La Renaissance, ce renouveau artistique, intellectuel et scientifique qui transforma l'Europe à partir du XVe siècle, ne naquit pas par hasard à Florence. Cette cité toscane réunissait alors des conditions politiques, économiques et culturelles uniques qui en firent le berceau d'un mouvement sans équivalent dans l'histoire occidentale.D'abord, Florence était une république riche et indépendante. Sa prospérité reposait sur le commerce et surtout sur la banque. La puissante famille Médicis, à la tête d'un empire financier, finançait non seulement les États d'Europe, mais aussi les artistes, les architectes et les penseurs. Cosme de Médicis puis Laurent le Magnifique comprirent que la gloire artistique pouvait servir la gloire politique. En soutenant des figures comme Botticelli, Léonard de Vinci ou Michel-Ange, ils firent de Florence une vitrine éclatante de leur influence et un centre culturel de premier plan.La structure politique de la cité joua aussi un rôle majeur. Florence n'était pas une monarchie mais une république oligarchique, où la liberté de pensée et le débat intellectuel avaient plus de place qu'ailleurs. Les humanistes florentins, inspirés par la redécouverte des textes grecs et latins, replacèrent l'homme au centre de la réflexion — une rupture avec la vision médiévale dominée par la religion. Des penseurs comme Marsile Ficin ou Pic de la Mirandole défendirent l'idée d'un être humain libre, doué de raison et capable de s'élever par le savoir.Florence bénéficiait aussi d'un héritage artistique exceptionnel. La proximité avec les ruines romaines, la maîtrise artisanale des ateliers et la tradition gothique italienne fournirent une base solide à l'innovation. Les artistes florentins expérimentèrent de nouvelles techniques : la perspective, la peinture à l'huile, l'étude du corps humain. Brunelleschi révolutionna l'architecture avec la coupole de Santa Maria del Fiore, symbole éclatant du génie florentin.Enfin, la concurrence entre les cités italiennes – Venise, Milan, Rome – stimula l'émulation. Chaque ville voulait attirer les meilleurs artistes pour affirmer sa puissance. Mais Florence garda une avance intellectuelle : elle ne se contenta pas de produire des œuvres, elle inventa une nouvelle manière de penser l'art et le savoir.Ainsi, la Renaissance florentine fut bien plus qu'une explosion de beauté : elle fut le fruit d'une société ouverte, prospère et avide de connaissance, où l'art devint le miroir d'une nouvelle idée de l'homme et du monde.

Sofia VillanoIl "divino" Guido Reni In occasione del 450° anniversario della nascita,l'esposizione presenta un nucleo di opere che documenta l'apprezzamento della corte sabauda, fin dalla nascita delle collezioni ducali e nel corso dei secoli, tra il Seicento e l'Ottocento, per l'arte di Guido Reni. Per la prima volta, dopo un complesso intervento di restauro, viene presentata la pala raffigurante l'Assunzione della Vergine, riscoperta nella chiesa parrocchiale di Abbadia Alpina, frazione di Pinerolo (TO), testimonianza della prima attività romana dell'artista. A cura di Annamaria Bava e Sofia Villano.Fino al 18 gennaio 2026, nello Spazio Scoperte dei Musei Reali di Torino, al secondo piano della Galleria Sabauda, la mostra Il “divino” Guido Reni nelle collezioni sabaude e sugli altari del Piemonte rende omaggio al pittore emiliano, in occasione dei 450 anni dalla sua nascita. La rassegna, curata da Annamaria Bava e Sofia Villano, presenta oltre venti opere tra dipinti, disegni e incisioni che documentano le diverse fasi della carriera del pittore, dagli anni giovanili alla piena maturità. Al nucleo di opere provenienti dalle collezioni dei Musei Reali, si aggiungono tre significativi prestiti dal territorio piemontese e dal Musée des Augustins di Tolosa.L'esposizione illustra l'apprezzamento della corte sabauda, fin dalla nascita delle collezioni ducali, per la pittura classicista bolognese e nello specifico per l'arte di Guido Reni (1575-1642), che già i suoi contemporanei chiamavano “il divino Guido”. Lo stile di Guido Reni, composto e luminoso, incentrato sull'armonia delle forme e sulla celebrazione di una bellezza ideale desunta dai modelli scultorei dell'antichità e dall'arte sublime dei grandi maestri del Rinascimento, doveva essere particolarmente congeniale alla ricerca di maestosità ed eleganza