内容説明

The essays in this volume offer a portrait of Venice from the establishment of the Republic at the end of the 13th century to its fall to Napoleon in 1797. In contrast to efforts which have characterized Venice's politics as strictly republican, the volume presents a more fluid and complex interpretation of Venetian culture. Drawing on a variety of disciplines - history, art history and musicology - these essays show that fundamental social categories such as nobility and citizenship were continually modifed and renegotiated throughout the Republic's history. In particular, the study of women and nonelites complicates the more static images of Venice that once dominated the historiography. New analyses of Venice's rule of the terraferma have profoundly altered perceptions of the Republic's politcal history and its legacies to the emerging nation-state. Finally, through explorations of the meanings and functions of art, music and architectue, these essays present variants of the myth of Venice - the nearly inexhaustible repertoire of stories Venetians told about themselves.
