St. Francis of Assisi by G. K. Chesterton audiobook. For Chesterton, Francis of Assisi is a great paradoxical figure, a man who loved women but vowed himself to chastity; an artist who loved the pleasures of the natural world as few have loved them, but vowed himself to the most austere poverty, stripping himself naked in the public square so all could see that he had renounced his worldly goods; a clown who stood on his head in order to see the world aright. Chesterton gives us Francis in his world-the riotously colorful world of the High Middle Ages, a world with more pageantry and romance than we have seen before or since. Here is the Francis who tried to end the Crusades by talking to the Saracens, and who interceded with the emperor on behalf of the birds. Here is the Francis who inspired a revolution in art that began with Giotto and a revolution in poetry that began with Dante. Here is the Francis who prayed and danced with pagan abandon, who talked to animals, who invented the creche. I read this book as a young man and not only did it introduce me to the amazing world of Chesterton, but it was a revelation of how an entire culture could be captured in a slim volume.

THE FIFTH DAY IN THE OCTAVE OF CHRISTMAS Now there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon. This man was righteous and devout, awaiting the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Christ of the Lord. In today's Gospel reading from Luke, Mary and Joseph take Jesus to Jerusalem according to Jewish custom to present him to the Lord in the temple. Luke tells us that the Holy Spirit revealed to Simeon that he would see Christ before his death. On taking Jesus in his arms, Simeon says, “Lord, now let your servant go in peace.” These same words are contained in the night prayer of the Liturgy of the Hours. Simeon goes on to say: “Your word has been fulfilled: my own eyes have seen the salvation which you prepared in the sight of every people, a light to reveal you to the nations and the glory of your people Israel.” Simeon was, Luke says, “righteous and devout . . . and the Holy Spirit was upon him.” Saint John, in the first reading, describes the key to Simeon's devout life of hope and expectation: “But whoever keeps his word, the love of God is truly perfected in him.” How do I live each day so that the love of God is perfected in me? God, as Simeon awaited the consolation of Israel, Emmanuel, so I wait for the understanding and consolation of the Holy Spirit. Help me learn how to keep your word so that your love can be perfected in me. What more in life is there left to desire once I see Christ the Lord? Yet, Simeon took in his arms and saw with his eyes what I can consume daily in the Eucharist: the body of Christ. Mary, Mother of God, as Simeon's blessing and prophesy must have weighed unbearably on you, pray for me for the strength to endure any hardship as I await the consolation of Christ your Son. Thank you, Lord, for your continuous presence in the Blessed Sacrament. Your body is true food; your blood, true drink. In your presence, there is no need of lamplight or sunlight because you yourself are the source of all light. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Altri artisti furono suggestionati da stelle e comete «lucenti come il sole», da Dürer a Turner, da Van Gogh, con la sua celebre Notte stellata, fino ad arrivare più vicino a noi, con la guerra e il foro di una granata su un muro della Palestina di oggi reinterpretato da Banksy: una stella ferita che scuote le coscienze.Con tavole d'arte a colori e con la collaborazione di Serena ColomboChiara Gatti è storica e critica dell'arte.