nella progettazione della decorazione e dell'arredo delle residenze sabaude e degli altari di corte. Il percorso espositivo si apre con le opere del maestro entrate nelle collezioni ducali nel Seicento; tra queste, le due versioni di Marsia scorticato da Apollo: quella originariamente collocata nella “Camera delle Muse” del Palazzo Ducale, successivamente requisita dalle truppe napoleoniche nel 1799 e attualmente al Musée des Augustins di Tolosa, e la sua replica seicentesca conservata nella Galleria Sabauda. L'invenzione si distingue per la forza con cui Guido Reni traduce in immagine un celebre episodio tratto dalle Metamorfosi di Ovidio, ovvero la punizione inflitta da Apollo al satiro Marsia, colpevole di aver osato sfidarlo in una gara musicale. La composizione è dominata dalla figura idealizzata di Apollo, incarnazione della bellezza classica e della razionalità divina, in netto contrasto con il corpo martoriato e il volto straziato di Marsia, simbolo della tracotanza punita.Oltre che per la sua forza visiva, il dipinto si segnala per il valore simbolico: la vittoria dell'intelletto e dell'armonia apollinea sulla brutalità e sull'eccesso, un tema caro alla cultura dell'epoca e in linea con le riflessioni che dovevano svolgersi nell'Accademia romana dei Desiosi, fondata dal cardinale Maurizio di Savoia, che ricevette in dono l'opera originale dal cardinale Alessandro d'Este per legato testamentario.Appassionato mecenate e raffinato collezionista, il principe cardinale Maurizio di Savoia, soggiornò per lunghi periodi a Roma, dove ebbe modo di frequentare gli ambienti culturali della corte di papa Urbano VIII Barberini. Grande estimatore della pittura classicista, a lui si devono importanti commissioni ad artisti bolognesi, spesso legate a sofisticate e complesse scene allegoriche.Alla committenza del prelato sabaudo si può far risalire la tela con San Maurizio che riceve la palma del martirio, proveniente dal Santuario di Santa Maria dei Laghi di Avigliana (TO), luogo di antica devozione mariana e meta di pellegrinaggi, sostenuto dai Savoia con doni e offerte nel corso del Seicento come strumento di legittimazione religiosa e politica. L'impianto figurativo vede San Maurizio al centro della scena, in uniforme da legionario romano, con il volto circondato da un'aura luminosa che ne sottolinea la santità. Deposta la spada ai suoi piedi, riceve la palma del martirio da un cherubino, mentre sullo sfondo si scorge la drammatica battaglia della legione tebana da lui guidata. Nel percorso artistico di Guido Reni, il San Maurizio si colloca negli anni 1615 - 1618, in un momento di transizione nel linguaggio del maestro, dal rigore classicista del periodo precedente verso una pittura più morbida e pastosa. Un piccolo olio su rame che ritrae un'allegoria della Fama, caratterizzato da una grande raffinatezza cromatica e formale, apparteneva invece agli averi personali della duchessa di Savoia Cristina di Francia, vedova di Vittorio Amedeo I, che forse lo aveva ricevuto in dono alla fine del 1638 dal marchese Filippo San Martino d'Agliè, suo intimo consigliere. Considerata opera autografa di Guido Reni nei primi inventari e cataloghi a stampa della Reale Galleria di Torino, La Fama sembrerebbe piuttosto attribuibile alla mano di Giovanni Giacomo Sementi, collaboratore del maestro bolognese. Altre importanti tele di Guido Reni appartenevano alle raccolte di pittura del principe Eugenio di Savoia Soissons, abilissimo stratega, comandante in capo dell'esercito asburgico, ma anche raffinato bibliofilo e collezionista di opere d'arte, tra cui alte testimonianze della pittura bolognese di gusto classicista, conservate nelle sue dimore viennesi, il Palazzo di Città e la magnifica residenza extraurbana del Belvedere. Tra i dipinti confluiti nelle collezioni reali dopo la sua morte, grazie all'acquisto di re Carlo Emanuele III, e tuttora esposte in Galleria Sabauda, spiccano il San Giovanni Battista, capolavoro della tarda maturità dell'artista, il San Girolamo, collocabile anch'esso all'ultimo periodo della sua produzione e la Morte di Lucrezia, tema particolarmente frequentato dal pittore.Giunge, invece, dalle raccolte del ramo cadetto dei Savoia Carignano e viene trasferito nel Palazzo Reale di Torino nel 1831 per volere del re Carlo Alberto, il quadro raffigurante una Lotta tra