The essay explores the socio-cultural role of the main academy in Parma, the Innominati (1574-1608), which flourished in the years when the Farnese dynasty was beginning to assert more forcefully its political control over the new state of Parma and Piacenza. The Innominati was from the start associated with the ruling dynasty, who must have recognized the importance of its cultural activities to strengthening their regime, particularly in the absence of a strong local university. This essay explores the institution’s contested position within the cultural landscape – as reflected also in its membership of courtiers, clergymen, and feudal aristocrats with more ambivalent relations with the Farnese. In particular, the focus falls on the theatrical activities of the group during the 1580s, a decade which saw the establishment of the Parma Index (1580) and the succession of the internationally celebrated Duke Alessandro Farnese (1587). Based on the little surviving evidence it is argued that the Academy in the 1580s became a creative hub for theatrical experimentation – through theoretical debate and composition, and possibly even performance. However, as relations between the Farnese and the local elites, especially feudal aristocrats, became more contested the Academy’s theatrical production and the public memory of this became increasingly controlled.

La cultura musicale delle corti dell'Europa centrale nel '700 viene contrassegnata dal successo dell' "Opera seria", un genere musicale e drammatico che nonostante le sue origini italiane si espande e si diffonde rapidamente ovunque in Europa adattandosi da caso a caso ad esigenze e condizioni locali. La relazione prende in esame l'attività della principessa elettrice della Sassonia Maria Antonia Walpurgis di Baviera (1724 – 1780) che a partire dal suo arrivo a Dresda nel 1747 prende una parte assai attiva nella vita musicale della corte che occupava uno dei primi posti in Europa. Grazie alla sua dotazione musicale Maria Antonia stringe rapporti di lavoro con alcuni dei più importanti musicisti d'epoca che erano i suoi maestri e insegnanti, soprattutto con Johann Adolf Hasse formatosi a Venezia che dal 1730 era capo musicista della corte sassone. Hasse che soltanto ora viene riscoperto come compositore assistette la principessa nell'elaborazione delle sue "Opere serie". Essenziali anche i rapporti con Pietro Metastasio che oltre ad essere il più famoso librettista dell'Opera seria di allora era anche legato all'ambiente degli Arcadi che acclamarono socia onoraria la principessa a causa delle sue opere serie "Talestri e Il Trionfo della fedeltà" che segnano l'apice della sua attività da compositrice musicale. Viene sottolineato il ruolo importante della ricerca per il "vero buon gusto“e la preferenza per la semplicità della musica antica intesa come musica italiana in contrasto con la musica di gusto francese. Dopo il 1766 le opere della principessa segnate dall'influenza che ebbe la tradizione veneziana sulla vita musicale alla corte di Dresda venne criticata in Germania per il suo gusto italiano.

