El último de los grandes saqueos de Roma tuvo lugar entre el 6 y el 14 de mayo de 1527. Ha pasado a la historia como el Saco de Roma y en aquel momento supuso un evento de la máxima importancia. Los responsables fueron las tropas imperiales de Carlos V y no sólo representó la caída simbólica de la Ciudad Eterna, sino que tuvo profundas consecuencias políticas, religiosas y culturales que resonaron durante años. Pero, para entender como el ejército del rey católico pudo saquear el mismo corazón de la cristiandad, hay que comprender antes aquel momento histórico. En la década de 1520 Europa estaba inmersa en las guerras de Italia, una serie conflictos entre españoles y franceses por el control de la península itálica. Carlos V, emperador del Sacro Imperio Romano Germánico y rey de España, buscaba consolidar su dominio frente a Francia y sus aliados. El papa Clemente VII, de la familia Medici, auspició la Liga de Cognac en 1526 en la que se aliaba con Francia, Venecia, Florencia y Milán para contrarrestar el poder imperial. Esta alianza provocó la ira de Carlos V, quien, aunque no ordenó directamente el asalto, permitió que sus tropas, mal pagadas y descontentas, actuaran a su antojo. Las fuerzas imperiales, unos 20.000 efectivos —españoles, alemanes (muchos de ellos luteranos) e italianos—, capitaneados por el condestable Carlos de Borbón, marcharon hacia Roma tras varios meses de campaña en el norte de Italia. Agotados y sin salario, veían en la rica ciudad papal una inmejorable oportunidad de botín. El 6 de mayo irrumpieron en Roma tras un breve asedio. La muerte del condestable de Borbón en el asalto inicial dejó a las tropas sin liderazgo, lo que desató un caos aún mayor. Los soldados saquearon la ciudad durante días. Tomaron al asalto palacios, iglesias, conventos y monasterios. Obras de arte de valor incalculable fueron destruidas o robadas mientras miles de romanos padecían la ira de la soldadesca en carne propia. Clemente VII se refugió en el castillo de Sant’Angelo, pero no pudo evitar ni la humillación de Roma ni su caída. El saco no fue solo una cuestión de pillaje, sino un ataque cargado de simbolismo. Para los soldados luteranos, Roma representaba la corrupción de la Iglesia católica, por lo que su furia se dirigió contra los símbolos religiosos. La ciudad, quedó severamente afectada y muchos artistas e intelectuales huyeron de allí. Carlos V, muy disgustado por el comportamiento de su ejército, se terminó saliendo con la suya obligando al Papa Clemente a capitular a cambio de liberarle de su cautiverio. La humillación del papado fortaleció a los reformistas protestantes y alimentó el cisma en Inglaterra ya que Clemente VII trató de congraciarse con el emperador negando la nulidad matrimonial a Enrique VIII, que quería separarse de su tía Catalina de Aragón. Tras el Saco de Roma la autoridad papal quedó en entredicho y tardó mucho en recuperar su prestigio. La consecuencia más directa de este acontecimiento fue la decisión de convocar un concilio en Trento para rematar la reforma del catolicismo. El Papa se negaba a ello por temor a un retorno al conciliarismo del siglo anterior, pero no le quedó más remedio que ceder tras comprobar que no podía provocar al emperador sin atenerse a las consecuencias. Para hablar de este episodio que tanta relevancia ha tenido en la historia de Europa, nos acompaña hoy Yeyo Balbás, historiador y autor de “Los cuatro pilares”, una novela histórica en clave de thriller ambientada en el saco de Roma.

