Topic: Michele Steno


  
  Faliero - LoveToKnow 1911
The doge's complicity having been discovered, he was himself arrested; at the trial he confessed everything and was condemned and executed on the 17th of April 1355.
The story of the insult written by Michele Steno on the doge's chair is a legend of which no record is found in any contemporary authority.
The motives of Faliero are not altogether clear, as his past record, even in the judgment of the poet Petrarch, showed him as a wise, clear-headed man of no unusual ambition.

 Venice - LoveToKnow Watches
It was not till the city became more populous and when stone-stepped bridges were introduced that the use of horses died out.
As late as 1365 the Doge Lorenzo Celsi owned a famous stud of chargers, and in 14 9 0 the Doge Michele Steno's stables, where the present Zecca stands, were famous throughout Italy.
In 1392 a law put an end to riding in the Merceria, on account of the crowd, and all horses and mules were obliged to carry bells to warn foot-passengers.

It’s a gracefully written account of Nicolaus Steno, a Danish anatomist whose dissection of a shark led him to prove that “stones” found far from the ocean were fossilized sharks’ teeth—in turn leading to an evolutionary concept of the earth.
There’s the story of Steno’s discovery of the duct that supplies saliva to the mouth and the guy who was his host taking credit for it.

 Agriturismo - Zone 6. Est Veronese
Going further to the south, close to the border with the Vicenza province, you find Cologna Veneta, a small town that used to belong to the Republic of Venice and still preserves some evidence of this domination.
On April 16th 1406, under the Doge Michele Steno and following the resolution of the “Gran Consiglio della Serenissima”, Cologna and its territory became part of the “Dogado” and incorporated to the Sestier di Dorsoduro.
Cologna experienced a deserved peaceful period under the rule of Venice and became a flourishing agricultural centre.

 Piazza Di S. Marco
From that time onward it was continually under repair—not apparently from any weakness in the foundation, but rather from some fault in the brick used.
In the year 1329 we read that the Campanile was "renewed at the hands of an architect called Il Mantagnana." In 1400 it was burnt during the festa of Doge Michele Steno, and in 1417 it was struck by lightning and the upper part, which was of wood, was totally destroyed.
It was rebuilt of stone, but was struck again in 1490, and restored in 1515, when the golden angel was placed on its summit to guard it.

Venice has the strongest economy and most stable state in Italy.
The Dieci, a committee of ten, elects the Doge for life and since the suppression of Marin Falier's conspiracy in 1354, men such as Michele Steno [1400/13], Tomavaso Mozenigo [1414/23] and Francesco Foscari [1423/57] provided strong, princely government.
Under their leadership, Venice has followed a policy of expansion in the Adriatic and Aegean, taking Padua, Vicenza and Verona in 1405 and meeting Visconti aggression with a Florentine alliance in 1425, since when Florence has expanded inland.

 Liber unUsualis
Most likely this song was composed sometime during Francesco II il Novello Carrara’s rule of Padua, between 1390 and his capture and execution by the Venetians.
When Venice, under Doge Michele Steno, conquered the Padua in 1405 and arrested Francesco Novello on grounds of treason, Ciconia simply composed another motet, Venecie, mundi splendor — Michael, qui Stena domus, praising the noble city of Venice, the doge, and all Italy.
Meanwhile, Ciconia composed Con lagreme bagnandome with a text attributed to the Venitian poet, Leonardo Giustiniani (c.1383-1446), in private honor of the death of Francesco Novello.

In the choir are the tombs of Doge Michele Morosini (1382), a fine Gothic work with mosaic in the lunette; of Doge Leonardo Loredan (1521) of Doge Andrea Vendramin (1478), one of the loveliest of all Venetian monuments spoiled by Lorenzo Bregno ; and of Doge Marco Corner (1368), another fine Gothic work.
