Friends of the Rosary,Today, November 4th, the Church celebrates the Memorial of St. Charles Borromeo (1538-1584), bishop.Charles Borromeo, the bishop of Milan, came from a wealthy, aristocratic Italian family. He lived a lavish life, emulating the lifestyles of the rich and famous of the Renaissance in the sixteenth century. His maternal uncle, from the powerful Medici family, was the pope, who would later make him a cardinal-deacon at the age of twenty-three.When Count Frederick Borromeo passed away, many people thought that Charles, who became the head of the Borromeo family, would give up his clerical life and marry now that he had inherited the title. But he did not. He became a priest.In 1570, a famine erupted, and Charles Borromeo took the lead, bringing food to feed three thousand people a day for three months. Six years later, a two-year plague swept through the region. Borromeo mobilized priests, religious, and lay volunteers to feed and care for the 60,000 to 70,000 people.During the plague, he walked barefoot in the public streets, carrying a cross, with a rope around his neck, offering himself as a victim to God for the transgressions of his people.He personally cared for many who were sick and dying. In the process, Borromeo incurred huge debts, depleting his resources to feed, clothe, administer medical care, and build shelters for thousands of plague-stricken people.As if the natural disasters facing Borromeo were not enough, a disgruntled priest attempted to assassinate him. As Charles knelt in prayer before the altar, the would-be assassin pulled a gun and shot him. At first, Charles thought he was dying, but the bullet only bruised him.He died, dressed in sackcloth and ashes, holding a picture of Jesus Crucified in his hands.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Today we will talk a lot about Matthias Corvinus, the legendary renaissance king of Hungary whose library outshone that of the Medici in Florence and whose standing army was one of the greatest – and most expensive - military forces in 15th century Europe. Why are we talking about a Hungarian ruler in a series about the Habsburgs? Trust me, there is a good reason beyond it being a fascinating life story.The music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comIf you wish to support the show go to: Support • History of the Germans PodcastFacebook: @HOTGPod Threads: @history_of_the_germans_podcastBluesky: @hotgpod.bsky.socialInstagram: history_of_the_germansTwitter: @germanshistoryTo make it easier for you to share the podcast, I have created separate playlists for some of the seasons that are set up as individual podcasts. they have the exact same episodes as in the History of the Germans, but they may be a helpful device for those who want to concentrate on only one season.

Hoy, jueves 30 de octubre de 2025, episodio 1884 del ciclo Básicos del Marketing, hablamos de estrategia, acción y medición: cómo definir un rumbo, pasar a la acción y evaluar sin enloquecerte con los números.

Nella puntata del 24 ottobre abbiamo parlato con Andrea Mangiagalli, presidente di Lamg (Libera Associazione Medicina Generale), di medici di famiglia e Case di comunità. Quali sono i problemi legati alle nuove linee guida? Quante sono le Case di comunità con medici di base? Cosa si dovrebbe fare per la mancanza di medici di base?

Nieves Concostrina habla de la figura de Catalina de Medici.

This week on Crack the Book marks a jarring shift in tone — and in time. After months steeped in medieval imagination, we start there with Niccolò Machiavelli and end firmly in the Enlightenment with Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Their works, The Prince (1513) and The Social Contract (1762), straddle that uneasy moment when faith and hierarchy gave way to “rational” thinking. And wow, does it sound different. I didn't realize how accustomed my ear had become to the older world until now.First up, The Prince. I had only known it practically caricatured as a manual for ruthless rulers. Instead, I found that Machiavelli offers sharp, almost Aristotelian observations on how power works. Writing amid the chaos of Renaissance Italy — with popes, princes, and mercenaries vying for control — he tries to help leaders (well, Lorenzo di Medici) survive reality, not reinvent it. His advice is startlingly pragmatic: if you must be cruel, do it swiftly; keep the people's goodwill by leaving their money and families alone; and above all, don't be hated. Virtue matters less than the appearance of virtue — but even so, he respects human nature enough to work with it rather than against it. For someone with such a bad reputation, he's refreshingly honest.Before we move to Rousseau, I spend some time reviewing the Enlightenment: what it was, when it was, and how it changed thinking and therefore every other thing in the world! I think it's a necessary bridge between these two time periods and books.On to Rousseau. Two centuries and one worldview later, The Social Contract begins not with observation but with imagination: “Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains.” Rousseau builds an elaborate theory of how people ought to behave, then blames reality when they don't. His faith in reason and “natural goodness” feels detached from the messiness of human life that Machiavelli understood so well. And by the time he turns his ire on the Church in his final pages, the tone borders on bitter — foreshadowing the excesses of the French Revolution.After this week, I find myself mourning the grounded wisdom of the Middle Ages. Machiavelli may be cynical, but at least he's real. Rousseau feels like a man disappointed that humanity refuses to fit his theory.LINKTed Gioia/The Honest Broker's 12-Month Immersive Humanities Course (paywalled!)My Amazon Book List (NOT an affiliate link)CONNECTThe complete list of Crack the Book Episodes: https://cheryldrury.substack.com/p/crack-the-book-start-here?r=u3t2rTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/ LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5GpySInw1e8IqNQvXow7Lv?si=9ebd5508daa245bdApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/crack-the-book/id1749793321 Captivate -