Puntata a cura di Jacopo Bulgarini d'Elci e Francesca Sarah Toich.Il flagello delle nuove forme di tossicodipendenza “legale”, come l'epidemia degli oppiacei, è da tempo entrata nell'immaginario collettivo soprattutto statunitense. Anche nelle sue incarnazioni pop, a partire da quelle seriali. Pensiamo a show come Dr. House o The Knick, in cui  protagonisti sono medici  affetti da dipendenze da antidolorifici. O serie che hanno raccontato in modo ancora più esplicito il flagello biblico dell'ossicodone, come Dopesick e Painkiller. O all'adolescenza tossicomane di Euphoria. Per non dimenticare gli imperi criminali prosperati sulla produzione e il traffico di droghe: da Gomorra a Narcos, da Griselda a Ozark, da Breaking Bad a La caduta della casa degli Usher…“Temi” è il format del podcast di Mondoserie che esplora le trasformazioni dell'immaginario seriale televisivo nel tempo, attraverso più serie e show. Leggi il nostro articolo su Painkiller: https://www.mondoserie.it/painkiller/ Parte del progetto: https://www.mondoserie.it/  Iscriviti al podcast sulla tua piattaforma preferita o su: https://www.spreaker.com/show/mondoserie-podcast  Collegati a MONDOSERIE sui social:https://www.facebook.com/mondoserie https://www.instagram.com/mondoserie.it/   https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwXpMjWOcPbFwdit0QJNnXQ  https://www.linkedin.com/in/mondoserie/

fWotD Episode 2959: Concerto delle donne Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Wednesday, 11 June 2025, is Concerto delle donne.The concerto delle donne (lit. 'consort of ladies') was an ensemble of professional female singers of late Renaissance music in Italy. The term usually refers to the first and most influential group in Ferrara, which existed between 1580 and 1597. Renowned for their technical and artistic virtuosity, the Ferrarese group's core members were the sopranos Laura Peverara, Livia d'Arco and Anna Guarini.The Duke of Ferrara Alfonso II d'Este founded a group of mostly female singers for his chamber music series, musica secreta (lit. 'secret music'). These singers were exclusively noble women, such as Lucrezia and Isabella Bendidio. In 1580, Alfonso formally established the concerto delle donne for both his wife Margherita Gonzaga d'Este and reasons of prestige. The new group included professional singers of upper-class, but not noble, backgrounds, under the direction of the composers Luzzasco Luzzaschi and Ippolito Fiorini. Their signature style of florid, highly ornamented singing brought prestige to Ferrara and inspired composers of the time such as Lodovico Agostini, Carlo Gesualdo and Claudio Monteverdi.The concerto delle donne revolutionized the role of women in professional music, and continued the tradition of the Este court as a musical center. Word of the ladies' ensemble spread across Italy, inspiring imitations in the courts of the Medici and Orsini. The founding of the concerto delle donne was among the most important events in secular music in late sixteenth century Italy. The musical innovations established in the court were important in the development of the madrigal, and eventually the seconda pratica.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:30 UTC on Wednesday, 11 June 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Concerto delle donne on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Aditi.

Una lettera del consigliere comunale scledense Carlo Cunegato mette in luce le carenze di organico in alcuni servizi sanitari di fondamentale importanza, e le conseguenze che queste comportano. La riflessione dell'amministratore scledense, che siede in minoranza per Coalizione Civica, nasce dal voto non unanime della Conferenza dei Sindaci del distretto.

Pero, ¿qué hace que la “Mona Lisa” sea tan especial? ¿Quién se esconde detrás de esta cara sonriente y al mismo tiempo triste? ¿Quién fue la modelo de Leonardo? ¿O se trata sencillamente de un ideal de belleza? Los expertos llevan siglos dirimiendo esta cuestión. Parece haber evidencias para dos teorías. Ambas se han transmitido por escrito, pero son incompatibles entre sí. La tesis más reconocida se adjudica al biógrafo Giorgio Vasari. La mujer retratada sería Lisa del Giocondo, la esposa del comerciante de seda florentino Francesco del Giocondo quien encargó el trabajo a Leonardo en 1503. Esta tesis se contradice con una nota del cronista Antonio de Beatis de 1517, según la cual Leonardo da Vinci habría realizado la pintura a pedido de Giuliano de 'Medici, una imagen imaginaria de Pacífica Brandani, la amante de Giuliano de' Medici con quien tuvo un hijo extramatrimonial. Ambas versiones tienen sus seguidores en la investigación actual que se hace de Leonardo. Este documental se sumerge en la época de Leonardo da Vinci con elaboradas recreaciones, filmaciones en ubicaciones originales y metodología científica.

