William Magnuson, a professor at Texas A&M Law School and former Harvard University professor, discusses his book For Profit: A History of Corporations. The book covers eight different corporations throughout history, illustrating different facets of corporations. William chose these eight corporations because they were relevant to the modern world and their importance in shaping society. He aimed to explore the origins of corporations, focusing on foundational moments in corporate law, such as ancient Rome's tax-gathering entities, and the Medici bank. He talks about how studying corporations over 2000 years brought to light trends and why today's citizens are more impacted by corporations than at any other time in history. William considered including the Soviet Union, which was one of the world's great experiments in trying to structure and economy without corporations. However, he did not include any consumer packaged goods or retail companies on the list. He also considered researching other major tech companies like Apple, Google, and Microsoft, but ultimately chose not to include them. He also considered adding Japanese corporations, as there is a long history within corporate law scholarship that has similarities with US law but also some major differences. He highlights the importance of understanding the legal concept of corporations and the evolution of their features over time. He also acknowledges the potential for further research into other cultures and corporations, such as Japanese corporations, which could provide valuable insights into corporate law scholarship. Common Characteristics of the Modern Corporation The concept of a corporation has its roots in various ancient cultures, including the Incas, Chinese, and Japan. Europe was largely based on the Roman model, which outsourced government services to private individuals or organizations. This model was copied in Renaissance Italy and eventually moved up to the joint stock era in the 1600s. Japan has a long history of large conglomerate organizations, which are family-oriented and have evolved over time. The American corporation is largely based on the European tradition. Some common characteristics of modern corporations include limited liability, professional management class; single entity operation, and immortality, where a corporation never dies or ceases to exist, unlike partnerships, which end when one partner dies. This is important because historically, partnerships ended when one partner died, which was problematic for tax gathering in ancient Roman republics. Corporations are immortal, meaning they continue to exist even after the death of a single member or stockholder. The Birth of the Corporation The Roman Republic's Fabian strategy, which involved avoiding set battles and using private enterprise, played a significant role in the creation of corporations. In 218 BC, during the Punic War between Rome and Carthage, the Roman commander Cornelius Skipio wrote to the Senate, asking for supplies to continue the war. The Roman senate ran out of money, they made a plea to Roman citizens for support, and in return they asked for several terms, and this led to the idea of private enterprises as a solution to the problem, and legal rights for specific entities. In the Roman Republic, corporations had to have certain institutions in place to function effectively. These institutions included the Senate passing laws, corporate attorneys, banks, and other infrastructure. The rule of law was crucial for these entities to thrive, as it allowed them to enforce contracts in court. This rule of law was a key factor in the rise of the corporation in Renaissance Florence, where fragmented policies and conflicts between duchies, barons, kingdoms, empires, and city states were prevalent. The Medici bank, for example, created a rule of law within the city of Florence, creating separate entities with 15 branches, each serving as its own entity. This allowed them to create a rule of law in a world that didn't have it. Cities and Religious Organizations as Corporations Religious organizations, such as monasteries, were also considered corporations, but they were not in the same line of business. Cities, on the other hand, were outliers in the history of corporations, as they sought to protect their liberties and rights. Cities were able to benefit from incorporation, as they were protected by the Magna Carta. Corporations are flexible entities that can be used for various enterprises. William explains the element of limited liability, which is a fascinating element of corporations. It provides risk protection for owners, allowing them to gather capital and launch larger enterprises. However, the concept of limited liability was not always clear, and some statutes are still ambiguous. For example, the East India Company, which was one of the first corporations to adopt limited liability, was a case study that illustrates the importance of limited liability in the early years of corporations. Early Ideas of Governance in Corporations William discusses the concept of governance in corporations, focusing on the separation of owners and managers and how to align them. This separation is crucial for modern corporations with hundreds of thousands of shareholders, as it prevents conflicts between managers and shareholders. One example of this is Ford Motor Company, founded by Henry Ford in the early 1900s. Ford was known for his fiddling around and raising money from wealthy investors, but faced criticism from shareholders who were concerned about his financial performance. This led to a conflict of interest between Ford and his shareholders, which eventually led to the foundational concept of fiduciary duty in corporate law. William also discusses the history of shares trading hands, mentioning that in ancient Rome, there were physical certificates representing stock ownership. However, there is little evidence on the exact structure or form of the stock market. Today, the system is moving towards an electric electronic system, making it more complex. William teaches a class on the settlement of trades, which is one of the main focuses in FinTech and other research interests. He also discusses the evolution of the stock trading system, highlighting the importance of understanding the complex nature of the process of trading shares. The History of Corporate Advisors William discusses the history of corporations using professionals outside their four walls to advise them. He cites KKR, a private equity firm, as an example of a corporation that uses an ecosystem of professionals to help it operate in the world. The role of these professionals has become more important as corporate law and the corporate form become bigger and more complicated in the modern world. Institutional investors have also played a role in the venture capital industry, often spearheading companies with the interests of venture capitalists. Facebook's structure and story are shaped by its funding model, which was honed into the idea that venture capitalists would take bets and try to reach rapid growth to create a platform effect. This model is emulated by many other startups today. There is a big debate about the corporate purpose, whether they should focus on profit or consider environmental, social, or governance issues. Throughout his research, William was surprised to find that the structure of corporations has always been similar to the debates within society, and major corporations have always led to major changes in how they are regulated. For example, mass production, oil production, and concerns about too big to fail have led to new issues being raised when there is mass production or oil production. Misconceptions about Corporations and Their Role in Society William discusses the misconceptions about corporations and their role in society. He argues that corporations were created to promote the common good, not just profit, although what could be debated is what the common good means. This idea is based on historical evidence, such as the creation of the Florentine government and Queen Elizabeth England. He also discusses the debate surrounding fiduciary duties and the role of boards of directors, managers, and officers in determining the interests of shareholders. He disagrees with some scholars about the role of fiduciary duties and the broad discretion granted to managers to consider other interests beyond shareholder profit. He believes that this broad discretion has been informed by his research into the history of corporations and the factors that have led them to thrive. William's next book is on the history of law, focusing on foundational moments in time when the way we think about law, the rule of law, the Constitution, judges, and democracy have changed. He goes back to ancient Athens, ancient Rome, and the development of the code, moving up through the US Constitution Magna Carta to the current draft of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

