Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the idea that Civility, in one of its meanings, is among the most valuable social virtues: the skill to discuss topics that really matter to you, with someone who disagrees and yet somehow still get along. In another of its meanings, when Civility describes the limits of behaviour that is acceptable, the idea can reflect society at its worst: when only those deemed 'civil enough' are allowed their rights, their equality and even their humanity. Between these extremes, Civility is a slippery idea that has fascinated philosophers especially since the Reformation, when competing ideas on how to gain salvation seemed to make it impossible to disagree and remain civil.With Teresa Bejan Professor of Political Theory at Oriel College, University of OxfordPhil Withington Professor of History at the University of SheffieldAnd John Gallagher Associate Professor of Early Modern History at the University of LeedsProducer: Simon TillotsonReading list: Teresa M.

Uno sguardo sull'umanità tra miti, attualità ed emozioni attraverso la Collezione Bachelot.La mostra, promossa dall'Associazione culturale Imago Mundi e curata da Tiziana Bonomo, espone circa 90 ritratti originali selezionati all'interno di una delle più importanti collezioni fotografiche private in Francia e in Europa permeata da un profondo spirito umanista.  Diversi autori noti come Lewis Hine, Arnold Newman, Irwing Penn, Dorothea Lange, Saul Leiter, Nan Goldin, Ann Ray, Mohamed Bourouissa  e Gilles Caron,  compongono una costellazione di sguardi che attraversa il Novecento e la contemporaneità.La mostra in naturale armonia con il Museo Nazionale del Risorgimento Italiano, galleria dei protagonisti di un'epoca della Storia d'Italia, offre in un video un saggio del patrimonio dei 17.000 documenti fotografici che il museo custodisce.

Box of Oddities Live National Tour September 10 - October 31, Halloween Night. Learn More Here! In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro raise a glass to history's most unsettling happy hour. First, a post-mortem fashion icon: the corpse of Countess Virginia Oldoini, a.k.a. the Countess of Castiglione—19th-century Italian aristocrat, secret agent, fashion influencer, and full-time narcissist. She posed for over 400 photos, staged her own haunting re-creations of operas, and spent her final years obsessively preparing to be seen dead just right. Spoiler: her afterlife aesthetic was more “ghost of Versailles” than “eternal slay.” Then, we stumble drunkenly across the globe to explore humanity's weirdest regional cocktails. From "Fat Ass In A Glass" to "The Burnt Trailer", these aren't your hipster speakeasy cocktails. They're historic. They're horrifying. They'll make you question your liver's will to live.