WEDNESDAY OF THE FOURTH WEEK OF ADVENT When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit, cried out in a loud voice and said, “Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. And how does this happen to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? For at the moment the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy. Blessed are you who believed that what was spoken to you by the Lord would be fulfilled.” Today's Gospel reading from Luke describes the Visitation, Mary's journey to visit her cousin Elizabeth. Luke says that on hearing Mary's greeting, Elizabeth cried out in a loud voice and was filled with the Holy Spirit. “How does this happen to me,” she says, “that the mother of my Lord should come to me?” Elizabeth's response echoes that of the second reading: “Shout for joy, O daughter Zion! Sing joyfully, O Israel! Be glad and exult with all your heart, O daughter Jerusalem!” The joy of God's presence is palpable, as Elizabeth feels John leaping in her womb. Where is that right response in me today and as the Nativity approaches? God, bring to my soul that same Visitation that Elizabeth experienced. I know you are present, and I want to know how to disperse the shadows with your Divine light. In Song of Songs, your presence thaws the wintertime of the heart and brings warmth and ecstatic joy upon your springing steps: “For see, the winter is past, the rains are over and gone. The flowers appear on the earth, the time of pruning the vines has come, and the song of the dove is heard in our land.” Look kindly on me, Lord, and grant me the grace to receive you with joy. What is that stirring that Elizabeth felt, even as she faced the day's ordinary routines and anxieties. Teach me that love! Jesus, let me make a place for you today as Mary did, the one who first knew that Emmanuel, the Messiah, had at last come. But, Lord, because I will fall short of that, guide my actions today; show me, through Jesus Christ your Son, the way to go. From the O Antiphon for today: O Radiant Dawn, splendor of eternal light, sun of justice: come and shine on those who dwell in darkness and in the shadow of death. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Stefano Zuffi"La carità e la bellezza"Tino di Camaino, Beato Angelico, Filippo Lippi, Sandro BotticelliMilano, Palazzo MarinoL'appuntamento natalizio con l'arte di Palazzo Marino, che quest'anno si estende anche agli altri otto municipi per invitare tutta la città a scoprire l'arte e la bellezza durante il periodo delle feste.Grazie alla sinergia tra le città di Milano e Firenze.Palazzo Marino si apre ai milanesi durante le festività natalizie con una mostra speciale: fino al 15 gennaio 2023, quattro capolavori dell'arte fiorentina e toscana, tutti realizzati tra il Tre e il Quattrocento, saranno allestiti nella magnifica Sala Alessi di Palazzo Marino immersi in un gioco di luci e tessuti, e potranno essere ammirati gratuitamente da milanesi e turisti.La mostra, dal titolo “La Carità e la Bellezza”, vedrà la “Madonna col Bambino” dipinta da Sandro Botticelli e oggi conservata nel Museo Stibbert di Firenze; “L'adorazione dei Magi” di Beato Angelico, prezioso tabernacolo appartenente al Museo di San Marco; la “Madonna col Bambino" di Palazzo Medici Riccardi, realizzata da Filippo Lippi; “Carità", scultura del senese Tino di Camaino, proveniente dal Museo Bardini di Firenze..La mostra è curata da Stefano Zuffi e da Domenico Piraina, mentre l'organizzazione è affidata all'esperienza e alla professionalità di Civita Mostre e Musei. "La carità e la bellezza"a cura di Stefano Zuffi e Domenico PirainaEccezionalmente riuniti quattro capolavori dell'arte fiorentina e toscana tre-quattrocentesca di Beato Angelico, Sandro Botticelli, Filippo Lippi, Tino Di CamainoLa Madonna col Bambino di Sandro Botticelli, L'adorazione dei Magi di Beato Angelico, la Madonna col bambino di Filippo Lippi e Carità di Tino di Camaino: questi i quattro capolavori che declinano il tema della carità e della bellezza eccezionalmente riuniti in occasione della mostra milanese.Carità è la splendida scultura realizzata dal senese Tino di Camaino, allievo di Giovanni Pisano, il cui stile predilige forme semplici, solide, impostate su volumi geometrici ed è del tutto paragonabile a quello utilizzato, nello stesso periodo, da Giotto. La figura allegorica della Carità è una donna che si occupa di due bambini, allattandoli al seno.Il raffinato tabernacolo di Beato Angelico, gioiello del Museo di San Marco di Firenze, è stato realizzato intorno al 1430 ed è il frutto di una combinazione di tecniche tra pittura, miniatura, oreficeria e intaglio. Oltre a offrire un tema squisitamente natalizio come l'Adorazione dei Magi, il tabernacolo offre un saggio della sensibilità di Beato Angelico verso i colori, che scintillano preziosi sull'oro del fondo.La Madonna col bambino di Filippo Lippi, proveniente da Palazzo