugia. E che dire dell'archeologo Antonio Frova, ora sepolto con sua moglie nel cimitero di Lodi Vecchio? Egli condusse i lavoriarcheologici dal 1955 al 1958, con tre campagne di scavi, per ritrovare l'antica Laus Pompeia.

Download or read book Biondo Flavio s Italia illustrata written by Biondo Flavio and published by Global Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1447 Alfonso of Aragon, King of Naples, engaged the humanist antiquarian Biondo Flavio to compose in Latin a catalogue of famous men of Italy. This commission became Italia Illustrata, the first historical topography. In it, Biondo superimposed upon Italy’s classical heritage and her troubled medieval history a panorama of Italy in his own time. Although Italia Illustrata and three other major Latin treatises made Biondo’s reputation as the father of modern historiography and archaeology, these works have been accessible only in early modern printed editions to specialists with entrée to rare book rooms. Catherine J. Castner has now made this important treatise available in modern text with English translation and commentary. The Latin text is the best-known early printed edition, that of Froben (Basel, 1559). A clear, flowing English translation provides modern Italian equivalents for the majority of Biondo’s Latin toponyms. The commentary summarizes scholarship on the location and history of towns and cities of Italy and the building activities of their Renaissance lords. The plates include maps of cities and regions of Italy from medieval and early modern times. Italia Illustrata is an essential resource for any serious scholar of Renaissance humanism. Historians of medieval Italy, and of art and architecture, classicists, archaeologists, and epigraphers will value this work for its treasure of evidence: for example, Biondo’s eye-witness reports on the status of the building projects of the Malatesta; the Renaissance reception of Livy, Pliny, and Virgil (and the transmission of forged or misinterpreted inscriptions); and correlations of ancient sites with fifteenth-century settlements. This book will appeal to interests ranging from the current popular appetite for travel in Italy, to the growing scholarly attention to early modern geographical and travel literature; in short, to any reader with more than superficial interest in the urban centers and landscapes of Italy.