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/8213SAN LUIGI GONZAGA: IL MONDO RIDEVA DELLA SUA PUREZZA... ORA LUI VEDE DIO IN PARADISO di Roberto de Mattei Il primo gesuita insignito del titolo di santo non fu sant'Ignazio di Loyola, ma un suo giovane discepolo, san Luigi Gonzaga, nato il 9 marzo 1568, e morto a ventitrè anni il 21 giugno 1591, il giorno in cui la liturgia della Chiesa lo ricorda. Luigi nacque nel castello di famiglia a Castiglione delle Stiviere, sulle colline mantovane. Era il primogenito di otto figli del marchese Ferrante Gonzaga e di donna Marta Tana di Santena. Il padre era un ufficiale dell'esercito del Re di Spagna Filippo II, la madre dama di corte della regina Isabella di Spagna. Fu alla corte di Madrid che i due genitori si conobbero, prima di tornare in Italia, dove il padre fu nominato governatore del Monferrato.Luigi era destinato alla carriera militare e passò i primi anni della sua vita tra le truppe che il padre comandava. La caccia, l'equitazione, la scherma, furono le prime occupazioni del ragazzo, che però fin dai sette anni aveva manifestato un'attrazione per la vita religiosa. Il marchese Gonzaga, per completare l'educazione del figlio, nel 1577 lo inviò, assieme al fratello secondogenito Rodolfo, a coltivare le buone maniere e a studiare, alla raffinata corte dei Medici, a Firenze. Gli studi e il servizio di corte non facevano però trascurare al giovane le pratiche religiose. Anzi fu a Firenze, nella Basilica della Santissima Annunziata, che Luigi fece voto di perpetua verginità, iniziando ad esercitare in grado eroico la virtù della purezza, tra l'irrisione dei compagni, che lo definivano uno squilibrato. Nel 1580 ricevette la Prima Comunione da san Carlo Borromeo, in visita nella diocesi di Brescia, della quale Castiglione faceva parte a quel tempo. Nel 1581, con il fratello Rodolfo, si recò a Madrid per due anni, come paggio d'onore del principe Diego. A Madrid Luigi studiò lettere, scienze e filosofia, ma lesse anche testi spirituali, e maturò la sua decisione di farsi gesuita. Nonostante l'opposizione del padre, fece gli Esercizi di sant'Ignazio e all'età di 17 anni, il 4 novembre 1585, dopo aver rinunziato ai suoi diritti di primogenito, entrò nel noviziato della Compagnia di Gesù a Roma. Due anni dopo fece la professione, compì gli studi di teologia, e ricevette gli Ordini Minori. Tra i suoi compagni di collegio era il giovane Abramo Giorgi, che sarebbe morto quattro anni dopo di lui, non dentro un letto però, ma decapitato dai musulmani sulla piazza di Massaua. LA PESTE A ROMATra il 1590 e il 1591 la peste uccise a Roma migliaia di persone, inclusi i papi Sisto V e Urbano VII. Luigi Gonzaga, insieme a Camillo de Lellis e ad altri apostoli, si prodigò intensamente ad assistere i più bisognosi. Un giorno, il 3 marzo 1591, trovato in strada un appestato, se lo caricò in spalla e lo portò all'ospedale della Consolazione. La sua salute era sempre stata cagionevole. La sera stessa fu colto da un febbrone e morì, all'età di soli 23 anni, nell'infermeria del Collegio Romano. Nel concistoro del 26 settembre 1605 Paolo V gli conferì il titolo di beato. Fu canonizzato il 31 dicembre 1726, insieme a un altro giovane gesuita, san Stanislao Kostka, da Benedetto XIII il quale, tre anni più tardi, lo proclamò patrono della gioventù cattolica. Il suo corpo venne tumulato nella chiesa di sant'Ignazio a Roma, nello splendido altare barocco di Andrea Pozzo e Pierre Legros mentre il suo cranio è conservato nella basilica a lui intitolata a Castiglione delle Stiviere. San Luigi Gonzaga è anche autore di un aureo Trattato o Meditazione degli angeli, particolarmente degli angeli custodi, pubblicato nel 1589, su richiesta di Vincenzo Bruno, rettore del Collegio romano.Per diventare santi, occorre l'aiuto della Madonna e degli Angeli, ma sono necessarie anche quelle mediazioni umane che la Divina Provvidenza ci assicura. San Luigi Gonzaga ebbe la grazia di avere come direttore spirituale san Roberto Bellarmino che, grazie al suo discernimento delle anime, seppe guidarlo nella vita interiore, fino a farne un capolavoro di santità. San Roberto fu un celebre teologo e controversista, ma basterebbe l'aiuto spirituale che diede all'anima di Luigi per fargli meritare le maggiori ricompense celesti. Per la vita spirituale di san Luigi fu importante anche la madre, una donna di eminenti virtù che vide morire cinque dei suoi otto figli. Fu miracolata in vita da Luigi, che la guarì da una grave malattia ed ebbe la gioia di assistere al suo processo di beatificazione. LA MORTE DI SAN LUIGILe consolazioni che Maria Gonzaga ricevette da Luigi furono più grandi dei dolori che ebbe dal secondo figlio Rodolfo, che nel 1592, fece assassinare per motivi ereditari suo zio Alfonso Gonzaga, e a sua volta venne assassinato nel 1593 con un colpo di archibugio.Il 10 giugno 1591, pochi giorni prima di morire san Luigi scrisse alla madre una commovente lettera in cui le rivolgeva queste parole: "Ti confiderò, o illustrissima signora, che meditando le bontà divine, mare senza fondo e senza confini, la mia mente si smarrisce. Non riesco a capacitarmi come il Signore guardi alla mia piccola e breve fatica e mi premi con il riposo eterno e dal cielo mi inviti a quella felicità che io fino ad ora ho cercato con negligenza e offra a me, che assai poche lacrime ho sparso per esso, quel tesoro che è il coronamento di grandi fatiche e pianto. La separazione non sarà lunga. Ci rivedremo in cielo e insieme uniti all'autore della nostra salvezza, godremo gioie immortali, lodandolo con tutta la capacità dell'anima e cantando senza fine le sue grazie. Egli ci toglie quello che prima ci aveva dato solo per riporlo in un luogo più sicuro ed inviolabile e per ornarci di quei beni che noi stessi sceglieremo. Ho detto queste cose solo per obbedire al mio ardente desiderio che tu, o illustrissima signora e tutta la famiglia, consideriate la mia partenza come un evento gioioso. E tu continua ad assistermi con la tua materna benedizione, mentre sono in mare verso il porto di tutte le mie speranze. Ho preferito scriverti perché niente mi è rimasto con cui manifestarti in modo più chiaro l'amore ed il rispetto che, come figlio, devo alla mia madre".