Medici Riccardi, è una delle ultime e più compiute opere su tavola del pittore, che la realizzò negli anni sessanta del Quattrocento, appena prima di trasferirsi a Spoleto per affrescare l'abside del Duomo.Quarta opera, la Madonna col Bambino dipinta intorno all'anno 1500 da Sandro Botticelli e oggi conservata nel Museo Stibbert. Dopo aver raggiunto l'apice della fama e della carriera al tempo di Lorenzo il Magnifico, negli anni che seguono la morte del suo mecenate (1492) Botticelli è fortemente impressionato dalle predicazioni apocalittiche di Gerolamo Savonarola. Un'inquietudine che si riflette sulla sua produzione artistica di quest'ultimo scorcio di vita, che lascia intatto il suo straordinario talento pittorico ma condiziona la sua intensa resa poetica.Questi quattro capolavori provenienti dai musei fiorentini dialogano con altre importanti opere antiche e moderne sul tema della carità e della bellezza appartenenti a importanti raccolte della città di Milano.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEAscoltare fa Pensarehttp://ilpostodelleparole.it

Padova è un comune italiano di 208.533 abitanti, capoluogo dell'omonima provincia in Veneto. Ricca di luoghi suggestivi, rappresenta oggi una meta turistica interessante, a causa delle numerose attrazioni da visitare. E voi, ci siete mai stati? Vediamo insieme cosa fare e cosa visitare mentre si è in vacanza a Padova! Cose da fare e da vedere a Padova Di seguito vi proponiamo un elenco con le maggiori attrazioni, accompagnate da una breve descrizione, che la città di Padova offre ai turisti che desiderano visitarla: dalla piazza più bella alle basilica più visitata, dai palazzi più prestigiosi alle bevande più gettonate. Fare una passeggiata per “Prato della Valle” Conosciuta come una delle piazze più belle e più grandi d'Europa (è la quinta piazza più grande del continente), è caratterizzata da un'isola verde centrale e circondata da un canale, sul quale si affacciano 78 statue di personaggi illustri, tra cui Francesco Petrarca e Galileo Galilei. Visitare la Cappella degli Scrovegni La Cappella degli Scrovegni è senza dubbio uno dei più grandi capolavori dell'arte italiana, nominata di recente patrimonio dell'Unesco. Si tratta di un museo civico, presso il quale è possibile ammirare un noto ciclo di affreschi di Giotto risalente ai primi anni del XIV secolo, a cui appartiene il celeberrimo Giudizio Universale. Fare un salto alla Basilica di Sant'Antonio o più semplicemente alla “Basilica del Santo” Una delle basiliche più visitate al mondo, costituisce quasi una sorta di “tappa obbligatoria” per chi visita la città. Custodisce le reliquie del Santo e dispone persino di un sito web dove è possibile inviare preghiere “virtuali”. Visitare Palazzo Bo, sede dell'Università di Padova L'Università di Padova, una delle più antiche e prestigiose università italiane, ha visto tra i propri docenti persino Galileo Galilei per 18 lunghi anni. Nel 1678, presso l'Università di Padova, si è inoltre laureata la prima donna al mondo, Elena Cornaro Piscopia.  L'edificio è, poi, famoso per la presenza del primo “teatro anatomico”, creato appositamente per dissezionare i cadaveri e studiare il corpo umano. Partecipare ad una visita guidata nella Sala dei Giganti La Sala dei Giganti è una sala trecentesca tutta affrescata, ubicata presso Palazzo Liviano, il cui programma iconografico fu curato da Francesco Petrarca. Visitare la Torre dell'Orologio La Torre, alta 30 metri, fu elevata tra il 1426 e il 1430 sulle rovine della porta orientale della Reggia Carrarese, residenza e sede del governo dei signori della città. L'orologio astrario che vediamo oggi venne inaugurato nel 1437. È la ricostruzione fedele del precedente realizzato nel 1344. Il quadrante ha una forma circolare, con al centro il pianeta Terra e ad esso sono legate tutt'oggi diverse leggende. Visitare il “museo del pre-cinema” Si tratta di un museo molto particolare, ricco di illusioni ottiche e macchine da vedere. Ubicato all'ultimo piano del Palazzo Angeli, raccoglie tutti gli strumenti di proiezione precedenti a quelli del cinema come lo conosciamo oggi. Visitare il Palazzo della Regione, passando per “Padova sotterranea” Sotto al Palazzo della Regione, una delle maggiori attrazioni della città, si trova “Padova sotterranea”, una serie di rovine risalenti al 1200. Gustare un caffè presso il “Caffè Pedrocchi” anche detto il “Caffè senza porte” Il Caffè Pedrocchi, situato nel centro di Padova, è un caffè storico famosissimo in tutto il mondo. Il suo nome, alquanto singolare, deriva dal fatto che fosse aperto giorno e notte fino al 1916, poiché si trattava di un punto d'incontro molto prestigioso, frequentato da intellettuali, studenti e uomini politici. Bere uno spritz con gli amici Il termine “spritzen” in tedesco significa spruzzare, e questo è dovuto al fatto che la bevanda nasce nel Triveneto durante il dominio Austroungarico.