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop sits down with Leo Guinan to talk about the Manhattan Project for Human Potential, his vision of AI as a tool for personal agency, and the Bottega model inspired by the Medici workshops as a way to reimagine networks, mastery, and transformation. The conversation moves through themes of exponential versus linear growth in the economy, the decline of manufacturing in Ohio, China's rise through complexity and control of supply chains, the dangers of time violence and information asymmetry, and the potential of prediction markets to reshape politics and business. Leo also shares his creative project Hitchhiker's Guide to the Future, which he's building as a group art experiment on Substack — you can find it at hitchhikertothefuture.substack.com.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:05 Stewart introduces Leo Guinan and they discuss the Manhattan Project for Human Potential, personal agency revolution, and the Bottega model rooted in Medici workshops.00:10 Leo reflects on networks vs. individuals, the genius–insanity line, and how exponential growth clashes with linear wages in Silicon Valley.00:15 They explore economic tension, the decline of wages, mastery in Bottegas, and the vision of decentralized innovation hubs.00:20 Conversation turns to Argentina, decentralization, and Leo's Ohio roots, tying local manufacturing decline, Anchor Hocking, and drug addiction to global shifts.00:25 Leo shares his frustration with student debt, the fakeness of the economy, and neuroses encoded into AI models like Gemini.00:30 They examine China's manufacturing dominance, mercantilism, complexity inflation, and the concept of time violence.00:35 Leo explains infinite predictors, cooperation, and consciousness as network awareness, citing Creator HQ as conscious technology.00:40 Discussion moves to rigorous mysticism, deterministic transformation, probabilistic futures, and the monkey and the pedestal metaphor.00:45 They analyze 1971 as a break between linear and exponential growth, compute access, surveillance states, and the power of human spite.00:50 Leo imagines algorithm manipulation, local AI, and prediction markets, referencing futarchy and political false choices.00:55 They close with Hitchhiker's Guide to the Future, Leo's group art project on Substack, and the rediscovery of ancient wisdom.Key InsightsThe heart of Leo Guinan's work is what he calls the Manhattan Project for Human Potential, a recognition that artificial intelligence isn't just about technology but about a personal agency revolution. He frames AI as a mirror that reveals how networks of people, rather than isolated individuals, drive intelligence and creativity.The Bottega model, inspired by the Medici workshops, is central to Leo's vision. By gathering diverse minds in tight-knit communities where mastery and exploration thrive, Bottegas become nodes of transformation — miniature Silicon Valleys where reality is fluid and imagination creates exponential value.A recurring theme is the structural flaw of modern economies: wages grow linearly while technology and capital compound exponentially. This creates systemic inequality, leaving most people crushed by rising costs while the top flourishes, a dynamic Leo witnessed firsthand in both Silicon Valley and his Ohio hometown.Leo introduces complexity inflation and time violence as hidden forces of the system. Complexity is rewarded over simplicity, making technology harder for everyday people, while time violence lets some actors leverage others' time to their own advantage, turning the economy into an arms race of asymmetries.Consciousness, for Leo, is about networks that are aware of themselves. He praises simple, embodied tools like Creator HQ that respect users' lived reality and contrasts them with AI systems unmoored from the real world. True mastery, he argues, is embodied, consistent, and grounded in human transformation rather than probabilistic shortcuts.Prediction markets emerge as a future-facing tool, offering a way to test decisions, hedge uncertainty, and surface blind spots. Leo envisions organizations running internal prediction markets and even rethinking politics by holding leaders accountable to explicit promises rather than vague partisan change.At the personal level, Leo is experimenting with transformation through his Hitchhiker's Guide to the Future project on Substack, a group art process that forces him out of his engineering comfort zone. He ties this back to ancient wisdom — from Buddha to Renaissance workshops — showing that the process of transformation has always been a deeply human practice we must continually rediscover.

