- "The Orsini, whose prominence in Italian
history dates back to the twelfth century, boast three popes,
twenty-eight cardinals, and marriages into several ruling houses
of Europe. This international conference celebrates the conclusion
of a two-year project to catalog the Orsini Family Papers in
UCLA's Charles E. Young Research Library Department of Special
Collections. The Orsini collection at UCLA constitutes a
significant portion of the family’s private archive, with
documents dating from ca. 1300 to 1950.
-
- The conference will bring together current
scholarship on the the Orsini family and encourage the use of this
exceptionally rich store of primary material. The sessions will
focus on the family and its milieu in the early modern period,
addressing such questions as the research potential of baronial
archives, the family's political strategies, their artistic
patronage, and the role of Orsini women.
-
- It is hoped that this constellation of
perspectives will yield a portrait of the family, in context, as a
formidable political, economic and social entity, and also as a
human one.
-
- The UCLA Library gratefully acknowledges
the support of the Steinmetz Family Foundation, whose generous
funding of the two-year project to catalog the Orsini Family
Papers at UCLA has made this conference and exhibit possible. "