Full Text of ReadingsMemorial of Saint Aloysius Gonzaga, Religious Lectionary: 370The Saint of the day is Saint Aloysius GonzagaSaint Aloysius Gonzaga's Story The Lord can make saints anywhere, even amid the brutality and license of Renaissance life. Florence was the “mother of piety” for Aloysius Gonzaga despite his exposure to a “society of fraud, dagger, poison, and lust.” As a son of a princely family, he grew up in royal courts and army camps. His father wanted Aloysius to be a military hero. At age 7 Aloysius experienced a profound spiritual quickening. His prayers included the Office of Mary, the psalms, and other devotions. At age 9 he came from his hometown of Castiglione to Florence to be educated; by age 11 he was teaching catechism to poor children, fasting three days a week, and practicing great austerities. When he was 13 years old, he traveled with his parents and the Empress of Austria to Spain, and acted as a page in the court of Philip II. The more Aloysius saw of court life, the more disillusioned he became, seeking relief in learning about the lives of saints. A book about the experience of Jesuit missionaries in India suggested to him the idea of entering the Society of Jesus, and in Spain his decision became final. Now began a four-year contest with his father. Eminent churchmen and laypeople were pressed into service to persuade Aloysius to remain in his “normal” vocation. Finally he prevailed, was allowed to renounce his right to succession, and was received into the Jesuit novitiate. Like other seminarians, Aloysius was faced with a new kind of penance—that of accepting different ideas about the exact nature of penance. He was obliged to eat more, and to take recreation with the other students. He was forbidden to pray except at stated times. He spent four years in the study of philosophy and had Saint Robert Bellarmine as his spiritual adviser. In 1591, a plague struck Rome. The Jesuits opened a hospital of their own. The superior general himself and many other Jesuits rendered personal service. Because he nursed patients, washing them and making their beds, Aloysius caught the disease. A fever persisted after his recovery and he was so weak he could scarcely rise from bed. Yet he maintained his great discipline of prayer, knowing that he would die three months later within the octave of Corpus Christi, at the age of 23. Reflection As a saint who fasted, scourged himself, sought solitude and prayer, and did not look on the faces of women, Aloysius seems an unlikely patron of youth in a society where asceticism is confined to training camps of football teams and boxers, and sexual permissiveness has little left to permit. Can an overweight and air-conditioned society deprive itself of anything? It will when it discovers a reason, as Aloysius did. The motivation for letting God purify us is the experience of God loving us in prayer.