This episode explores the role of the Pallaiuolo brothers in the development of Florentine Renaissance art, specifically through the works they completed for the Medici Palace: The Labors of Hercules. Later reappropriated, this episode also dives into how Hercules is used as a Florentine political symbol and is adaptable as both a pro-Medici and an anti-Medici symbol, similar to function of the biblical heroes David and Judith. Works DiscussedAntonio Pallaiuolo, Hercules and the Hydra, ca. 1475 https://www.uffizi.it/opere/pollaiolo-ercole-idraAntonio Pallaiuolo, Hercules and Antaeus, ca. 1475 https://www.uffizi.it/opere/pollaiolo-ercole-anteoAntonio Pallaiuolo, Hercules and Antaeus, ca. 1475, bronze Antonio https://www.wga.hu/html_m/p/pollaiol/antonio/sculptur/hercul2.htmlSupport/Watch/Follow: https://linktr.ee/italian_renaissance_podcastGet additional content by becoming a Patron: patreon.com/TheItalianRenaissancePodcast Support the show

La Nascita di Venere di Sandro Botticelli: descrizione, analisi e significato dell'opera. Simbologia, immagini del dipinto, informazioni sul committente e data di esecuzione.

Greg Jenner is joined in 16th-Century France by Dr Estelle Paranque and comedian Shaparak Khorsandi to learn all about controversial queen Catherine de' Medici.Catherine's life was dramatic from the moment she was born: orphaned when she was just a few weeks old, she was brought up by her uncle the Pope, and her childhood was shaped by the tumultuous politics of Renaissance Florence. At fourteen, she was married to the son of the king of France and shipped off to the French court, only to find herself involved in a literal ménage à trois with her teenage husband's older mistress. But after her husband became king – and even more so after he died and her sons ruled France – Catherine came into her power as queen and later queen mother. And through her children and the marriages she organised for them, Catherine's influence was even felt beyond the borders of France. She even corresponded with Tudor queen Elizabeth I!This episode traces Catherine's tumultuous personal and political life from orphaned child to grandmother of Europe, exploring along the way the terror of the French Wars of Religion, and asking whether the dark legend of Catherine 'the serpent queen' is deserved, or whether she has been misunderstood by history.This is a radio edit of the original podcast episode.

While watching the Catholic Church choose a new pope earlier this month, it seemed completely immersed in tradition. But Pope Leo the 14th is a very different leader than an earlier namesake . . Pope Leo the Tenth, from the powerful Medici family. His reign in the early 1500s and his love of partying and living like a king . . brought about one of the biggest religious upheavals in European history.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Neste episódio, os professores Jerusa Garay e Danilo Gomes apresentam a fascinante trajetória de Giovanni Pico della Mirandola, um dos grandes representantes do Renascimento. Nascido em 1463, no norte da Itália, Pico destacou-se por sua ousadia intelectual e pelo desejo de unificar os diversos saberes da humanidade. Movido por uma busca incansável por conhecimento, percorreu cidades como Bolonha, Paris e Florença, reunindo ideias de diferentes tradições filosóficas e espirituais. Resultado dessa investigação profunda, elaborou 900 teses que propunham uma visão integradora do saber. Na introdução dessas teses, escreveu o célebre Discurso sobre a Dignidade do Homem, verdadeiro manifesto sobre a liberdade e o potencial do ser humano. Suas ideias provocaram a Igreja, e Pico chegou a ser ameaçado pela Inquisição, sendo salvo por Lorenzo de Medici. De volta a Florença, vive até sua morte precoce, aos 31 anos, deixando um legado humanista grandioso. A partir de sua vida e obra, este episódio convida à reflexão sobre quem somos e qual o sentido de nossa existência, inspirando-nos a buscar, com coragem e generosidade, uma visão mais ampla e unificada do conhecimento. Participantes: Jerusa Garay e Danilo Gomes Trilha Sonora: Mozart – Sinfonia nº 40 em Sol menor, K. 550

This episode exlpores his education, life, and works in vernacular Italian, namely his Stanze and l'Orfeo. Poliziano is inseparable from the larger history of the Medici court. His output is directly tied to Medici family. He was friends with Giuliano and witnessed his murder at the climax of the infamous Pazzi Conspiracy. He was loved by Lucrezia Tornabuoni, but greatly unfavorable in the eyes of Lorenzo's wife, Clarice Orsini. Then, he helped educate the young Michelangelo and even advised on subjects for his earliest works. This discussion looks at these relationships, ultimately arriving at the questionable circumstances of his premature death at the age of forty in 1494. Works Discussed, Michelangelo Buonarotti, Battle of the Centaurs, ca.  1492 https://www.casabuonarroti.it/en/museum/collections/michelangelos-works/battle-of-the-centaurs/Follow/Support/Watch: https://linktr.ee/italian_renaissance_podcast Get additional content by becoming a Patron: patreon.com/TheItalianRenaissancePodcast Support the show