Piero della Francesca (Sansepolcro [Toscana] 1418-1492) é sem dúvida um dos maiores artistas italianos do século XV. A sua pintura espaçosa, monumental e impassível racional atinge os mais altos ideais do primeiro Renascimento, uma época em que arte e ciência estão unidas por vínculos profundos. Como Leonardo da Vinci, nascido duas gerações depois dele, Piero é um ótimo experimentador. Mestre do Afresco, uma técnica em que ele se destaca, está principalmente interessado na aplicação das regras recentemente descobertas da perspectiva à pintura narrativa e devocional: o rigor matemático absoluto de suas criações contribui para melhorar a qualidade abstrata e icônica de sua pintura, dando às suas obras-primas um poderoso valor sacro. Contexto O humanismo moderno e a “devotio” moderna O tempo de Piero é o humanismo, um fenômeno que, a partir do início do século XV, expressa uma nova confiança no mundo, no homem, em suas possibilidades cognitivas. O estudo dos clássicos literários e artísticos permite que a última fase da Idade Média construa os fundamentos do futuro renascimento. Os textos antigos são redescobertos, estátuas antigas, medalhas, moedas, fazem reviver a cultura clássica, grega e latina. A recuperação do homem, de sua fisicalidade, não é mais mortificada na inconveniência da representação, que nunca tinha que ser muito realista, especialmente se fossem santos, virgens ou mesmo Deus. Torna-se evidente o estímulo de pesquisa na direção oposta, com gosto de um realismo que basicamente celebrou o homem, confiando a Deus e às criaturas celestes, rostos, corpos e sensações que exprimiam o mundo de todos os dias. A cultura popular se tornou um modelo de valores trágicos: portanto, não mais o medo de representar Deus em uma roupa humana. Um sermo vulgaris que se torna épico na figuração parietal, nos ciclos que exaltam a Virgem em sua qualidade como mãe, na humanidade rasgada de Cristo crucificado, no ascetismo místico íntimo de um santo. Na realidade, o humanismo, na arte italiana, começa bem antes de seu paralelo literário: Arnolfo, Giotto, Nicola Pisano são os pais antigos desse novo sentimento de homem, ainda primordial, talvez inconsciente, mas já orgulhosamente tenso para perguntar a Deus o direito existir independentemente do divino. Qualquer modéstia iconoclasta começou a desaparecer desse medo de tocar os lábios de Deus com o pincel, de desenhar o busto de Cristo ou o ventre de Maria grávida. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/locus-mariologicus/message

REST: A java package for crafting realistic cosmic dust particles by Prithish Halder. on Wednesday 14 September The overall understanding of cosmic dust particles is mainly inferred from the different Earth-based measurements of interplanetary dust particles and space missions such as Giotto, Stardust and Rosetta. The results from these measurements indicate the presence of a wide variety of morphologically significant dust particles. To interpret the light scattering and thermal emission observations arising due to dust in different regions of space, it is necessary to generate computer modelled realistic dust structures of various shape, size, porosity, bulk density, aspect ratio and material inhomogenity. The present work introduces a java package called Rough Ellipsoid Structure Tool (REST), which is a collection of multiple algorithms, that aims to craft realistic rough surface cosmic dust particles from spheres, super-ellipsoids and fractal aggregates depending on the measured bulk-density and porosity. Initially, spheres having $N_d$ dipoles or lattice points are crafted by selecting random material and space seed cells to generate strongly damaged structure, rough surface and poked structure. Similarly, REST generates rough surface super-ellipsoids and poked structure super-ellipsoids from initial super-ellipsoid structures. REST also generates rough fractal aggregates which are fractal aggregates having rough surface irregular grains. REST has been applied to create agglomerated debris, agglomerated debris super-ellipsoids and mixed morphology particles. Finally, the light scattering properties of the respective applied structures are studied to ensure their applicability. REST is a flexible structure tool, which shall be useful to generate various types of dust structures that can be applied to study the physical properties of dust in different regions of space. arXiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/http://arxiv.org/abs/2209.05768v2

