Imperial Ambition in the Early Modern Mediterranean
Author: Céline DauverdPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1107062365
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
"Imperial Ambition in the Early Modern Mediterranean Genoese Merchants and the Spanish Crown. This book examines the alliance between the Spanish Crown and Genoese merchant bankers in southern Italy throughout the early modern era, when Spain and Genoa developed a symbiotic economic relationship, undergirded by a cultural and spiritual alliance. Analyzing early modern imperialism, migration, and trade, this book shows that the spiritual entente between the two nations was mainly informed by the religious division of the Mediterranean Sea. The Turkish threat in the Mediterranean reinforced the commitment of both the Spanish Crown and the Genoese merchants to Christianity. Spain's imperial strategy was reinforced by its willingness to acculturate to southern Italy through organized beneficence, representation at civic ceremonies, and spiritual guidance during religious holidays. Celine Dauverd is Assistant Professor of History and a board member of the Mediterranean Studies Group at the University of Colorado Boulder. Her research focuses on sociocultural relations between Spain and Italy during the early modern era (1450-1650). She has published articles in the Sixteenth Century Journal, the Journal of World History, Mediterranean Studies, and the Journal of Levantine Studies"--

Book Description
Tradition & Opulence: Easter in Imperial Russia was an exhibition that gathered an unprecedented selection of 19th- and early 20th-century material culture related to Russian Easter celebrations. Nearly 200 objects, including icons and works by Fabergé, Ovchinnikov, Grachev, Denisov-Uralsky, the Russian Imperial Porcelain Manufactory, Kuznetsov, and Gardner, as well as ephemera and graphic works on the Easter theme, were exhibited at the Museum of Russian Icons in Clinton, Massachusetts in 2020. This catalog examines the exhibition that recreated the splendor of Easter celebrations during the last days of the Tsars, a time when a tumultuous change was roiling just beneath the surface of Russian society.