En la medición de opinión pública del Centro de Investigación y Estudios Políticos de la UCR de setiembre pasado, el 57% de los entrevistados admitió su indecisión respecto de la elección presidencial de febrero próximo. El presidente Chaves seguía reteniendo un sólido respaldo del 52% de la ciudadanía, mientras Laura Fernández, la aspirante del continuismo encabezaba las preferencias con un 12% de apoyo, por delante del mismo Chaves que sin ser candidato puntuó 7%, Álvaro Ramos del PLN con un 6% y Ariel Robles del Frente Amplio con 5%. Luego con un 2% Claudia Dobles y Fabricio Alvarado y con un 1% Natalia Díaz, Juan Carlos Hidalgo y Luz Mary Alpízar del (aún formalmente) partido oficialista. ¿Qué dice la nueva instantánea de octubre? Conocemos los resultados del estudio más fresco del CIEP-UCR con Ronald Alfaro, coordinador del equipo investigador.

In this first of two programmes, Hannah French explores the lives of two 16th Century Popes: Leo X and Clement VII, and the music that surrounded them.Giovanni & Giulio were cousins, brought up together in the wealthy and influential Florentine household of the Medicis. Giovanni's father, Lorenzo "The Magnificent" and his brother Giuliano were the rulers of the Florentine Republic. In 1478, though, Giuliano de Medici was murdered in Florence Cathedral as part of the Pazzi Conspiracy. As a result, young Giulio was brought up by his uncle. Both boys were guided into a career in the church, and because of the financial and political backing that came with the Medici name, it was clear they were both destined for high office.In 1513, Giovanni de Medici was elected as Pope Leo X. He made Rome a strong political power, and as a generous patron of the arts, he helped writers, poets, painters and musicians of the High Renaissance to flourish. But, his lavish tastes depleted the papal treasury, and made many enemies who accused him of being "engrossed in idle and selfish amusements". By 1517, would-be reformers in northern Europe had had enough of papal excesses, and Martin Luther published his 95 theses which were to be the start of the Protestant Reformation. The young Giovanni de Medici was said to have had a fine ear and a melodious voice, and "loved music to the pitch of fanaticism". It's possible he learned from the great Heinrich Isaac, who was the shining musical light in late 15th Century Florence. As Pope Leo X he expanded the Sistine Chapel choir, and procured the services of professional singers, instrumentalists and composers from all over Europe.

Hannah French with the second of two programmes exploring the lives of two 16th Century Popes: Leo X and Clement VII, and the music that surrounded them.Having been brought up together in the wealthy and influential Florentine household of the Medicis, cousins Giovanni & Giulio were always destined for greatness.As Pope Leo X, Giovanni was a lavish patron of the arts. He sanctioned major renovations on St Peter's Basilica in Rome, extended the Sistine Chapel Choir, promoted the study of Greek, Arabic & Hebrew, commissioned works from artists such as Raphael & Peruzzi, and maintained a private orchestra as well as the official papal musicians. In order to fund these lavish artistic interests, Leo X encouraged the purchase of indulgences - remissions of the temporal punishment for sins – which could only be afforded by the most wealthy. Leo was also portrayed by his opponents as a man of gross excess; there were suggestions of sexual impropriety, favouritism and immorality, all of which were fuel to the fire of the burgeoning Protestant Reformation in northern Europe. Needless to say, Leo spent way above the papal means, and when he died suddenly in 1521, the papal treasury was 400,000 ducats in debt. Leo's right-hand man throughout his papacy was his beloved cousin, Giulio de Medici. Within three months of Leo's election as Pope, Giulio had been made Archbishop of Florence, and just three more months down the line, he was appointed Cardinal of Santa Maria in Dominica. By 1517, Cardinal Giulio was made Vice-Chancellor of the Church (ie, second in command). He became deeply involved in the politics of England, France and the Holy Roman Empire, which would eventually backfire on him spectacularly…When Cardinal Giulio was elected to the heady heights of the Papacy in 1523, as Pope Clement VII, little did he know the struggles that lay ahead. There was already the threat of the Lutherans from northern Europe and the Turks were making in-roads into the east. Plus, there was the childish squabbling of Holy Roman Emperor Charles V and King Francis I of France, who both demanded the Pope choose a side, leading to the Sack of Rome in 1527. And six years later, he had Henry VIII's divorce to deal with. All of this while having to impose austerity measures in an attempt to pay off some of the debts left by his own cousin!Like his cousin, Pope Clement VII was also a gifted musician. It's likely he too learned from the great composer Heinrich Isaac while growing up in Florence, and over the years he had dealings with the likes of Nicolas Gombert, Jean Mouton, Philippe Verdelot and Costanzo Festa as the music of the High Renaissance swirled around him.