Join us as we consider a pack of poems by Pier Wright, and the complexities of pacing, prosody, and narrative poems with strange and powerful images: memory, tenderness, a “magnificent young moose,” & the magic of being caught in the act. Kathleen “Gratitude” Volk Miller, champion explicator and advocate for gratitude and neuroplasticity, analyzes the “small pointy hats of hope” as lovers entwine. Jason “Gorgeous Vectors” Schneiderman loves sticky collisions. Gabby and Alex and the crew ponder happy endings and surprises that feel like “Objective correlatives,” slushies. Spoiler: Marion “Sunshine” Wrenn makes an appearance from future past, or future perfect, or…something like that. It all makes a great story.  Slushies, what is your “embarrassing at the moment but will be funny later” story?    This episode is brought to you by one of our sponsors, Wilbur Records, who kindly introduced us to the artist  A.M.Mills, whose song “Spaghetti with Loretta” now opens our show.  Pier Wright attended Kalamazoo College where he was influenced by the poetry of Con Hilberry and later by that of Diane Seuss. The first poetry reading he ever attended, and has never forgotten, was Robert Bly reading from Silence In The Snowy Fields. He received a Post-Baccalaureate & Masters degree from The Art Institute of Chicago. As a student he discovered Fairfield Porter, Monet's large Water Lilly paintings at at Musée de l'Orangerie, Terry Winters, Mary Heilmann, Philip Guston's late paintings, Giotto, Noguchi, etc.. Influences include Prayer Wheels, Marie Howe, Chris Martin, Peter Matthiessen, Stephen Dunn, John Cage, Ornette Coleman, Joni Mitchell, Phyllida Barlow, the ceramic work of Toshiko Takaezu, and, most recently, the writings of C.D. Wright. While living as a hermit for several years at the end of a peninsula in N Michigan he began working with Michael Delp. He has been the director of Wright Gallery since 2002 and is recently married. Socials:  Instagram is pierdwright, Facebook is Pier Wright, and website is pierwright.net (paintings)     Driveway Poem   we arrived early at the house by the subshop after the bar closed it was cold and being new at love the only way we thought to keep warm was by undressing completely, with great urgency in the front seat of the Ford then my foot got stuck in the horn just as our friends began arriving we couldn't have left even if we'd wanted to with all the cars having parked behind us so we went to the party anyway me with my shoes untied you unfolding yourself from the car like a magnificent young moose the night sky on one side of you and the stars over there the way you had of entering a room back then as though by just walking the muddy path to the stoop a lotus popped out   Gratitude   what was once impotent in me remains in this fiery house on a small lot, crap lawn every roughed grief the small pointy hats of hope red hibiscus bushes wilting in a row the heat slicked fur of a sleeping hound a house made not of things but the relationship between things such as the desire two bodies have when flying blindly toward each other at incredible speed so, when I ask if I can make you breakfast what I mean is, I am thankful you are finally here   The Hibiscus, Key West   we shared thin, raw, slices of tuna, conch salad, cracked stone crab claws, drank dark rum, tripped over the noisy chickens on our way to your room. drank more rum from plastic cups, then a table broke, the matching chair in pieces, waltzing together across worn linoleum like aging Tantric porn stars. waking to Cuban coffee, I remember eggs, while waiting for a bus to Miami you wrote your number on a napkin.