amorini e putti baccanti. L'opera è considerata una seconda versione, verosimilmente autografa, della tela di analogo soggetto eseguita da Guido Reni per il marchese Ludovico Facchinetti di Bologna, oggi conservata alla Galleria Doria Pamphilj di Roma. Una parte della rassegna è dedicata a significativi esempi dell'attività incisoria di Guido Reni appartenenti al fondo di grafica della Galleria Sabauda, come una Madonna con Bambino e san Giovannino e una Sacra famiglia con due angeli in volo, composizioni ariose, di grande eleganza formale e dal segno sicuro e leggero, colme di un sentimento di devozione e tenerezza. I legami del maestro con l'editoria sono documentati dai Dissegni degl'apparati fatti in Bologna per la venuta di N.S. Papa Clemente VIII l'anno MDXCVIII intagliati da Guido Reni, pubblicati per la prima volta a Bologna nel 1598 da Vittorio Benacci, e di cui la Galleria Sabauda conserva il frontespizio e nove tavole dell'edizione senza data stampata sempre a Bologna presso Gioseffo Longhi.A questi fogli, si aggiungono due raffinati disegni a carboncino e pietra rossa attribuiti a Guido Reni presenti nelle raccolte della Biblioteca Reale: uno Studio per una testa di frate in estasi e uno Studio di testa di giovane donna avente sul verso Studi di mani, che mostrano la straordinaria maestria e inventiva del pittore per il tratto delicato, attento alla grazia delle espressioni, all'equilibrio delle proporzioni e alla resa morbida e sfumata del chiaroscuro. La mostra si completa con l'esposizione della maestosa pala raffigurante l'Assunzione della Vergine, appena riscoperta nella chiesa parrocchiale di Abbadia Alpina, frazione di Pinerolo (TO). La presenza del dipinto di Guido Reni fin dall'inizio del Seicento nell'antica e ricchissima abbazia benedettina intitolata a Santa Maria, riedificata nel XVIII secolo e oggi chiesa parrocchiale di San Verano, dà conto di un episodio di committenza di grande interesse. La tela giunse in Piemonte grazie al desiderio dell'abate Ruggero Tritonio di omaggiare la chiesa, di cui nel 1589 era divenuto abate commendatario, abbellendola con l'invio da Roma di un'opera appositamente richiesta a Guido Reni e da lui realizzata tra il 1605 e il 1606.Il dipinto viene esposto al pubblico per la prima volta dopo un complesso intervento di restauro, eseguito dal Laboratorio di Cesare Pagliero sotto la direzione della Soprintendenza Archeologia Belle Arti e Paesaggio per la città metropolitana di Torino, con il sostegno del Ministero della Cultura e della Diocesi di Pinerolo. La tela costituisce un tassello importante della fortuna del maestro emiliano sul territorio piemontese e documenta una preziosa testimonianza della prima attività romana dell'artista, quando il giovane pittore entra in contatto anche con la moderna pittura di Caravaggio.

God's Existence: Truth or Fiction? the Answer Revealed by Gary R. Lindberg Garyrlindberg.com https://www.amazon.com/Gods-Existence-Fiction-Answer-Revealed/dp/1648042732 God's Existence: Truth or Fiction? The Answer Revealed By: Gary R. Lindberg Studying the existence of God, Lindberg takes a different approach by investigating science as well as Christian research. Lindberg's unique approach suggests that both science and the Bible were created by God and as a result the two say the same thing. Lindberg's message will show that science itself proves the existence of God because of the evidence presented.

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.

Neste episódio da temporada WOOL do podcast Portugal Manual, conversamos com Bia Maria — cantora e autora que tem feito da palavra um território de afetos, resistência e escuta. A sua escrita — que ela própria descreve como um exercício de “escreviver” — move-se entre o canto popular, o fado, a pop e a bossa nova, criando uma linguagem profundamente íntima, mas com ecos coletivos.Durante o WOOL, Bia Maria esteve em residência artística na Covilhã, onde trabalhou com o recém-criado Coro Viés – Vozes em Intervenção, um projeto comunitário promovido pela COOLABORA crl. Nesta conversa, quero saber mais sobre esse processo de escuta e partilha, sobre o poder transformador das vozes em uníssono e sobre o concerto que nasceu desse encontro, que será apresentado na Igreja de Santa Maria. Eu sou a Filipa Belo e este é o podcast da Portugal Manual.