Sono state approvate le Linee di indirizzo da parte della Conferenza delle Regioni e con questa approvazione prende forma concreta il nuovo modello operativo del medico di medicina generale all'interno delle Case della Comunità.

Send us a textHeadlines are loud; useful reporting is quiet and sharp. We sit with senior reporter Andy Medici (American City Business Journals) to unpack how he turns federal policy, workplace shifts and emerging tech into stories that help entrepreneurs, executives and local leaders make better decisions. From remote work battles and labor rulings to AI's promises and pitfalls, Andy shares how he filters national news into practical insights across 45 markets—and why integrity is still the most valuable asset in business journalism.We dig into the anatomy of a solid pitch and the value of true exclusives, especially for Business Journal audiences hungry for data and actionable context. Andy explains what transforms a company announcement into a reader-first story, why inbox blasts fail, and how PR pros can become indispensable sources by bringing credible datasets, trend analysis and timely access. He also opens up about navigating public skepticism of media, the line between journalism and commentary and the simple rule that earns trust: ask tough questions fairly, document outreach and update with new facts.The conversation takes a thoughtful turn on AI in the newsroom. Andy is frank about what current tools can and cannot do, why hallucinations are a legal and ethical nonstarter and where he sees real opportunities—small automations, cleaner data and better workflows. He's watching the second-order effects of massive data-center investment: power, permits, water, land use and local economies. And beyond the beat, we talk creative fuel—he's written 11 novels—as a way to keep your voice strong and your curiosity fresh.Want smarter business news you can actually use?

[Back to School]Far from being round and regular, “baroque pearls” have strange and unique shapes. Long considered wonders of nature, they inspired goldsmiths throughout the Renaissance and into the Baroque and Neo-Classical periods.

Giulio Busi"Il cantico dell'umiltà"Vita di San FrancescoMondadori Editorewww.mondadori.itIlletterato, sprovveduto, sognatore, Francesco d'Assisi è il «santo» per eccellenza. Ma è anche, nell'opinione comune, un personaggio fuori dalla storia, relegato nella sfera del misticismo e dell'utopia. Come mai, allora, la Chiesa decide di innalzarlo agli altari a soli due anni dalla morte, dopo un processo di canonizzazione tra i più brevi nella vicenda millenaria del cristianesimo? Francesco ribelle e antisistema o docile strumento nelle mani del potere ecclesiastico? Giulio Busi passa al vaglio le cronache dell'epoca, s'immerge nel mare sconfinato dell'agiografia, e poi dipinge un Francesco inedito, vigoroso, a tratti mite, più spesso provocatorio e intransigente. Quando è costretto, infatti, sa obbedire e accettare l'autorità. Ma è una scelta che gli costa, e da cui, ogni volta, riparte per inseguire la verità. Mentre attorno a lui la società scopre, e soffre, l'economia del mercato e del profitto, Francesco accoglie i lebbrosi, si unisce ai mendicanti, rivendica per sé un posto tra gli ultimi. Nei primi tempi, i benpensanti lo dileggiano, lo considerano un folle. Intanto, però, il suo carisma attrae sempre più seguaci. Nella primavera del 1212 Chiara d'Assisi, nobile per nascita, lascia i propri beni e la sontuosa casa paterna per seguire l'esempio di Francesco. È l'inizio di una consonanza spirituale che durerà tutta la vita. Ai «fratelli» che hanno cominciato a raccogliersi attorno al Poverello si aggiungono le «sorelle minori», ispirate da Chiara. Nel giro di pochi anni, il successo del movimento è travolgente. E i dubbi del fondatore diventano sempre più angosciosi. La Chiesa ha bisogno di un Ordine francescano forte, efficiente, solido. Ma lui riuscirà a difendere povertà e umiltà, a mantenere la semplicità delle origini? Al termine della sua esistenza, così breve e intensa, Francesco è malato, e deluso. Sembra sconfitto, ma nel momento più buio detta il Cantico di Frate Sole, splendido, gioioso inizio della letteratura italiana. Ringraziamento è l'esordio, inno la conclusione. Francesco lo sa, lo ha sempre saputo. La sorgente è una sola, un unico fine ha il creato. E ora il suo Cantico è libero di percorrere il vasto mondo. Che con lui se ne vada il dolore, assieme a lui si diffonda la lode.Giulio Busi (Bologna, 1960) è professore ordinario alla Freie Universität di Berlino e presidente della Fondazione Palazzo Bondoni Pastorio.

