Funded Activity Summary

The Anatomy and Physiology of Renaissance Florence: the Dynamics of Social Change in the Fifteenth Century. In 2004, Australia's reputation as an international leader in Italian Renaissance history contributed directly to an agreement with Italy's Cassamarca Foundation bringing $22.5 million AUD to Australian universities. This has funded a dozen Italian-studies lectureships, numerous fellowships and scholarships in Australian universities, raising Italian culture's profile in academia, the student body and the wider community. This new project on Florentine society will advance the field of Renaissance social history, reinforce Australia's outstanding reputation in the area, promote international agreements like that with the Fondazione Cassamarca, and confer further major academic, cultural and economic benefits on Australian national culture.