John Milton’s sojourns in Rome (1638-9) are attested by his comments in Defensio Secunda, by the minutes of the English College, by Latin encomia which he received from Roman academicians, and, not least, by his Latin letter to Lucas Holstenius (19/29 March 1639), and several Latin poems which he composed in the course of his residency in the capital city: Ad Salsillum, and three Latin epigrams extolling the praises of the virtuosa soprano, Leonora Baroni. Read together, these texts serve to reveal much about Milton’s participation in, and reaction to, the ‘Puissant City’, (History of Britain, Bk 2).
The present monograph presents fresh evidence of Milton's integration into the academic and cultural life of seventeenth-century Rome. It argues that his links with two Roman academies: the Accademia dei Fantastici and Accademia degli Umoristi constitute a sustained participation in an academic community paralleling that of his independently attested performance in Florentine academies (on which I have published extensively). It also investigates his links with Alessandro Cherubini, David Codner, Giovanni Batista Doni, and the Baroni circle hymned in three published anthologies.
Chapter 1: Milton and the Accademia dei Fantastici investigates the cultural climate surrounding Milton's Ad Salsillum by examining two of that academy's publications: the Poesie dei Signori Accademici Fantastici di Roma (Rome, 1637) and the Academia Tenuta da Fantastici a. 12 di Maggio 1655 (Rome, 1655), the latter celebrating the creation of Fabio Chigi as Pope Alexander VII on 5 April 1655. Read in a new light, Milton’s self-fashioning, it is argued, takes its place not only alongside Salzilli’s encomium in Milton's honour, and his Italian sonnets in the 1637 Poesie, but also in relation to other poems in that collection, and the academy's essentially Catholic eulogistic trend. The chapter also provides fresh evidence of Salzilli’s survival of the illness described in Milton’s poem by his epistolary correspondence with Tomaso Stigliani.
Chapter 2: Milton and the Vatican argues for links between Milton’s Latin letter to Holstenius and a range of Holstenius’ published works: his edition of the axioms of the later Pythagoreans gifted by him to Milton, and his published neo-Platonic works. This is achieved by mutual appropriation of Similitudes in a series of Miltonic similes, the anabasis/katabasis motifs in a reworking of the Platonic theory of the transmigration of souls, and allusion to etymological details highlighted in Holstenius’ published editions. The chapter also reveals Milton’s alertness to typographical procedures and, by association, to Holstenius’ recent role (1638) as Director of the press of the Biblioteca Vaticana.
Chapter 3: Milton and the Accademia degli Umoristi argues for Milton’s likely participation in this Roman academy, as suggested by his links with its members. His three Latin epigrams in praise of Leonora Baroni, the only female member of the Umoristi, have hitherto been studied in relation to the 1639 Applausi in her honour. In a new reading, Milton, it is suggested, invokes and interrogates Catholic doctrine before a Catholic audience only to view the whole through the lens of a neo-Platonic Hermeticism (by echoing the phraseology of the sixteenth-century Franciscan Hannibal Rosselli) that refreshingly transcends religious difference. Crucially, the hitherto neglected L’Idea della Veglia (Rome, 1640) includes further encomiastic verse, sonnets to, and by Leonora, and details of the conversazioni hosted by her family at the precise time of Milton’s Roman sojourns. Milton may well have been a participant. The chapter concludes in an assessment of his links with the youthful prodigy Alessandro Cherubini, and of his audience with Francesco Barberini.
Chapter 4: Milton at a Roman Opera analyses the potential impact of ‘Chi Soffre, Speri’, which he attended on 18/28 February 1639, mounted by Francesco Barberini to inaugurate the recently completed theatre of the Palazzo Barberini. A detailed analysis of the opera's libretto, music, and theatricality casts a backward glance to Milton's Comus, and a forward glance to Paradise Lost. It also assesses Milton’s musical interests at this time, as attested by his links with Doni, and his purchase of works by Monteverdi and others.
Chapter 5: Milton’s English Connections in Rome develops the work of Miller and Chaney by investigating Milton’s co-diners at the English College in Rome on 30 October 1638, and by analysing his links between David Codner (alias Matteo Selvaggio), and the family of Jane Savage, Marchioness of Winchester, lamented by Milton in 1631. It also assesses his potential relations with the Englishman Thomas Gawen, who ‘accidentally sometimes fell into the company of John Milton’ (Antony Wood).

Il lavoro compiuto porta in evidenza un tema di grande attualità per il progetto urbano e promuove la ricerca tipologica e figurativa volta a interpretare il luogo tramite l’analisi dei caratteri, tessuti, giaciture per capirne le criticità e da queste partire, non con la pretesa di una capacità risolutiva assoluta dell’intera gamma dei problemi che lo sviluppo del territorio pone, ma come occasione per dare un assetto ordinato a una parte di città e con l’intento di mettersi a disposizione e al servizio della città stessa, costruita e attuata come accumulo indifferenziato di manufatti privo di un qualsiasi disegno generale che lo regoli. L’idea guida del progetto è stata la scelta di rivalutare, anche dal punto di vista espositivo, il carattere di museo-laboratorio proprio dell’Accademia, così da ridefinire il suo ruolo didattico. Tra la necessità di salvaguardare il carattere di Brera come Istituzione e il bisogno di trovare una collocazione più adatta alla didattica attraverso il trasferimento degli spazi dell’Accademia nel Comprensorio delle ex caserme XXIV Maggio, Carroccio, Magenta.