Send us a textThe Court of Lorenzo de' Medici Part 3: Large-Scale Mythological Painting The 1480's in Florence was an age of relative prosperity under Lorenzo the Magnificent. During this period, the visual arts began to take a new shape. Influenced by both classical and contemporary literature and poetry, Lorenzo's court saw the introduction to large-scale mythological painting, ushered in by the famed Sandro Botticelli. This episode looks closely at the formation of Botticelli's Birth of Venus, as well as the subsequent Court of Pan by Luca Signorelli in 1490. We discuss the cultural and political circumstances around the development of this new genre of painting, as well as a host of patrons, including the Vespucci family and Lorenzo il Popolano de' Medici. A close look at these works alongside scholarly research reveals a tension between representation and actual cultural attitudes, especially around differentiating between philosophical representation and lived, sensual realities. Works Discussed: Sandro Botticelli, The Birth of Venus, ca. 1485 https://www.uffizi.it/en/artworks/birth-of-venusSandro Botticelli, Venus and Mars, ca. 1485 https://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/paintings/sandro-botticelli-venus-and-marsLuca Signorelli, The Court of Pan, ca. 1490 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Education_of_PanFollow: https://linktr.ee/italian_renaissance_podcastYoutube Videos mentioned for extra information: Piero di Cosimo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R99_lpzeLzQ&list=PLUejELZ-zvuCN0XSgU-4JoV4ezeU6MBLb&index=4Luca Signorelli: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hE3MC80SvHU&list=PLUejELZ-zvuCN0XSgU-4JoV4ezeU6MBLbGet additional content by becoming a Patron: patreon.com/TheItalianRenaissancePodcast Support the show

Marie de' Medici believes she finally triumphed over her protege turned archenemy Richelieu and has secured her place as Louis XIII's benevolent advisor. As the proverb goes, though, pride goeth before a fall...

On this month's episode of Magus we are travelling all about Renaissance Europe and up through the layers of the heavens to undertake divine revelations into the life, times, and accomplishments of Giordano Bruno!From Bruno's early life as a Dominican priest, forced to flee one of six popes he thoroughly annoyed, right up to his horrid execution in the Campo de' Fiori, we're running through a wild highlights reel of his accomplishments - both in the development of his pioneering mnemonic memory systems through to creation of his occult philosophy, rooted in 'Egyptian Magic.'It's a wild journey, ranging from forbidden texts, hidden in the walls of a latrine, back through time to the birth of Renaissance Magic care of the likes of Pico and Ficino, into the heart of the French and English courts, to all the Universities where Bruno made himself so unpopular, wizardry aside this would still be a fascinating story. Yet, Giordano Bruno also preached a unique gospel, informed by the mythology of Hermes Trismegistus, which involved using hieroglyphics to talk to angels, flirting with Queen Elisabeth I, writing pretty ripe poetry, and trying to debate the failings of Christianity with the Pope himself...With examples of Bruno's wilder mystic beliefs as well as examples of how he shaped Renaissance science and culture, and even inspired aspects of Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy, if you know nothing about Bruno then this one is going to be a face-melter. And if you do, we bet the wealth of a mid-rank Medici that there will be things in this episode that will still surprise you! The Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays (Magic and Medicines about folk remedies and arcane spells, Three Ravens Bestiary about cryptids and mythical creatures, Dying Arts about endangered heritage crafts, and Something Wicked about folkloric true crime from across history) plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcast Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

One of the greatest periods of social and technological change in world history was the Renaissance.  At the heart of the Renaissance was the city-state of Florence. It was the home to some of the world's greatest artists and thinkers.  At the heart of Florence was a family that ran the city for several centuries. They became fabulously wealthy and sponsored much of the great art that we still appreciate today.  They also purchased themselves an enormous amount of power and even the papacy.

