From the 1570s through the 1630s virtually all composers of secular vocal music in Italy and Europe including notable ones like Luca Marenzio and Claudio Monteverdi set one or more of their poems producing a total of hundreds of settings</strong> cfr. <em>Torquato</em><em> Tasso in Music Project</em>: https://www.tassomusic.org; https://interlude.hk/the-music-of-poetry-giovanni-battista-guarini-tirsi-wanted-to-die/.</p><p><strong><em>Editio princeps</em> della "prima raccolta organica di rime tassiane </strong>…<strong> 38 sonetti due madrigali due canzoni" </strong>A.

Fu inaugurata ufficialmente da un'orazione di Stefano Santini il primo gennaio 1564. Alle sedute bisettimanali dedicate alla discussione e alla recita di testi poetici prese parte anche il Tasso reduce dalla breve stagione trascorsa a Bologna e richiamato a Padova proprio dal Gonzaga. All'ambiente degli Eterei vanno ricondotti molti componimenti lirici tassiani di questa stagione che poi confluirono nella presente raccolta si veda l'edizione a cura di G. Auzzas e M. Pastore Stocchi Padova Accademia Galileiana 1995: alla sezione di rime per Lucrezia Bendidio il Tasso accostò altri testi dei suoi esordi dagli omaggi a Leonora d'Este a una serie di liriche d'occasione.</p><p>"A consacrare la fama dell'esordiente lirico Battista Guarini giunse l'anno successivo la prima vera esperienza di un qualche rilievo: la partecipazione su invito di Scipione Gonzaga all'Accademia patavina degli Eterei. Il ruolo e l'importanza del Guarini nel sodalizio in cui assunse il nome accademico di Costante risultano ben documentati oltre che dalla carica di segretario di cui venne insignito dal <em>corpus</em> delle sue rime accolte nella silloge degli accademici che vide la luce nel 1567. <strong>Un <em>corpus</em> che insieme con quello del giovanissimo Torquato Tasso si configura numericamente come il più folto a testimonianza del valore riconosciutogli nel novero degli undici "novissimi" poeti animatori dell'Accademia e promotori con la raccolta di una sperimentazione di prim'ordine nello sviluppo del petrarchismo veneto</strong>. Il felice "albergo delle Muse" Eteree resterà lungo la vita errante e tormentata del G. il solo fulgido esempio di una serena vacanza intellettuale di un esercizio letterario libero da obblighi servili e fondato su una pratica di relazioni personali: quel "sistema delle protezioni e degli amici" di cui sarà perno Scipione Gonzaga al quale il G. farà appello nei tempi bui delle sue disavventure cortigiane per ottenere appoggi e sostentamento. L'amicizia con il Gonzaga ma anche con altri Eterei come Ridolfo Arlotti e Annibale Bonagente oltre agli ovvi rapporti con il Tasso accompagnò il G. per tutta la vita coronata dalla scelta del cardinale come consulente e censore del <em>Pastor fido</em>. È inoltre presumibile che la stagione eterea fosse coincisa anche con lo sviluppo di quegli interessi filosofici che il G. verrà sempre rivendicando nelle <em>Lettere</em> come la più autentica inclinazione della sua indole costretta alla poesia per "diporto cortigiano" e "obbligo di servitù" ma per natura propensa a coltivare frutti di più elevata speculazione" E. Selmi <em>DBI</em> LXI 2003.</p><p>L'Accademia fu sciolta fra il 1567 e il 1568 proprio a ridosso di questo raffinato florilegio. La dedicata a Margherita di Valois detta Margherita di Francia Duchessa di Savoia Saint-Germain-en-Laye 1523-Torino 1574 che data 1° gennaio 1567 è firmata da Giovan Battista Guarini il Costante e Luigi Gradenigo l'Occulto.

19621455901962. Fine. 1962. Two vintage gelatin silver photographs visible image size 237 × 187 mm matted glazed and framed to match external dimensions 366 × 306 mm. Both photographs and frames are in fine condition. Dame Roma Mitchell 1913-2000 was Australia's first female Queen's Counsel judge university chancellor and state governor among other achievements. Mitchell was particularly proud of her appointment as Queen's Counsel in September 1962 considering it a highlight of her career and these fine portrait photographs must have been commissioned to mark this occasion. Both show her in court dress against an identical backdrop and with similar props. In one she wears her everyday bar wig and bands and in the other she wears full ceremonial dress with lace jabot and cuffs and full-bottomed wig worn only on formal occasions. <p>Mitchell's appointment attracted scant media attention but an article in 'The Australian Women's Weekly' on 10 October 1962 makes more ado of her new full-dress regalia than it does of her already-distinguished legal career and pioneering advocacy of women's causes: 'Miss Mitchell an easy-to-talk-to elegantly dressed woman of 48 is tall and will wear full dress with distinction'. For women QCs 'full dress is laid down thus: "Coat made of black superfine cloth in the same style as a man's coat except that it should not be skirted but instead be short as in a lady's ordinary suit . black flexible buttons. Plain white blouse . lace frill and ruffles at wrist. Plain black skirt of superfine cloth. Black silk stockings . black patent-leather ladies' court shoes . cut-steel buckles. Black silk gown . full bottomed wig . black silk "wig-bag" . white gloves"'. <p>The State Library of South Australia holds examples of both images PRG 778/57/5 and PRG 778/57/6 but does not identify the photographer. 2 items. unknown

149325185Nuremberg: Anton Koberger for Sebald Screyer and Sebastian Kammermeister 1493. First Edition with the German text. The bi-folium with fine hand-colouring to the Rome view. This is one of the large double-page city-view woodcuts from the workshop of Mighael Wolgemut and Wilhelm Pleydenwurff beneath 22 lines of text. It is handsomely and finely handcoloured in blues greens yellows reds grays etc. Double-page folio ca. 540 x 380 mm handsomely mounted framed and glazed. Leaves LVII and LVIII. In fine condition and very well preserved and presented. FROM THE FIRST EDITION OF THE NUREMBERG CHRONICLE ARGUABLY THE GREATEST ILLUSTRATED BOOK OF THE 15TH CENTURY. The artists Michael Wolgemut the well-known teacher of Albrecht Dürer and his stepson Wilhelm Pleydenwurff have been praised and admired for over five-hundred years for their contributions to one of the monuments of early printing. David Bland calls it "a marvelous book and a landmark in the history of illustration" and through the ages it has more than fulfilled Koberger's prophecy that it would be "the delight of the men of learning and of everyone who had any education at all."<br> A HIGHLY IMPORTANT INCUNABLE the “Nuremberg Chronicle†is the most extensively illustrated book of the fifteenth century and after the Gutenberg Bible the most celebrated book printed in the fifteenth century. Its 1809 woodcut illustrations 1164 excluding repeats depict popes saints and other religious figures kings and emperors historical and biblical genealogies mythological and fanciful creatures natural phenomena and views of all the major cities of the known world as well as a brilliant creation sequence. In addition to the full-sheet maps of the world and of Europe twenty-nine city views such as this one span two pages and eight other cuts excluding the xylographic title page are full-page. The colophon explicitly acknowledges the contributions of the artists Michael Wolgemut and Wilhelm Pleydenwurff. Albrecht Dürer was at that time a pupil in Wolgemut's workshop and there is good evidence that he did many of the preliminary drawings for woodcuts and may even have cut some of them see Adrian Wilson THE MAKING OF THE NUREMBERG CHRONICLE.
