This book gathers cutting-edge articles by prominent scholars reflecting on Petrarch’s poetry and his long legacy, from the Renaissance to the present day. The scholars engaged in this volume read Petrarch in the context of his own world and with a variety of theoretical and critical approaches, never overlooking the opportunity for an interdisciplinary reading that combines poetry and visual arts. The volume includes scholars from the United States and Europe (Italy, in particular), thus offering the opportunity to compare different theoretical approaches. The articles in the second half of the volume celebrate Petrarch’s legacies beyond the historically fundamental Renaissance Petrarchism, while exploring the presence of Petrarch’s poetry in several cultural realities. The scholars also read Petrarch with necessary attention to new disciplines such as digital humanities. The richness of the volume lies in these innovative perusals of Petrarch’s works not only through the critical lens of dedicated scholars, but also through their readings of artists who throughout the centuries appreciated and revived Petrarch’s poetry in their own literary endeavors

Focusing on literary and non-literary works alike, Interpretation and Visual Poetics in Medieval and Early Modern Texts places visual and material aspects of literary study at the center of the interpretive process. The essays in this collection explore new and traditional areas of research from hermeneutics, to codicology and history of the book, to cultures of sound and the digital humanities. They address the texts themselves, as well as their early manuscripts and subsequent printed and digital editions. The contributors collectively cover a time span of over 1000 years, and begin with the Mediterranean, focusing on texts produced in Italy and the Languedoc regions, then radiate outward to analyse the texts' material containers (manuscripts, print, and digital editions) that are now housed worldwide. Contributors are: Michelangelo Zaccarello, Daniel O'Sullivan, Valerio Cappozzo, Jelena Todorović, Christopher Kleinhenz, Mirko Tavoni, Isabella Magni, Francesco Marco Aresu, Dario Del Puppo, Beatrice Arduini, Giovanni Spani, Furio Brugnolo, Teodolinda Barolini, Alessandro Vettori, Marcello Ciccuto, Marco Veglia, Michael Papio, and Anthony Nussmeier.

Major aims of this thesis are the study of the influence of sodium chloride induced pore clogging on the moisture properties of brick and the study of the extent to which pore clogging can be induced by means of sodium chloride. This study consists two main steps: sample preparation and measuring moisture properties. Sample preparation comprises leaching, followed by sodium chloride induced pore clogging by means of freeze drying. Freeze drying is used in order to achieve a uniform salt distribution inside the samples. Three types of samples are prepared: samples that underwent 1, 3 and 5 salt inducing cycles. Once these samples are prepared, the moisture transfer properties will be measured. The tests that will be performed throughout this thesis to measure the moisture properties are the following: the capillary uptake test, the X-ray projection method, the vacuum saturation test and mercury intrusion porosimetry. The results of these tests will be analysed and a comparison will be made between the results of the different tests. Furthermore the results will be compared to the moisture properties found in the experimental study of gypsum pore clogging conducted by PhD student J. Todorovic.
