A cura di Silvio Balloni. Firenze, Polistampa 2021, cm.25x30, pp.368, ill.a colori. legatura editoriale cartonata, sopracoperta figurata a colori. Il volume, frutto delle ricerche del marchese Leonardo Ginori Lisci (1908-1987) qui riproposte in edizione critica, delinea la storia di palazzo Ginori, costruito nel 1520 e sempre rimasto in seno alla famiglia che ancora oggi lo abita. L’autore prende in analisi, sullo sfondo delle vicende costruttive del palazzo, anche le ricche collezioni che i Ginori hanno creato nel corso dei secoli, in un dialogo interdisciplinare che ha profondamente ampliato la conoscenza delle importantissime opere d’arte figurativa, plastica e decorativa custodite nell’edificio.

The introduction discusses the date of publication of Martial’s books, the themes of the epigrams of book seven as well as the transmission of the text. The autor pays special attention to the adulation of Domitian in book seven, the satirization of lawyers, legacy-hunters, parasites and dinner-guests, and hetero- and homosexuality. The commentary, preceded by a revised edition of Shackleton Bailey’s Teubner edition (1990), focuses on literary, linguistic and metrical matters. Thematic relationships with other books of Martial and other Greek and Latin literature are highlighted. Attention is also paid to the use of recurrent motifs, obscene language, puns, double meanings and proper names.

The famous sit-in at the Hornsey College of Art in May 1968 was merely the most dramatic expression of a deep-rooted crisis in art education - and in art itself. While the essential ingredients of good art - sensitivity, vitality, integrity and a readiness to communicate - remain the same, these qualities are almost entirely lacking; instead, today's pseudo-art suggests futility, a narcissistic looking inward, a chilling and impersonal coldness. The gap between artist and public widens every year; the critic does little to bridge this gap. Art has become a clever commercial speculation, part of a fantasy world conjured up primarily by the news media. An incessant, nervous demand for novel and 'exciting' work and for young talent to invest in has turned the artist into a consumer product.If art is in a sorry state, so is art education. Each year, hundreds of fine-art students are sacrificed to the myth of Art with a capital their sense of purpose distorted, their talents tragically unexplored, their hopes cruelly dashed. They may seem coolly professional, confident, up-to-date; but this is merely because they are encouraged to restrict themselves to one or two currently fashionable idioms - which, of course, must never be too hard to imitate. Left largely to their own devices, art students study the latest trends as reported in the glossy magazines, and hopefully turn out their mimicries. Unique in being trained for a largely non-existent profession - how many artists live by their art alone? - they mostly drift, disenchanted, into teaching, where they transmit their own fine-art bias and so help to perpetuate the fine-art fantasy.Such, in outline, is the case which Sjoerd Hannema puts forward. He has developed and substantiated his arguments with great cogency, and a spirited refusal to bow down before fashionable gods. With an impressive historical grasp he traces the present malaise back to its roots in the Renaissance.Includes black & white illustrations.