The Beloved Bride, Talk 1 CFG 2025, James & Lou di Castiglione by Chanctonbury Church

La tua crush è una modella? Prima di tutto, ma a chi vuoi darla a bere? Poi, buona fortuna! Quest'età dell'oro dell'apparenza può trasformare le più innocue pulzelle in malesseri senz'anima. Se questo è il suo caso, inizia a picconare il suo ego ipertrofico raccontandole l'ascesa (e la caduta) della celebre influencer fotomodella che fece letteralmente l'Unità d'Italia: Virginia Oldoini, Contessa di Castiglione.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Turns out that selfies aren't really a new phenomenon, and as cameras emerged as a new technology in the 19th century, there was a nearly perfect subject who made the form her own. Meet Virginia Oldoini, Countess of Castiglione, spy, diplomat, model, courtesan, art director, and one-time mistress of Emperor Napoleon III. It's quite a resume and a heck of a story - a minor noble whose beauty was legendary but whose arrogance and self-importance certainly rubbed the Parisian upper crust the wrong way.

Para muchos emprendedores y profesionales, fijar un precio adecuado por su servicio es un desafío que va más allá de calcular costos; se trata de un proceso de autovaloración y estrategia. Aumentar el precio no solo implica mayores ingresos, sino también elevar la percepción de valor y atraer clientes más comprometidos y dispuestos a invertir. José Castiglione, Mentor High Ticket, asegura que el camino hacia tarifas más altas comienza al comprender que el precio de un servicio es subjetivo y depende tanto de la transformación que ofrezcamos como del cliente al que nos dirigimos. Uno de los principales errores es pensar que se puede trabajar para cualquiera, cuando en realidad, el primer paso para aumentar el precio de un servicio está en elegir a un nicho específico y entender su necesidad de transformación. A su vez, nuestro invitado aclara que los clientes no están comprando el tiempo dedicado, sino el resultado final: "Los profesionales están muy acostumbrados a vender horas y las horas no valen nada. Nadie compra horas, sino que la gente compra un resultado", subraya nuestro especialista. Para José, el objetivo es crear una oferta tan valiosa que sea “ridículamente buena”, es decir, algo a lo que el cliente no pueda decir que no. Este enfoque ayuda no solo a establecer un precio más alto, sino a filtrar a los clientes realmente comprometidos, aquellos que no cuestionan cada aspecto del proceso, sino que confían en el valor del servicio. "Cuando cobramos barato, atraemos clientes que quieren cuestionar y negociar todo. Cuando cobramos bien, llegan personas comprometidas y dispuestas a escuchar lo que tenemos para decir. Eso cambia drásticamente nuestra experiencia de trabajo", señala José. La estrategia también implica ayudar a los clientes a ver el costo de no tomar la decisión de invertir en el servicio. Según José, “tomar una decisión puede generar un beneficio, pero no tomar esa decisión también tiene un costo, y eso es lo que los clientes no ven. Nosotros como líderes de negocios tenemos que calcular ese costo para el cliente y mostrárselo”. Finalmente, el impacto de aumentar el precio de un servicio va mucho más allá de la ganancia económica. Al atraer clientes con alto compromiso, los resultados mejoran, se generan casos de éxito y se abre la puerta a oportunidades aún mayores. El proceso de valorizarse como profesional no solo transforma la relación con el cliente, sino que también eleva la calidad de los resultados, lo que contribuye a fortalecer la reputación y el posicionamiento en el mercado.

