Angelo Participazio
Agnello Participazio (Latin: Agnellus Particiacus) was the tenth traditional and eighth (historical) doge of the Duchy of Venetia from 811 to 827. He was born to a rich merchant family from Heraclea and was one of the earliest settlers in the Rivoalto group of islands. His family had provided a number of '' tribuni militum'' of Rivoalto. He owned property near the Church of Santi Apostoli. A building in the nearby Campiello del Cason was the residence of the tribunes. Agnello was married to the dogaressa Elena. The name Agnello appeared in the earliest documents (819 and 820) and in John the Deacon's chronicle Historia Veneticorum. It appeared as Angelo in a document datable to 1023. The surname is attested only later, in John the Deacon's chronicle, who attributed it only to Orso II Participazio (911-932). Its attribution to the whole household and to the prior Participazio doges (Agnello Giustiniano (827–829), Giovanni I (829–836), Orso I (864–881) and Giovanni II ( ...

Orso Ipato
Orso Ipato (Latin: ''Ursus Hypatus''; died 737) was the third traditional Doge of Venice (726–737) and the first historically known. During his eleven-year reign, he brought great change to the Venetian navy, aided in the recapture of Ravenna from Lombard invaders, and cultivated harmonious relations with the Byzantine Empire. He was murdered in 737 during a civil conflict. History Perhaps a native of Eraclea, Orso was elected Doge in 726 following the death of Marcello Tegalliano. The Venetian people had elected him against the will of the Byzantine Empire, a consequence of the Byzantines' unwelcome attempts to institute iconoclasm in the West. Virtually nothing is known of his life before his accession, though it is reasonable to assume that he was born in the latter part of the seventh century. Described by one historian as being a 'warlike man',Knight, p. 234 his reign saw much innovation in the way of martial and naval matters. He focused especially on strengthening th ...

Marcello Tegalliano
Marcello Tegalliano (Latin: ''Marcellus Tegalianus''; died 726) was, according to tradition, the second Doge of Venice (717–726). He is described as having hailed from Eraclea, and during his nine-year reign was apparently in great disagreement with the nearby Longobards. He died in 726 and was succeeded by Orso Ipato. History The only certain historical mention of Marcello (the surname Tegalliano is a late-fourteenth-century invention of the chroniclers Nicolò Trevisan and Enrico Dandolo) is the '' Pactum Lotharii'' stipulated in 840 between the emperor Lothair I and the doge Pietro Tradonico. The text mentions the so-called ''terminatio liutprandina'', an agreement on the delimitation of the borders around Cittanova concluded under the king of the Lombards Liutprand between Duke Paoluccio and the ''magister militum'' Marcello and still in force at the time of the Holy Roman Empire. The Pactum was repeatedly confirmed in the following centuries and was therefore ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Doge Of Venice
The Doge of Venice ( ; vec, Doxe de Venexia ; it, Doge di Venezia ; all derived from Latin ', "military leader"), sometimes translated as Duke (compare the Italian '), was the chief magistrate and leader of the Republic of Venice between 726 and 1797. Doges of Venice were elected for life by the Venetian nobility. The '' doge'' was neither a duke in the modern sense, nor the equivalent of a hereditary duke. The title "doge" was the title of the senior-most elected official of Venice and Genoa; both cities were republics and elected doges. A doge was referred to variously by the titles "My Lord the Doge" ('), "Most Serene Prince" ('), and " His Serenity" ('). History of the title Byzantine era The office of doge goes back to 697. The first historical Venetian doge, Ursus, led a revolt against the Byzantine Empire in 726, but was soon recognised as the () and (a honorific title derived from the Greek word for consul) of Venice by imperial authorities. After Ursus, the Byza ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Paolo Lucio Anafesto
Paolo Lucio Anafesto ( la, Paulucius Anafestus) was, according to tradition, the first Doge of Venice, serving from 697 to 717. He is known for repelling Umayyad attacks. Biography A noble of Eraclea, then the primary city of the region, he was elected in 697 as an official over the entire lagoon that surrounded Venice. His job was to both put an end to the conflicts between the various tribunes who until then had governed the differing parts and to coordinate the defense against the Lombards and the Slavs who were encroaching on their settlements. However, Anafesto's existence is uncorroborated by any source before the 11th century. He also repelled Umayyad attacks and raids onto his kingdom. History According to John Julius Norwich, Paolo Lucio Anafesto was actually Exarch Paul. Moreover, Paul's ''magister militum'' had the same first name as Paoluccio's reputed successor, Marcellus Tegallianus, casting doubt on the authenticity of that doge as well.Norwich, p.13 Notes ...

Autostrada A4 (Italy)
The Autostrada A4, or Serenissima, is a motorway which connects Turin and Trieste via Milan and Venice. The city of Venice (or rather, Mestre which is the "land" part of Venice) originally formed a bottleneck on the A4, but is now bypassed by the Passante di Mestre (the old route through Mestre was renumbered A57). The A4 passes just north of the city of Milan, where it is toll-free. Due to the different companies that manage the different parts of the motorway, it is often referred to as formed by five sections: Turin-Milan, Milan-Brescia, Brescia-Padua, Padua-Venice and Venice-Trieste. As it runs through the whole Pianura Padana, which is a densely populated and highly industrialized area, A4 is one of the most trafficked motorways of Italy. A4 is a dual-carriageway, six-lane motorway for most of its length. The stretch between Milano Est tollgate and Bergamo has been an eight-lane motorway since 30 September 2007. The stretch from Venice to Trieste is instead still a four-lan ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Treviso Airport
Treviso Airport, it, Aeroporto di Treviso A. Canova , sometimes Venice-Treviso Airport, is an international airport located west-southwest of Treviso and approximately away from the city of Venice, Italy. It is used mainly by low-cost airlines. Some airlines refer to the airport unofficially as ''"Venice-Treviso"'' or similar. The primary airport serving Venice is Venice Marco Polo Airport. The airport has created several disputes of the inhabitants of the urban centers of Quinto di Treviso and Treviso given by low -altitude flights, as well as the proximity to the protected area of the Regional Natural Park of the Sile River. Hence the birth of several committees against the airport and questions from civil organizations, including Legaambiente. Overview The airport stands 18 meters above sea level. The runway direction is 07/25 with an asphalt surface long and wide. The new terminal was opened in 2007. It was named after Antonio Canova, a famous Italian sculptor. In Dec ...