Lasting from the ninth century BC right up until Roman conquest in the first century BC, the Etruscans were a powerful ancient civilisation who inhabited Etruria in ancient Italy, and rubbed shoulders with the other iconic ancient cultures of their day. Often painted as a mysterious people whose culture has now largely vanished from view, researcher Lucy Shipley instead presents us with a very different picture. Speaking to Emily Briffett, she delves into the archaeological and written records to bring us closer to this fascinating civilisation – and uncover why it captivated the likes of the Medici, DH Lawrence and the Roman emperor Claudius.

Send us a textThe Court of Lorenzo de' Medici Part 2: Lucrezia Tornabuoni Lucrezia Tornabuoni (1427-1482) was one of the key figures in both the political and cultural influence of the Medici family during the late 15th century. She served as a diplomat and stateswoman in the place of her ill husband, Piero the Gouty, and helped manage affairs for Lorenzo and Giuliano during their premature rise to power. In addition to her stately duties, Lucrezia was also an important patron and an achieved poet. This episode looks at the broader scope of Lucrezia's achievements and positions them against the thriving cultural output that occurred during Lorenzo's reign. Importantly, it appears that Lucrezia was not merely the mother of a cultural giant, but directly influenced major cultural shifts in Florence and helped solidify Medici power for her son.   Looking closely at her sacre storie, particularly the violent story of Judith and Holofernes, we can observe Lucrezia as a participant in both skilled literary production and in the propagation of Medici prestige. Her poetry produces the similar effects of Cosimo de' Medici's patronage of Donatello, and his bronze David and Judith and Holofernes that were in the Medici Palace. Follow us/shop/watch: https://linktr.ee/italian_renaissance_podcastGet additional content by becoming a Patron: patreon.com/TheItalianRenaissancePodcast Support the show

We're diving into the life of a woman who defied age, wielded power like a queen, and became the ultimate Renaissance beauty icon. Diane de Poitiers seduced a king, ruled from the shadows (allegedly), and drank liquid gold to preserve her legendary beauty.Her lifelong rivalry with Catherine de' Medici—later feared as the Black Queen—is the stuff of legend. But let's not forget: like much of history, their story was written and shaped through the lens of men.Buckle up, because this one is juicy.****************Sources:https://www.ancient-origins.net/history-famous-people/mistress-midas-touch-her-hunger-gold-would-be-death-her-009589https://www.thetimes.com/article/gold-beauty-wonder-product-or-deadly-poison-times-luxury-s75l2l9rrhttps://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/how-did-people-prevent-aginghttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diane_de_Poitiershttps://www.unofficialroyalty.com/diane-de-poitiers-mistress-of-king-henri-ii-of-france/https://www.contexttravel.com/blog/articles/royal-rivalry-diane-de-poitiers-and-catherine-de-medicishttps://parisfordreamers.com/2022/03/14/historys-most-stylish-parisiennes-and-where-they-left-their-marks/Extra Info: https://monasphere.fr/soew/diane-de-poitiers-beauty-secrets***************Leave Us a 5* Rating, it helps the show!Apple Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/beauty-unlocked-the-podcast/id1522636282Spotify Podcast:https://open.spotify.com/show/37MLxC8eRob1D0ZcgcCorA****************Follow Us on Social Media & Subscribe to our YouTube Channel!TikTok:tiktok.com/@beautyunlockedthepodYouTube:@beautyunlockedspodcasthour****************Intro/Outro Music:Music by Savvier from Fugue FAME INCAdditional Music:A Certain Sadness" – Concerto in A Minor by Antonio Vivaldi (Licensed via AudioHero.com)

Henry VIII is infamous for his obsessive quest for a male heir—but he was far from the only Renaissance monarch haunted by fertility struggles. Across Europe, kings faced intense pressure to produce sons, especially in France, where Salic law strictly required male succession. From Louis XII's desperate annulment and Anne of Brittany's heartbreaking losses, to Catherine de' Medici's decade-long battle with infertility, this episode explores how fertility issues shaped royal marriages, alliances, and even wars. Discover how these intimate struggles in royal bedchambers changed the political landscape of Europe forever.https://www.englandcast.com/springbreak2025 for information on the Spring Break adventure.