July 23: Saint Bridget of Sweden, Religious1303–1373Optional Memorial; Liturgical Color: WhitePatron Saint of Europe, Sweden, and widowsA royal widow's visions awe the massesUpon entering the baroque Basilica of Saint John Lateran in Rome, on the first pillar to the right, is a fragment of a medieval fresco by the master Giotto. It is incongruous with the style of the rest of the often restored Basilica. The fresco has been preserved, partial but unchanged, because of its historical importance. It depicts Pope Boniface VIII proclaiming the first Jubilee Year in 1300. That Jubilee, and its indulgences, brought so many pilgrims to Rome that the original intention to celebrate a Jubilee every one hundred years was reduced to every fifty years. 1350, then, saw the second great Jubilee. Ironically, the Pope was living in Avignon at the time. For political reasons, he was unable to visit the eternal city during the very Jubilee he had called. Among the throngs of pilgrims who did swamp Rome in 1350, however, was today's saint. Saint Bridget made the grueling journey from far away Sweden. Unlike a typical pilgrim, however, she did not return home after earning her indulgence. Rome became her new home and the platform that made her, and her writings, famous. Bridget only returned to her birthplace twenty-three years later, when her daughter Catherine, also a canonized saint, carried her mother's remains triumphantly back to Sweden. They rest today in a secular museum which, before the Reformation, had been the first monastery Bridget founded.The details of the first half of the life of Saint Bridget of Sweden evoke a place long lost to history—Catholic Scandinavia. For hundreds of years, the true faith thrived in these lands and incubated great saints such as Bridget. She was married at the age of thirteen and lived happily with her husband for twenty-eight years, bearing eight children. They were a pious couple, even completing the famous pilgrimage to the Shrine of Santiago de Compostela in Spain. But her husband died while Bridget was only halfway through her life's journey. Bridget then spent three years in mourning in a Cistercian monastery. During this period, the spiritual visions she had experienced throughout her life increased in number and vivacity.After a particularly powerful vision in 1346, she founded the monastery that would eventually be her burial place. But it wasn't built to house an existing order. Responding to the words of Jesus, Bridget wanted to reform monastic life by founding a new congregation, the Order of the Most Holy Savior, or the Bridgettines. The Rule for the new Order was revealed to her throughout numerous and detailed visions. The Order was based on the Rule of Saint Benedict and was approved by the Pope only near the end of Bridget's life. The Bridgettine Order spread throughout Europe and is found in numerous countries today, due largely to its founder's incredible spiritual visions.Saint Bridget, like Saint Catherine of Siena, labored to convince the popes to return to Rome from Avignon. She invoked the Lord's opinions about the papal exile as He expressed them in her visions. One letter she wrote to the pope was so strongly worded that her envoy refused to read it when he was in the Holy Father's presence. An Italian woman Bridget had become friends with during the Jubilee of 1350 donated a large palace in central Rome to Bridget. Saint Bridget and her sisters established their Roman foundation in that centrally located palace, and within its walls Saint Bridget died. A Bridgettine convent occupies the very same building today and preserves the founder's rooms, as well as a relic of Bridget and her saintly daughter.Saint Bridget was canonized eighteen years after her death, in 1391, due to her Christian virtue, her deep and sincere piety, her life of strict poverty and assistance to the poor, her devotion to the Virgin Mary, and her many pilgrimages to the shrines of the saints. She was a saint who loved saints. But she became famous for other reasons—mainly because of her intense, highly detailed, and provocative spiritual revelations. The revelations were written down in both Swedish and Latin, translated into multiple languages, and then diffused throughout Europe. Christ's arresting words on death and judgment, heaven and hell, and right and wrong sparked the imaginations of all who read Saint Bridget's writings. Saint Pope John Paul II named Saint Bridget a co-patron of Europe in 1999.Saint Bridget, may your example of poverty, devotion, and prayer be an example to all who seek to live a life in Christ, and may your writings fire our imaginations to burn ever hotter and brighter with love of God.