Roberto Carboni"Il palazzo delle ombre"Un'indagine per Paul CialdiniNewton Compton Editorewww.newtoncompton.comIl cadavere di un ragazzo orrendamente seviziato viene rinvenuto sulle scalinate della chiesa di Santa Maria della Vita a Bologna. Questo è solo l'inizio di un incubo. Il sangue di martiri innocenti comincia a scorrere sempre più copioso in un crescendo di diabolica follia. Il giornalista investigativo Paul Cialdini decide di vederci chiaro e inizia così un'indagine che lo catapulterà in un dedalo di simbologie cristiane tra ricerche in polverose biblioteche e a ritroso nei secoli. Dai Flagellanti, all'Arciconfraternita di Santa Maria della Morte e a una loro magione: il Palazzo della Morte. E infine alla Madre dei dimenticati, un antro sprofondato nel ventre del centro storico della città, dove per secoli sono stati nascosti i condannati a morte dal tribunale ecclesiastico, ora teatro di efferati delitti.Roberto CarboniClasse 1968, è nato a Bologna e vive sulle colline di Sasso Marconi. È autore di numerosi romanzi e docente di Scrittura creativa a tempo pieno. Nel 2015 è stato premiato con il Nettuno d'Oro (in precedenza attribuito, tra gli altri, a Lucio Dalla e Carlo Lucarelli), nel 2016 con il premio speciale Fondazione Marconi Radio Days (precedentemente premiati Enzo Biagi, Lilli Gruber). Nel 2017 ha vinto il Garfagnana in Giallo, nella sezione Romanzo Classic. Nel 2018 è stato vincitore del SalerNoir Festival di Salerno. Con la Newton Compton ha pubblicato con successo Il giallo di Villa Nebbia, La collina dei delitti, Il segreto dell'antiquario, Il mistero di Villa Lamento e Il palazzo delle ombre.

In this engaging episode, host Dr. Matt Davis interviews fall meetings guest speaker Pastor Joel Mikkelson, asking why he chose to present messages on the attributes of God. Mentioning the apparent conflict between scarcity as the economic standard for determining value and God's infinity, Dr. Davis asks the intriguing question, “Then what is God's value?” They address God's holiness and how it suggests “boundaries of scarcity.” Then the conversation shifts to Joel's mission not only to serve faithfully, but also to enjoy serving. Dr. Davis notes that Pastor Mikkelson's ministry is complex, requiring him to lead, not serve. They talk about the balance of delegating work while continuing to actively participate in it. They evaluate perspectives of ministry in the diverse, “almost hostile environment” of California and Santa Maria's “de-churched, unchurched” culture and the faulty perception of size as a “benchmark” of faithfulness. About our guest Joel Mikkelson [‘01] is pastor of First Baptist Church of Santa Maria, California, and serves on Maranatha's Board of Resource. Raised in a pastor's family in Wisconsin, a home which engendered a desire for lifelong service, he attended Maranatha where he met his wife, Kelly. Upon graduation, they joined the staff of Kelly's home church in Santa Maria where Kelly assumed responsibilities as the finance director and Joel began his “dream job” as children's pastor. He served in that position for 14 years before becoming the lead pastor. The Mikkelsons have five children. One, a 2025 Maranatha graduate, works for the university, and another is currently a student.

Mergulhamos na fascinante história da pirataria e da predação marítima entre os séculos XVI e XIX, explorando as diferenças entre os oceanos Atlântico e Índico! Neste SciCast, desvendamos o que define pirataria, passamos por figuras que moldaram o comércio colonial, desafiaram impérios e serviram de material para histórias, mitos e lendas. No Atlântico, a Era de Ouro da pirataria, marcada por nomes como Barba Negra e Anne Bonny, foi impulsionada pelo lucrativo mercado do açúcar e pelo tráfico de escravizados. No Índico, senhores do mar como Ching Shih e os Marakkars dominavam rotas comerciais com estratégias únicas, aproveitando as monções. Da origem do Jolly Roger às raízes da pirataria nas talassocracias antigas, descubra como esses rebeldes dos mares conectaram continentes e inspiram até hoje a cultura pop, de Jack Sparrow a One Piece.