The Uffizi Gallery in Florence contains three paintings by Caravaggio. Two of them, the “Bacchus” and “The Medusa Shield” were sent by Cardinal Del Monte to Grand Duke Ferdinand de' Medici, while the third, the “Sacrifice of Isaac,” was acquired later. All three paintings reflect Caravaggio's unique and revolutionary painting style which incorporates shocking realism, violence, and the dramatic use of light and shadow.

Full Text of ReadingsMemorial of Saint Charles Borromeo, Bishop Lectionary: 484The Saint of the day is Saint Charles BorromeoSaint Charles Borromeo's Story The name of Charles Borromeo is associated with reform. He lived during the time of the Protestant Reformation, and had a hand in the reform of the whole Church during the final years of the Council of Trent. Although he belonged to the Milanese nobility and was related to the powerful Medici family, Charles desired to devote himself to the Church. In 1559, when his uncle, Cardinal de Medici was elected Pope Pius IV, he made Charles cardinal-deacon and administrator of the Archdiocese of Milan. At the time Charles was still a layman and a young student. Because of his intellectual qualities Charles was entrusted with several important offices connected with the Vatican, and later appointed secretary of state with responsibility for the papal states. The untimely death of his elder brother brought Charles to a definite decision to be ordained a priest, despite his relatives' insistence that he marry. Soon after being ordained a priest at age 25, Borromeo was consecrated bishop of Milan. Working behind the scenes, Saint Charles deserves the credit for keeping the Council of Trent in session when at several points it was on the verge of breaking up. Borromeo encouraged the pope to renew the Council in 1562, after it had been suspended for 10 years. He took upon himself the task of the entire correspondence during the final phase. Because of his work at the Council, Borromeo was unable to take up residence in Milan until the Council concluded. Eventually, Borromeo was allowed to devote his time to the Archdiocese of Milan, where the religious and moral picture was far from bright. The reform needed in every phase of Catholic life among both clergy and laity was initiated at a provincial council of all the bishops under him. Specific regulations were drawn up for bishops and other clergy: If the people were to be converted to a better life, Borromeo had to be the first to give a good example and renew their apostolic spirit. Charles took the initiative in giving a good example. He allotted most of his income to charity, forbade himself all luxury, and imposed severe penances upon himself. He sacrificed wealth, high honors, esteem, and influence to become poor. During the plague and famine of 1576, Borromeo tried to feed 60,000 to 70,000 people daily. To do this he borrowed large sums of money that required years to repay. Whereas the civil authorities fled at the height of the plague, he stayed in the city, where he ministered to the sick and the dying, helping those in want. Work and the heavy burdens of his high office began to affect Archbishop Borromeo's health, leading to his death at the age of 46. Reflection Saint Charles Borromeo made his own the words of Christ: “…I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me, naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me” (Matthew 25:35-36). Borromeo saw Christ in his neighbor, and knew that charity done for the least of his flock was charity done for Christ.