Marialuisa Bianchi"La promessa di Ekaterina"Dai sotterranei di Siena alle nozze di Lorenzo il Magnificoend edizionihttps://end-edizioni.org/Strappata da bambina alla sua terra, la Russia, con cui mantiene un profondo legame affettivo e culturale, Ekaterina attraversa la “storia notturna” di un Quattrocento intriso di magia e di mistero e lo fa addentrandosi nel dedalo dei bottini senesi (i canali sotterranei che attraversano la città) per poi riemergere ricca di conoscenze che ne influenzeranno il destino. Donne indimenticabili, di cui alcune come Gabrina degli Albeti realmente esistite, affollano pagine ricche di accadimenti che ci restituiscono l'immagine a tutto tondo di un universo femminile,costretto, ora come allora, a fare i conti con le violenze e i pregiudizi.Ekaterina, la schiava russa del primo romanzo di Marialuisa Bianchi, torna da protagonista in questa nuova vicenda che si sviluppa a partire dall'Ospedale del Santa Maria della Scala di Siena per approdare a Firenze, nei giorni in cui si svolgono i festeggiamenti per le nozze di Lorenzo de' Medici con Clarice Orsini. Ancora una volta a occupare la scena non sono i potenti, i ricchi mercanti, l'aristocrazia del Rinascimento, ma donne e uomini che popolano le piazze e le strade all'ombra della Torre del Mangia e del Campanile di Giotto, a cui viene data finalmente voce e visibilità. Attente ricerche d'archivio conferiscono forma e sostanza a personaggi nati dall'immaginazione dell' autrice e si mescolano ad altri che la Storia ci ha consegnato. Riecheggiando il romanzo cortese, l'amore occupa un posto centrale nella narrazione, ma è soprattutto il topos della quête, della ricerca, che contraddistingue questa nuova fase della vita di Ekaterina. Ricerca di un figlio perduto, ma anche e soprattutto di un nuovo inizio, di una nuova consapevolezza di sé e della libertà dai vincoli ingiusti della schiavitù. Marialuisa Bianchi, molisana d'origine, si è laureata in storia medievale a Firenze dove vive. Ha insegnato Italiano e Storia nelle scuole superiori. Ha pubblicato il romanzo storico “Ekaterina, una schiava russa nella Firenze dei Medici nel 2021” e “La promessa di Ekaterina” (edizioni End).

Marco Jellinek"Officina Libraria"https://www.officinalibraria.net/Officina Libraria, “casa editrice” in latino umanistico, ha vocazione internazionale ed è specializzata in pubblicazioni d'arte e illustrati.Fondata nell'ottobre 2006 a Milano e oggi a Roma, l'Officina Libraria di Marco Jellinek e Paola Gallerani ha pubblicato da allora oltre 450 titoli, che spaziano dalla saggistica storico artistica alla fotografia, dal design di gioielli alla ceroplastica, aprendo di recente alla storia e alla letteratura.Molti dei volumi più ricercati sono produzioni o coedizioni con prestigiose istituzioni italiane e straniere: dalla I Tatti – The Harvard University Center for Italian Renaissance Studies (l'imponente catalogo della collezione di dipinti, la collana I Tatti Research Series), al Kunsthistoriches Institut di Firenze e al Centro Internazionale Studi di Architettura Andrea Palladio; dalla Galleria d'Arte Moderna di Milano (la guida di tutti i dipinti esposti e il catalogo della mostra 100 anni di scultura) alla Galleria Borghese (le mostre su Bernini, Picasso e Valadier e i prossimi cataloghi ragionati delle Sculture e degli Arredi), le Gallerie Nazionali Barberini Corsini (diversi cataloghi e i 100 capolavori), dal Museo del Bargello (il catalogo ragionato degli avori) all'Accademia Carrara di Bergamo (100 capolavori, il catalogo ragionato dei dipinti del XIV-XV secolo) per citarne alcuni. Senza dimenticare il musée du Louvre, di cui Officina è il solo coeditore italiano: con la preziosa collana di facsimili del Cabinet des dessins, la serie dei cataloghi ragionati dei disegni italiani e i volumi per mostre come Giotto, Messerschmidt, Valentin de Boulogne, Rembrandt fino a Le corps et l'ame, sulla scultura italiana del '500, insignito del Prix du catalogue d'exposition 2021, e che nell'edizione italiana accompagna la mostra Il corpo e l'anima al Castello Sforzesco di Milano.Che si tratti di cataloghi di mostre, opere di fondo, guide o saggistica applichiamo all'editoria contemporanea, che ha tempi di produzione sempre più serrati, l'attenzione e la cura editoriale d'altre epoche, sia nella redazione che nei progetti grafici e nella riproduzione delle immagini. Alla base del nostro lavoro c'è il progetto culturale di fare libri di qualità, nei contenuti e nella forma, restituendo all'editore quel ruolo di mediazione culturale e non semplice marchio di produzione che gli è proprio, nella scelta dei progetti, nell'interazione con autori, istituzioni e committenti, nella realizzazione dei volumi, e nella loro promozione e diffusione a pubblicazione