Book Synopsis Carteggio (1809-1830) by : Luigi Pellico
Download or read book Carteggio (1809-1830) written by Luigi Pellico and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-09-11 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Silvio Pellico aveva in fratello quasi coetaneo (Silvio era nato il 24 giugno del 1789, mentre il fratello era nato il 13 gennaio del 1788) che si chiamava Luigi e che fu sempre per lui un amico e un confidente di progetti letterari, difficoltà economiche, speranze e delusioni d'amore. Secondo Carlo Curto, curatore delle Opere scelte del Pellico per la Utet, Luigi che ebbe una vita avventurosa quasi quanto quella di Silvio avrebbe meritato un volume dedicato integralmente a lui e non solo dei brevi riferimenti nei libri dedicati al più famoso fratello. Questa frase, letta all'epoca del dottorato, mi era rimasta in mente e, approfondendo nel corso degli anni la figura di Silvio Pellico, mi sono accorta che effettivamente anche suo fratello possedeva una personalità interessante, una personalità che le sue lettere a mio parere possono rivelare pienamente.
Book Synopsis The Forgotten Scholar: Georg Zoëga (1755-1809) by : Karen Ascani
Download or read book The Forgotten Scholar: Georg Zoëga (1755-1809) written by Karen Ascani and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-02-04 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renowned for his work within the fields of Numismatics, Archaeology, Egyptology and Coptic studies, Georg Zoëga was a figure of outstanding importance both in Rome and in Europe, at the end of the eighteenth century. Although highly valued by his contemporaries, Zoëga’s scientific legacy fell almost entirely into oblivion with the end of the Enlightenment. The Forgotten Scholar: Georg Zoëga (1755-1819): At the Dawn of Egyptology and Coptic Studies represents an exceptional occasion to rediscover the largely unknown scientific legacy of this Danish scholar consisting of hundreds of letters, drawings, sketches, notes, and other documents, mainly preserved in the Royal Library and in the Thorvaldsen Museum of Copenhagen.

Book Synopsis Austria and the Papacy in the Age of Metternich: Between conflict and cooperation, 1809-1830 by : Alan J. Reinerman
Download or read book Austria and the Papacy in the Age of Metternich: Between conflict and cooperation, 1809-1830 written by Alan J. Reinerman and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study deals with the relationship between the Austrian Empire and the Papacy during the four decades when Metternich guided Habsburg foreign policy. For Metternich, relations with Rome were of major significance for his lifelong struggle to defend the Austrian Empire and the Restoration Order against the revolutionary challenge, as well as for his Italian policy and the domestic affairs of the Empire. His downfall in 1848 was the end result of the sequence of events initiated by the election of Pope Pius IX in 1846 and the ultimate failure of his Papal policy. For Italy, Austro-Papal relations were of great consequence because of their intersection at several key points with the course of the Risorgimento, whose developments they helped to shape. - Jacket flap.

Book Synopsis A History of Alexander the Great in World Culture by : Richard Stoneman
Download or read book A History of Alexander the Great in World Culture written by Richard Stoneman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-02-03 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alexander III of Macedon (356-323 BC) has for over 2000 years been one of the best recognized names from antiquity. He set about creating his own legend in his lifetime, and subsequent writers and political actors developed it. He acquired the surname 'Great' by the Roman period, and the Alexander Romance transmitted his legendary biography to every language of medieval Europe and the Middle East. As well as an adventurer who sought the secret of immortality and discussed the purpose of life with the naked sages of India, he became a model for military achievement as well as a religious prophet bringing Christianity (in the Crusades) and Islam (in the Qur'an and beyond) to the regions he conquered. This innovative and fascinating volume explores these and many other facets of his reception in various cultures around the world, right up to the present and his role in gay activism.

Book Synopsis Sensibilities of the Risorgimento by : Roberto Romani
Download or read book Sensibilities of the Risorgimento written by Roberto Romani and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A purely political framework does not capture the complexity of the culture behind Italians’ struggle for liberty and independence during the Risorgimento (1815-1861). Roberto Romani identifies the sensibilities associated with each of the two main political programmes, Mazzini’s republicanism and moderatism, which in fact were comprehensive projects for a political, moral, and religious resurgence. The moderates’ espousal of reason entailed an ideal personality expressed by private virtue, self-possession, and a public morality informed by Catholicism, while Mazzini’s advocacy of passions led to ‘enthusiasm’ and a total commitment to the cause. Romani demonstrates that the patriots’ moral quest rested on a thick cultural bedrock, dating back to Stoicism and the Catholic Aufklärung, and passing through Rousseau and the Revolution.
