Water in Early Modern Tuscany, 1500-1750

9-10 June 2017 — Palazzo Alberti — Florence

Organizers: Alessio Assonitis (The Medici Archive Project) & John Henderson (Birkbeck, University of London, & Monash University)

The aim of this conference is to examine the history of water in early modern Tuscany from as many perspectives as possible, by adopting a multi-disciplinary approach. This topic emerges out of discussions and collaboration between the Medici Archive Project, in particular the research program “Medici and Medicine”, and the new research project ‘Body and the City’ based in the Centre for Medieval and Renaissance Studies in the Faculty of Arts at Monash University (Melbourne and Prato).