It's Tuesday, August 12th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson 4 of 5 most populated countries hostile to Christianity International Christian Concern reports that now “four of the five most populous countries in the world share a disturbing reality: Christians are systematically and harshly persecuted within their borders.” And we would add that these four nations have stepped up persecution against Christians over the last ten years. The four countries are China with a population of 1.41 billion people, India with a population of 1.46 billion people, Indonesia with a population of 285 million people, and Pakistan with a population of 255 million people. By contrast, the United States, with a population of 347 million people, is the other top 5 most populated country which actually allows for religious freedoms. Russia won't comply with 1987 moratorium on nuclear missiles Last week, Russia announced it will no longer comply with the 1987 moratorium on deployment of nuclear-capable intermediate range missiles. These missiles are designed to bring total annihilation to European cities. This opens the way for nuclear-capable launch vehicles to be deployed proximate to theaters of military operation. China doubled nuclear warheads China began its nuclear buildup in 2018—increasing its nuclear firepower from 280 to 600 warheads, and adding 350 new Intercontinental ballistic missile silos this year. This buildup took place at the same time France and the United Kingdom reduced their nuclear arsenals. 80th anniversary since U.S. dropped atomic bombs in Japan This month marks the 80th anniversary since the US dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan. The city of Hiroshima marked the anniversary with a memorial event. The city's mayor, Shiro Suzuki, addressed the gathering, as one whose parents survived the 1945 attack. Suzuki said, ”Conflicts around the world are intensifying in a vicious cycle of confrontation and fragmentation . . . and if we continue on this trajectory, we will end up thrusting ourselves into a nuclear war. This existential crisis of humanity has become imminent to each and every one of us living on Earth." Youth unemployment up worldwide The BBC reports some Chinese college graduates are actually paying for a pretend job. The outlet mentions a business called “Pretend to Work Company." With real jobs increasingly hard to come by, some young adults would rather pay to go into an office rather than to be stuck at home. This year, China's youth unemployment rate has scraped 17 percent. Canada has seen a sharp increase of youth unemployment—now at 14.2 percent. Italy's rate is upwards of 22 percent, and the United Kingdom has seen more increases of youth unemployment what they call “youth economic inactivity” in recent years—now at 13.4 percent. But youth unemployment in South Africa is the highest at 61 percent. The Apostle Paul exhorts the youth and all of us that "If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat. For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are busybodies. Now those who are such we command and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ that they work in quietness and eat their own bread." (2 Thessalonians 3:10-12) World Vision justified in denying employment to a lesbian The 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that the Christian ministry, World Vision, was well within the law when they denied employment to a lesbian named Aubry McMahon who was in a sinful relationship with a woman she called her “wife.” The court held that the ministry had not violated federal or Washington state non-discrimination laws because it was covered under the “ministerial exception.” Abortion Kill Pill has enabled abortion rate to increase despite Dobbs Americans are killing significantly more babies following the U.S. Supreme Court reversal of Roe v. Wade through the Dobbs decision on June 24, 2022. Official records put the annual number at 1.1 million, up from 880,000 in 2020. That's a 25 percent increase. The difference appears to be made up by the abortion kill pill by mail program. About 63 percent of the murder of babies is executed by the abortion pill now, and 25 percent of all abortions come by “Telehealth” or by mail. Twenty-two leading Southern Baptist pastors have issued a letter to President Donald Trump, requesting that the administration “stop the mail-order distribution of the abortion drug mifepristone.” To this point, the Trump administration has been reticent to limit access to the abortion kill pill. In May, the U.S. Justice Department recommended tossing out a lawsuit that would have restricted a reduction of access to Telehealth abortions. In an interview with interview with Time Magazine in December, the president reiterated five times, that it was "highly unlikely” the Food and Drug Administration would do anything to restrict access to the Abortion Kill Pill. However, God is in control. Jeremiah 51:19, 20, and 24 reminds us "He is the Maker of all things; and Israel is the tribe of His inheritance. The Lord of hosts is His name. You are My battle-ax and weapons of war: For with you, I will break the nation in pieces, says the Lord." California fire has burned 120,000 acres The State of California is dealing with more out-of-control fires. The Gifford Fire started up last Wednesday, and has already consumed some 120,000 acres. It's now threatening the towns of Arroyo Grande and Santa Maria. Sadly, it's only 30 percent contained. Grand Canyon fire has burned 144,000 acres The Dragon Bravo fire in Arizona has shut down the Grand Canyon North Rim for the season. This fire has burned up 144,000 acres. In God's all powerful workings, this fire began by lightning strike on Independence Day, July 4th. Despite tariff revenues, 2025 U.S. deficit is $109 million higher than 2024 And finally, despite the Department of Government Efficiency, the tariff hullabaloo, and the influx of import taxes to the federal government coffers, this year's deficit, through July, is a whopping $109 billion more than it was last year. The deficit totaled $1.6 trillion over the first 10 months of fiscal year 2025—heading towards a $1.9 trillion deficit for the year. That's about eight times the average deficit incurred under the George W. Bush administration. Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, August 12th, in the year of our Lord 2025.
