Venetian music print culture of the mid-sixteenth century is presented here through a study of the Scotto press, one of the foremost dynastic music publishers of the Renaissance. For over a century, the house of Scotto played a pivotal role in the international book trade, publishing in a variety of fields including philosophy, medicine, religion, and music. This book examines the mercantile activities of the firm through both a historical study, which illuminates the wide world of the Venetian music printing industry, and a catalog, which details the music editions brought out by the firm during its most productive period. A valuable reference work, this book not only enhances our understanding of the socioeconomic and cultural history of Renaissance Venice, it also helps to preserve our knowledge of a vast musical repertory.
What is Internationalization In the field of economics, internationalization, sometimes known as internationalization, refers to the process of extending the engagement of businesses in foreign markets. However, there is no universally accepted definition of internationalization. Internationalization is a crucial strategy not only for businesses that are looking to achieve horizontal integration on a global scale, but also for nations that are concerned with the long-term viability of their development in a variety of manufacturing and service sectors, particularly in the field of higher education. This is a very important context that requires internationalization in order to bridge the gap...
This volume discusses the commerce of music and its connection to the printing and publishing industry in mid-sixteenth century Venice. Music printers occupied a unique niche in the Renaissance printing world because their product appealed to those with sophisticated taste and was not readable by the entire literate public. Bridging the gap between music and other disciplines, Bernstein demonstrates here that the role of a music printer can be discussed as part of the larger cultural and economic question of the success of a commercial enterprise.
The papacy has often resembled a secular European monarchy more than a divinely inspired institution. Roman pontiffs bestowed great wealth on their families and forged strategic alliances with other powerful families to increase their power. Pope Alexander VI (Rodrigo Borgia), for example, forced his daughter Lucrezia into a series of marriages for political reasons. When her marital alliance was no longer advantageous, as was the case in her second marriage, her husband was brutally murdered. Many papal families also intermarried in hopes of forming a hereditary papacy; at least two members of the Fieschi, Piccolomini, Della Rovere, and Medici families served as pope. Papal families since the early history of the church are fully covered in this comprehensive work. Genealogical charts graphically show the descendants of the popes, presenting in many cases the interrelationships between the papal families and their relationships with many of the leading families of Europe. Detailed histories examine the impact of the papacy on each pope's family and how each influenced the history of the church.
What is Economies of Agglomeration One of the major subfields of urban economics, economies of agglomeration, explains, in broad terms, how urban agglomeration occurs in locations where cost savings can naturally arise. This term is most often discussed in terms of economic firm productivity. However, agglomeration effects also explain some social phenomena, such as large proportions of the population being clustered in cities and major urban centers. Similar to economies of scale, the costs and benefits of agglomerating increase the larger the agglomerated urban cluster becomes. Several prominent examples of where agglomeration has brought together firms of a specific industry are: Silicon ...

Qu'est-ce que l'internationalisation Dans le domaine de l'économie, l'internationalisation, parfois appelée internationalisation, fait référence au processus d'extension de l'engagement des entreprises sur les marchés étrangers. Cependant, il n’existe pas de définition universellement acceptée de l’internationalisation. L'internationalisation est une stratégie cruciale non seulement pour les entreprises qui cherchent à réaliser une intégration horizontale à l'échelle mondiale, mais également pour les nations soucieuses de la viabilité à long terme de leur développement dans divers secteurs manufacturiers et de services, en particulier dans le domaine de l’enseignement...