In today's episode, we are exploring how Shakespeare was influenced by The Book of the Courtier by Baldassare Castiglione as he was writing Much Ado About Nothing. We'll discuss how close reading of both Shakespeare's play and Castiglione's Renaissance etiquette book uncovers layers of intertextuality and references to The Courtier in Shakespeare's writing. First, we'll discuss some parallels between The Courtier and Much Ado About Nothing. Then we will dig deeper into Book 3 of The Courtier and how its messages on joking, jesting, and laughter can be read in Much Ado About Nothing. We will also briefly discuss how Hero and Beatrice reflect The Courtier's ideal for Renaissance women.  Finally, we will closely examine the courtiers in Much Ado About Nothing and how the characters of Benedick, Claudio, Don Pedro, and Don John can be read through the lens of good (and bad) courtier behavior as outlined in The Courtier. We will also discuss which of these courtiers comes the closest to Castiglione's ideal courtier, and what early modern English behaviors Shakespeare may have been commenting on through this play.  Shakespeare Anyone? is created and produced by Kourtney Smith and Elyse Sharp.

Full Text of ReadingsMemorial of Saint Aloysius Gonzaga, Religious Lectionary: 369The Saint of the day is Saint Aloysius GonzagaSaint Aloysius Gonzaga's Story The Lord can make saints anywhere, even amid the brutality and license of Renaissance life. Florence was the “mother of piety” for Aloysius Gonzaga despite his exposure to a “society of fraud, dagger, poison, and lust.” As a son of a princely family, he grew up in royal courts and army camps. His father wanted Aloysius to be a military hero. At age 7 Aloysius experienced a profound spiritual quickening. His prayers included the Office of Mary, the psalms, and other devotions. At age 9 he came from his hometown of Castiglione to Florence to be educated; by age 11 he was teaching catechism to poor children, fasting three days a week, and practicing great austerities. When he was 13 years old, he traveled with his parents and the Empress of Austria to Spain, and acted as a page in the court of Philip II. The more Aloysius saw of court life, the more disillusioned he became, seeking relief in learning about the lives of saints. A book about the experience of Jesuit missionaries in India suggested to him the idea of entering the Society of Jesus, and in Spain his decision became final. Now began a four-year contest with his father. Eminent churchmen and laypeople were pressed into service to persuade Aloysius to remain in his “normal” vocation. Finally he prevailed, was allowed to renounce his right to succession, and was received into the Jesuit novitiate. Like other seminarians, Aloysius was faced with a new kind of penance—that of accepting different ideas about the exact nature of penance. He was obliged to eat more, and to take recreation with the other students. He was forbidden to pray except at stated times. He spent four years in the study of philosophy and had Saint Robert Bellarmine as his spiritual adviser. In 1591, a plague struck Rome. The Jesuits opened a hospital of their own. The superior general himself and many other Jesuits rendered personal service. Because he nursed patients, washing them and making their beds, Aloysius caught the disease. A fever persisted after his recovery and he was so weak he could scarcely rise from bed. Yet he maintained his great discipline of prayer, knowing that he would die three months later within the octave of Corpus Christi, at the age of 23. Reflection As a saint who fasted, scourged himself, sought solitude and prayer, and did not look on the faces of women, Aloysius seems an unlikely patron of youth in a society where asceticism is confined to training camps of football teams and boxers, and sexual permissiveness has little left to permit. Can an overweight and air-conditioned society deprive itself of anything? It will when it discovers a reason, as Aloysius did. The motivation for letting God purify us is the experience of God loving us in prayer.

  Episode 96 Christina Castiglione Part 1 of 2   Christina Castiglione was last seen walking along Five Mile Road in Redford Township, MI.  The date was March 19th, 1983, and it was about 8:30 p.m. Her boyfriend waited for her at a store up ahead, but she never showed.  In the distance of about a half mile, she vanished.  Her half nude, strangled body was found a week later, miles away in a state-owned recreation area.  Her murder immediately called to mind another murder, almost exactly one year earlier.  Kim Louiselle was last seen looking for a ride home in Livonia, MI, on March 20th, 1982. She, too, vanished seemingly into thin air. Her body was found a month later, nude and strangled in a different state-owned recreation area. The two cases were always considered to be connected, but two murders proved no easier to solve than one, and decades passed. Not until forensic genealogy solved Christina's case were answers also found in Kim's case.  The same man had killed both women, and when police dug into his past, they discovered some extremely disturbing information about who Charles Shaw was.
