The "Accademia Pontaniana": A Model of a Humanist Network
Shulamit Furstenberg-Levi
'The 'Accademia Pontaniana': A Model of a Humanist Network' is an exploration of the vast intellectual networks which developed around the fifteenth century humanist Pontano. It includes the densely knit network which emerged in Naples, the 'Accademia Pontaniana', as well as the loosely knit networks which developed between the members of this academy and other humanists and academies outside of Naples. Shulamit Furstenberg-Levi points to the links between the 'Accademia Pontaniana' and other sodalities in Southern Italy, and to the lineage between fifteenth century informal academies and sixteenth century institutional Academies. In this study recent sociological theory is applied to understand Renaissance academies and the vertical and horizontal links between them.
