The academization of art

[摘要] This dissertation offers a comprehensive interpretation of the first official art academies in Europe, the Florentine Accademia,del Disegno (1563) and the Roman Accademia di San Luca (1593). By conceiving these academies as crossing points of patronage,,literary-theoretical, guild, educational, and religious-confraternal practices this study presents a multifaceted and integral,understanding of these institutions. As such it rejects previous interpretations, in which these academies are reduced to,one of their activities (e.g. patronage).