avvenuta, sia attraverso le librerie (in Italia siamo distribuiti da Messaggerie Libri; in Francia da Daudin (DOD & Cie), in US-UK e resto del mondo da ACC Art Books) che nei principali bookshop di mostre e musei, e con campagne mailing specifiche presso le biblioteche italiane e straniere.Marco Jellinek • Laureato in chimica e filosofia alla University of Kansas, ha cominciato ad occuparsi di editoria nel 1987 come redattore e responsabile commerciale extra-librario alla Jaca Book di Milano, per passare alla Disney Libri come senior editor e poi come direttore marketing da Skira. Nel 2002 ha fondato la 5 Continents Editions e nel 2005 la consociata Equatore che ha diretto fino all'ottobre 2006, pubblicando prestigiosi volumi d'arte e fotografia, come Parate Trionfali e New Guinea, rispettivamente vincitori dei premi Justus Lipsius e 2006 AAM Museum Publications Design Competition.È la mente economica e strategica di Officina Libraria e le scelte editoriali poggiano sulla sua cultura storico artistica, seconda soltanto alla sua passione per la montagna.Paola Gallerani • Laureata e specializzata in storia dell'arte all'Università degli Studi di Milano, è stata caporedattore della 5 Continents Editions dalla sua fondazione al maggio 2006, occupandosi del coordinamento editoriale dei volumi d'arte e saggistica e di tutte le coedizioni con il musée du Louvre. Ha collaborato con la Fondazione Arnoldo e Alberto Mondadori, catalogando l'archivio Giovanni Testori, di cui è la principale esperta, e ha insegnato Organizzazione delle attività editoriali all'Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera.Nell'ottobre 2006 fonda con Marco Jellinek l'Officina Libraria, occupandosi oltre che della direzione editoriale anche della grafica della maggior parte dei volumi. Dal 2011 si occupa anche di LO, l'etichetta per bambini, scegliendone i titoli con Marco, spesso traducendoli e a volte inventandoli (anche con lo pseudonimo di Amélie Galé). Nel 2016 crea Ab Ovo edizioni, il marchio di Officina dedicato a salute e benessere.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

Back to the medieval! We talk about Saint Francis of Assisi and his Canticle of the Creatures, one of the first examples of written Italian. Anne once fantasized about a sitcom based on his life called Everybody Loves Francis! (Mostly just for the title.) And then take a trip to his hometown of Assisi in Umbria: how to get around, what to see, where to stay, and (as always!) what to eat! Pax et bonum! Pace e bene! Peace and Goodness!Patron saint of animals and ecology as well as the country of Italy (along with Catherine of Siena), Francis did quite a bit of traveling, preaching as he went. Yet he always came back to his hometown of Assisi. Well worth a visit today not only for its connection to its famous native son, Assisi is a marvelous example of a medieval Italian hilltop town. Francis is buried in the lower basilica of San Francesco in Assisi, where you can also admire the frescoes attributed to Giotto in the upper church that depict Francis's life and miracles. Also in the historic center of Assisi you can visit the Basilica of Santa Chiara, which contains the saint's crypt as well as the crucifix, which, according to the legend, first called Francis to "repair my church."As we mention in the episode, Francis died in the lower part of the town of Assisi, in this church of the Porziuncola, today enclosed by the Basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli. We also talked about hiking up to the Eremo delle Carceri, a lovely place in the woods where Francis and his followers would retreat for solitude and prayer.And we also talked a lot about eating! A great place to eat (and stay) about a kilometer outside of the city walls is the Ristorante La Stalla at Fontemaggio, which, as the name suggests, is housed in a converted stall. You can try local favorites like pasta or meats cooked over an indoor enormous grill. Fontemaggio also has a hotel, hostel and campground.We read aloud and talk more in-depth about Francis's prayer, The Canticle of Brother Son (or Cantle of the Creatures). You can read the original and an English translation here.

Italo-Byzantine art will be considered as background to the early or 'proto' Renaissance at a time when Italy was a focus of stylistic cross-currents from different parts of Europe. The heritage of Rome and the influence of earlier traditions on artists like Cimabue, Duccio, Simone Martini and Giotto will be examined in the context of the 'rebirth' of the arts in Renaissance Italy.A lecture by Valerie Shrimplin 16 FebruaryThe transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/giotto-renaissanceGresham College has been giving free public lectures since 1597.
