Topic: Lorenzo il Magnifico


  
  Lorenzo de' Medici - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lorenzo di Piero de' Medici (Florence, January 1, 1449 – 9 April 1492) was an Italian statesman and ruler of the Florentine Republic during the Italian Renaissance.
Lorenzo was born into the leading family in Florence, owners of the international Medici bank with branches throughout Europe.
As Lorenzo died, the tower of the church of Santa Reparata was allegedly struck by lightning.

 Lorenzo il Magnifico   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Lorenzo was the head of the great city of Florence, but this was a completely unofficial title maintained by little more than the goodwill of the citizens of the city.
Lorenzo and his brother were nearly-constant companions, and, in addition to the festivals and affairs of state, they assembled the most notable literary men of their time around their villa on Fiesole (156).
Savonarola, after Lorenzo’s death, inspired the people of the city of Florence to sack the palaces of the rich and burn all the works of art and pieces of literature that were created or discovered since the new learning gripped the city.

Lorenzo I de' Medici, detto il Magnifico, signore di Firenze e poeta italiano (Firenze 1449 - Careggi, Firenze, 1492).
Lorenzo accusò la famiglia Pazzi di aver contribuito al finanziamento dell'impresa per conto del papa; cercò allora di cautelarsi entrando (1474) in una lega con Milano e Venezia in funzione antipapale.
Il 26 aprile di quell'anno, infatti, in Santa Maria del Fiore, durante la messa, i Pazzi, d'accordo con l'arcivescovo di Pisa Francesco Salviati e con i Riario, cercarono di eliminare Lorenzo e suo fratello Giuliano.

 Side Effects (of living and being me) :: Lorenzo, il Magnifico :: February :: 2006   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
The grand-son of Cosimo de Medici The Older (died 1464) and the elder son of Piero de Medici The Gouty (he was afflicted with the gout), Lorenzo de Medici was born on 1 January 1449 in Florence, Italy.
He was aptly called ‘Il Magnifico’ or ‘the Magnificent’ by his contemporaries, but this term was not, as is often thought, coined for him, but was in fact a general address for all important people not of aristocratic blood and therefore not eligible for the title ‘Excellency’.
Lorenzo’s immediate successor, Piero, not only had to contend with the growing political unrest, but he was also unfortunately not of the same caliber as his father.

Giuliano was stabbed to death during Mass at the cathedral, but Lorenzo escaped with a wound, and the plot collapsed.
Lorenzo retaliated against the Pazzi, and Sixtus excommunicated him and laid an interdict on Florence.
Lorenzo spent huge sums to purchase Greek and Latin manuscripts and to have them copied, and he urged the use of Italian in literature.

 Lorenzo de' Medici - Wikipedia
Giuliano fu colpito a morte dal sicario Bandini, mentre Lorenzo, ferito in modo lieve, si salvò riparandosi in sagrestia, aiutato da alcuni amici, tra cui il Poliziano.
Con il nuovo pontefice, Innocenzo VIII, i Medici si legarono ancora di più al papato, visto che Il Magnifico era convinto che l'alleanza tra Firenze, Napoli e lo Stato della Chiesa avrebbe tenuto gli stranieri lontani dal suolo italiano.
Lorenzo il Magnifico, sommo moderatore della politica italiana, seppe creare quell'equilibrio che fu apportatore di una pace fra gli Stati Italiani durata fino alla sua morte, avvenuta l'8 aprile 1492.

Lorenzo il Magnifico is a marvellously well-preserved Tuscan country house which has retained many original features — the rustic stonework, chestnut-beamed ceilings and cotta-tiled floors lending a ancient charm to the accommodation.
The rooms have been carefully and tastefully furnished with antique pieces to a standard which, if not quite that of a Medici Prince, is still pretty luxurious.
