The famed linen cloth preserved in Turin Cathedral has provoked pious devotion, scientific scrutiny, and morbid curiosity. Imprinted with an image many faithful have traditionally believed to be that of the crucified Christ "painted in his own blood," the Shroud remains an object of intense debate and notoriety yet today. In this amply illustrated volume, John Beldon Scott traces the history of the unique relic, focusing especially on the black-marble and gilt-bronze structure Guarino Guarini designed to house and exhibit it. A key Baroque monument, the chapel comprises many unusual architectural features, which Scott identifies and explains, particulary how the chapel's unprecedented geometry and bizarre imagery convey to the viewer the supernatural powers of the object enshrined there. Drawing on early plans and documents, he demonstrates how the architect's design mirrors the Shroud's strange history as well as political aspirations of its owners, the Dukes of Savoy. Exhibiting it ritually, the Savoy prized their relic with its godly vestige as a means to link their dynasty with divine purposes. Guarini, too, promoted this end by fashioning an illusionary world and sacred space that positioned the duke visually so that he appeared close to the Shroud during its ceremonial display. Finally, Scott describes how the additional need for an outdoor stage for the public showing of the relic to the thousands who came to Turin to see it also helped shape the urban plan of the city and its transformation into the Savoyard capital. Exploring the mystique of this enigmatic relic and investigating its architectural and urban history for the first time, Architecture for the Shroud will appeal to anyone curious about the textile, its display, and the architectural settings designed to enhance its veneration and boost the political agenda of the ruling family.

This study investigates an almost unknown musical culture: that of cloistered nuns in one of the major cities of early modern Europe. These women were the most famous musicians of Milan, and the music composed for them opens up a hitherto unstudied musical repertory, which allows insight into the symbolic world of the city. Even more importantly, the music actually composed by four such nuns, Claudia Scossa, Claudia Rusca, Chiara Margarita Cozzollani, and Rosa Giacinta Badalla - reveals the musical expression of women's devotional life. The two centuries' worth of battles over nuns' singing of polyphony, studies here for the first time on the basis of massive archival documentation, also suggest that the implementation of reform in the major centre of post-Tridentine Catholic renewal was far more varied; incomplete, subject to local political pressure and individual interpretation, and short-lived than any religious historian has ever suggested. Other factors that marked nuns' musical lives and creative output - liturgical traditions of the religious orders, the problems of performance practice attendant upon all-female singing ensembles - are here addressed for the first time in the musicological literature.

"The story of Turin's transformation is well told. . . . Pollak's account of the financial machinations of the Dukes in their efforts to acquire properties, and to pay for fortifications by taxing betterment on enclosed land, is one of the best parts of the book."—Simon Pepper, Times Literary Supplement

Collana Archinauti diretta da Claudio D'Amato / Archinauti series edited by Claudio D'Amato La figura di Bernardo Antonio Vittone rappresenta una singolarità nel panorama dei protagonisti dell'architettura italiana, per il suo essere sospesa tra permanenze dello spirito barocco e nuove istanze della cultura illuminista. Di entrambe sono state ricercate le ricadute spaziali ed il modo attraverso cui queste sono state rese partecipi della forma architettonica, nel complesso dell'organismo edilizio e nel particolare delle sue parti costituenti: i complessi sistemi voltati; l'introduzione di elementi di transizione tra la forma dell'invaso e quella della cupola, con l'incessante lavoro sul tema del pennacchio, per offrire direzioni multiple ed inattese allo scorrere dello sguardo e della luce; la continuità degli elementi strutturali che, attraverso la messa in rappresentazione e la sublimazione della ineludibile necessità statica, traduce in forma fisica la rispondenza all'utile ed al funzionale. All'interno della vasta produzione architettonica di Vittone, si è eletto quale oggetto di analisi il tema della pianta centrale, un tipo dal valore altamente simbolico che ha attraversato verticalmente la storia dell'architettura occidentale, e del quale Vittone esplora tutte le possibilità, in una ricerca che si affina progressivamente e conferisce al tema spaziale nuovi e pregnanti significati, densi di riferimenti alla cultura del suo tempo. I ventuno progetti di chiese presi in esame, tutti raffigurati in uno dei due trattati scritti da Vittone, le Istruzioni Diverse, costituiscono un vero saggio sul tema e scandiscono la struttura del volume, in un percorso che isola le questioni progettuali, analizzandole in successione logica, tipo e spazio polare, leggibilità complessiva e gerarchizzazione tra le parti, interrelazione tra modello formale e modello strutturale, per tornare al tema del progetto e del processo ideativo dello spazio centrale ed estrapolarne i principi formali universalmente validi. Francesco Scricco (Barletta, 1976), laureato con lode presso la Facoltà di Architettura del Politecnico di Bari, ha conseguito nel 2011 il titolo di Dottore di Ricerca in Progettazione Architettonica. Dal 2012 svolge attività didattica presso il Dipartimento Dicar del Politecnico di Bari, dove insegna Progettazione Architettonica. La sua attività di ricerca scientifica è documentata da saggi pubblicati in numerosi proceedings di convegni internazionali.