Send us a textRevisit A to Z of French Herbs - Basil - Basilic Basil, or basilic in French, is one of the world's most beloved herbs, and in France it holds a particularly fascinating place in culinary history. Often called Herbes Royales — the Royal Herb — basil carries a name rooted in royalty, mythology, and legend. From its beginnings in India to its journey through the Roman Empire and eventual embrace in French cuisine, basil has always been more than just a kitchen staple; it's a herb steeped in stories, tradition, and delicious flavor.In this episode, we explore how basil became part of French cooking, thanks in part to Catherine de Medici and her Italian entourage, who introduced this fragrant herb to the French court. We'll discover its many names, from Fabrego in Provence to Sweet Basil, Thai Basil, and even Purple Basil, each variety with its own unique aroma and culinary use. Along the way, you'll learn how basil has been used not just in food, but also in religion, folklore, and even medicine.Of course, no discussion of basil in France would be complete without talking about pistou — the Provençal cousin of pesto. We'll dive into the story of this fragrant green sauce, how it differs from Italian pesto, and its starring role in traditional soupe au pistou, a comforting vegetable and noodle soup from Provence and the Côte d'Azur. Whether you're cooking at home or dreaming of French markets filled with fragrant bunches of basil, this episode will transport you straight to the heart of Provence.So, if you've ever wondered how basil found its way into French kitchens, why it's called the Royal Herb, or how to use it in classic French dishes, this episode is for you.

Alessandra Ruspoli, Patrizia Debicke"L'enigma del fante di cuori"Ali Ribelli Edizioniwww.aliribelli.comQuattro traditori si nascondono a Londra sotto l'appellativo di Fanti. Appoggiano il pretendente cattolico contro Giorgio I, legittimo sovrano inglese. Lord Donagall, consigliere del re, dovrà sventare la minacciosa congiura, mentre il Fante di Cuori tesse nell'ombra la sua diabolica trama, seminando una sanguinosa scia di morte dietro di sé. Scritto a quattro mani, un thriller travolgente, con 360 pagine che si leggono d'un fiato. Un continuo e rapido susseguirsi di cambi d'orizzonte per un carosello che dall'Inghilterra passa alla Francia, fino a raggiungere la reggia di Versailles, avvicendandosi tra duelli, fughe rocambolesche, inquietanti complotti, pericolosi agguati, cavalcate selvagge e cadaveri eccellenti di vittime di efferati delitti. Offre anche il piacere di balli sontuosi, imponenti cerimonie di corte e cacce pittoresche, con l'appassionante ritmo di un romanzo d'avventura, le atmosfere di un feuilleton, gli intrighi di una spystory e un ventaglio di omicidi degni del miglior giallo storico.«Madre e figlia mi conducono in un'epoca piena di mistero e fascino, come se il passato fosse una città sconosciuta di cui loro conoscono vicoli e segreti: si muovono con grazia e maestria, catapultando me lettrice in una dimensione descritta magnificamente e da cui è impossibile staccarsi.» Marilù OlivaAlessandra Ruspoli ha scritto per Capital, Modaviva, Uomo Harper's Bazaar, Aqua.

Catherine de Medici lived in a century defined by the the contributions of remarkable women, and she distinguished herself as one of the most remarkable of them all. No longer an apprentice in the art of intrigue, she was sharp and strategic and brave in ways that defied cultural expectations Whatever her reputation became, her capacity for calculated action was matched by her courage in the face of adversity, all focused on one goal; to be the custodian of her family's legacy on the throne of France - against all opponents.

How many female entrepreneurs, merchants and industrialists can you name? We all know the names Rockefeller, Medici and Ford, but what about Priscilla Wakefield, who founded the first bank for women and children? Or the businesswoman Julia Felix, who built a property empire in Ancient Rome? In her new book, Economica: A Global History of Women, Wealth and Power, Dr Victoria Bateman charts the vital contributions made by women to humanity's path from poverty to prosperity. In this episode, she sat down with historian Caroline Dodds Pennock for a wide-ranging conversation - from the market queens of 18th century West Africa to the everyday working women of the Industrial Revolution, to the women who laid the foundations for the computer industry. She shows that throughout history, civilisations thrive when women are working alongside men, and decline when women are forced away from paid work into the home, and explores the lessons these histories hold for our economic future. Victoria Bateman is a feminist economist and academic. Economica is available now.