Catherine de Medici, born in 1519, was a member of the renowned Italian Medici family. Her life took a dramatic turn when she married Henry II of France and became Queen of France in the mid-16th century. Despite her humble beginnings as an Italian noblewoman, Catherine quickly rose to prominence and played a pivotal role in shaping the destiny of a nation. We unravel her early years in Italy, where she was exposed to the Renaissance's intellectual and artistic fervor. We then follow her to the French court, where she faced the challenges of a foreign Queen navigating the treacherous waters of the Valois dynasty. Catherine's reign as Queen of France was marked by complex political maneuvering and the enduring influence of the Catholic Church. We discuss her role in the Wars of Religion, a tumultuous period marked by sectarian strife between Catholics and Huguenots (Protestants). Her actions as a devout Catholic regent, at times ruthless and at times compassionate, left an indelible mark on the religious landscape of France. Her indomitable spirit, shrewd political acumen, and remarkable resilience in the face of adversity paint a vivid portrait of a woman who shaped the course of history. Her legacy as a formidable queen, mother, and political strategist continues to captivate scholars and history enthusiasts alike.

Before charging into the modern age, we take our usual look back on past episodes for a recap. In this case we look at the middle to late 15th century as the "big five" Naples, Milan, Venice, Florence and the Papal States struggle for dominance in a complicated balance, without forgetting interesting minor players, such as Savoy, Urbino and Trentino.

As Savonarola languishes in his prison cell, his faith is tested. Reckoning with his inner battle between hope and despair, Savonarola would then write a series of religious tracts that have since taken on great theological significance.

Giulio Busi"Gesù il re ribelle"Una storia ebraicaMondadori Editorewww.mondadori.itChi è, veramente, Gesù? Sappiamo cosa è diventato dopo la sua morte, in duemila anni di fede cristiana. Ma come lo considerano i contemporanei? Cosa pensano quando lo ascoltano parlare e mentre lo vedono agire?Poco prima della fine, egli pronuncia su di sé parole enigmatiche: «Io so da dove vengo, e dove vado. Voi, invece, non sapete da dove vengo e dove vado» (Gv 8,14). Può questo messaggio di un «re» ebreo illuminare anche l'origine e la meta della nostra vita?Attraverso un fitto e appassionato dialogo con i Vangeli, Giulio Busi traccia il profilo di un Gesù ribelle, assai diverso dall'immagine del buon pastore, mite e mansueto, trasmessa da gran parte della tradizione cristiana. È il Gesù della polemica e dell'invettiva. E, insieme, il Gesù visionario che sovverte e trascende ogni limite di spazio e di tempo, in continuo movimento tra il «qui» della sofferenza e della sopraffazione e il «là» della pace e della vita spirituale.A delinearsi con chiarezza in queste pagine è, in particolare, una «storia ebraica» del maestro di Nazaret. Per lui, infatti, gli ebrei non sono mai «loro» ma «noi». E se la sua ribellione s'indirizza anche contro l'élite religiosa giudaica, è pur sempre la ribellione di un ebreo, orgoglioso della propria appartenenza, che sa interpretare la Torah in modo straordinariamente raffinato, eppure libero, nuovo, creativo.Alla fine, Gesù è un re proscritto, su cui pende un ordine di arresto. Un rabbi itinerante braccato e costretto a nascondersi. Quando sale a Gerusalemme per l'ultima Pasqua, sa che verrà tradito, catturato, percosso, ucciso. I suoi si sbandano, rinnegano. Solo un gruppo di donne non lo lascia nell'ora più oscura. E soltanto una donna cerca il proprio maestro e per prima lo trova, all'alba, in un giardino, al di là della morte.Il giudaismo ha rifiutato il regno senza potere impersonato da Gesù. Il cristianesimo ha trasformato la missione errante dei primi discepoli ebrei, senza famiglia e senza averi, senza bagaglio e senza armi, in una realtà solida, ben costruita, capace di durare per millenni. Ma la ribellione di Gesù ancora continua.Giulio Busi è professore ordinario alla Freie Universität di Berlino e presidente della Fondazione Palazzo Bondoni Pastorio. Ha scritto di mistica ebraica, di storia rinascimentale, della filosofia di Giovanni Pico della Mirandola. Collaboratore di lungo corso delle pagine culturali del «Sole – 24 Ore», ha uno stile letterario inconfondibile, incalzante e, al tempo stesso, documentatissimo. Per Mondadori ha pubblicato: Lorenzo de' Medici (2016), Michelangelo (2017), Marco Polo (2018), Cristoforo Colombo (2020) e Giulio II (2021).IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itQuesto show fa parte del network Spreaker Prime.