Niccolò Machiavelli (1469-1527) är en politisk tänkare vars namn i världen står för cynisk realpolitik, medan italienarna ser humor i hans texter. Machiavelli var verksam ämbetsman och diplomat i den italienska stadsstaten Florens, under det sena 1400-talet, när Italien befann sig i ett tillstånd av kulturell blomstring och politisk turbulens.Fursten skrev han efter att han fallit i onåd i ett försök att åter hamna i politikens centrum. Machiavellis idéer om makt, politik och människans natur i en tid när furstemakten stärktes kom att prägla det moderna politiska tänkandet mer än någon annan under renässansen. Hans mest kända verk Fursten väcker fortfarande debatt.I detta avsnitt av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med Verner Egerland professor i italienska vid Lunds universitet.Machiavelli var djupt förankrad i det florentinska samhället. Han rörde sig i maktens korridorer men föll själv offer för dess skoningslösa logik när han förlorade sitt ämbete och utsattes för tortyr efter Medici-familjens återkomst till makten. I exil skrev han sitt mest berömda verk – en handbok för makthavare som inte sökte idealen utan verkligheten, sådan den faktiskt var. Ett nytt sätt att tänka inom den politiska idéhistorien.Machiavelli har genom århundradena både demoniserats som cyniker och hyllats som klarögd realist. Hans namn har till och med gett upphov till termen ”machiavellisk”, som ofta betecknar manipulativt och hänsynslöst agerande. Men den verklige Machiavelli var mer komplex än så. Han försvarade republiken, drömde om ett enat Italien och var djupt intresserad av medborgardygder.Machiavellis betydelse ligger i att han bröt med medeltida föreställningar om gudomlig ordning och moralisk styrning och i stället lade grunden till en modern, sekulär politisk vetenskap. Han tvingade oss att se maktens verkliga natur – inte som vi vill att den ska vara, utan som den är.Machiavelli föddes 1469 i Florens, en av renässansens mest lysande städer, präglad av konstnärlig kreativitet men också av politiska maktkamper. Staden hade varit ett republikanskt ideal under 1400-talet men styrdes till stor del av den mäktiga Medici-familjen.År 1498, efter att dominikanermunken Savonarola störtats och avrättats, fick Machiavelli en nyckelroll i republiken som ansvarig för utrikesrelationer och militära frågor. Under de följande fjorton åren reste han vida omkring, träffade påvar, kungar och krigsledare och observerade noggrant hur makten fungerade i praktiken. Hans diplomatiska rapporter visar på en skarp analysförmåga och en realistisk syn på politikens spelregler.Bild: Montage av porträtt av Niccolò Machiavelli, målat av Santi di Tito omkring år 1500.

A royal wedding meant to bring peace… instead ended in one of the bloodiest massacres of the 16th century. On 18th August 1572, Henry of Navarre—leader of the French Huguenots and future King Henry IV—married Margaret of Valois, daughter of King Henry II and Catherine de' Medici, at Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. This marriage was supposed to heal France's religious divisions between Protestants and Catholics. But just six days later, the streets of Paris ran red with blood in the St Bartholomew's Day Massacre. - Admiral Gaspard de Coligny, the Huguenot leader, was shot in an attempted assassination… - Before dawn on 24th August, he was murdered and thrown from a window… - What followed was three days of brutal killings in Paris, spreading to towns and cities across France. Between 10,000 and 30,000 Protestants were slaughtered in one of the darkest chapters of the Reformation. In today's episode of On This Day in Tudor History, I explore: - The political and religious stakes behind the marriage - The attempted assassination that sparked panic - The horrific wave of violence that shocked Europe - What became of Henry of Navarre and Margaret of Valois  Have you heard of the St Bartholomew's Day Massacre before?

The Medici name still carries echoes of power and labyrinthine politics. But the Medici got their start as bankers, and built a financial empire that spanned fifteenth-century Europe. Popes, kings, and merchants all did business with the Medici, and the family's power over Florence grew out of its fiscal wizardry - at least until it all fell apart.Patrick's book is now available!