Canadian filmmaker Jon Cassar has made a knack for himself on many international and Hollywood TV productions. As the Godfather of Suspence, he helmed 69 episodes + the TV movie of the TV show 24. Other recurring directing/producing credits include: Forever Knight, The Dead Zone, Terra Nova, Revolution, Medici, The Kennedys, Continuum, La Femme Nikita, The Orville & FBI saga. His big and small screen films include: Danger Beneath the Sea, Forsaken, When the Bough Breaks and Rough Air. Ryan T Richardson (20 Years of 24, Go Tell Someone) helps summarize the appeal, mystery, intense acting and overall appeal of Cassar and how these small-screen filmmakers make a name for themselves with these crowdpleasing dramas!

Catherine de' Medici has just married into the monarchy of France, arguably the oldest surviving Catholic Christian monarchy in Europe. So it's a good time to ask the question that would shape Catherine's life: how was it that a monarchy that barred women and their children from the crown also had a long history of powerful women guiding it?

This week, the International Living Podcast swoops down to the rolling hills of Tuscany, Italy. Host, Jim Santos, talks to International Living Lifestyle Editor, Seán Keenan. Seán joins the podcast fresh from a trip to the heart of the Italian region best known for its olive groves, vineyard-covered hills, centuries-old farmhouses, and art-filled cities.Florence and Pisa, where Seán spent much of his time in Italy, are among the world's most-visited destinations. Florence, famous worldwide for its architecture and the long-lived opulence of the city's Medici founders, has been a fixture of European tourism since the 17th century. Europe's educated elite made the city a stopping-off point on their ‘Grand Tour' to the antiquities of ancient Greece. Tourists are everywhere in the historic center, there to view artworks as infamous as Michelangelo's David, or Bottecelli's Birth of Venus.Pisa, too, groans under the weight of mass tourism. With a globally recognized icon of the modern tourism industry—the Leaning Tower—nestled in the city's northwest corner, the footfall of international visitors is enormous. Most come to take a photo of themselves with the tower, and leave soon afterwards.It's a missed opportunity because, overlooked by the majority of its visitors, Pisa is one of Europe's most attractive, liveable, and pleasant cities. Florence, too, away from the crush of the tourists, is an energetic and attractive civic space, with food, wine, conviviality, and charm that rewards a deeper dive than the tourist trudge from the Duomo to the Pitti Palace.It's this ‘untourist' experience that brought International Living to Tuscany; to search for the overlooked piazzas, cafés, bars, villages, and undiscovered corners of the region, as well as the flavors, customs, and charm that lies under the surface. It's surprising just how easy it is to become an ‘untourist'. And it's infinitely more rewarding than the package tour approach. Tune in for inspiration and ideas on how to make Untourist Tuscany yours.If you're enjoying the podcast, we would really appreciate it if you could leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform: https://lovethepodcast.com/internationalliving.Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | YouTube

Political tensions in Florence reach a climax, and Savonarola is challenged to undergo a trial by fire.
