This volume examines the interrelationship between democratic legitimacy at the European level and the ongoing Eurozone crisis that began in 2010.
\nEurope's crisis of legitimacy stems from 'governing by rules and ruling by numbers' in the sovereign debt crisis, which played havoc with the eurozone economy while fueling political discontent. Using the lens of democratic theory, the book assesses the legitimacy of EU governing activities first in terms of their procedural quality ('throughput'), by charting EU actors' different pathways to legitimacy, and then evaluates their policy effectiveness ('output') and political responsiveness ('input'). In addition to an engaging and distinctive analysis of Eurozone crisis governance and its impact on democratic legitimacy, the book offers a number of theoretical insights into the broader question of the functioning of the EU and supranational governance more generally.
\nIt concludes with proposals for how to remedy the EU's problems of legitimacy, reinvigorate its national democracies, and rethink its future.

The sea was a linguistic contact zone where language boundaries were multiple, shifting, and eclectic. To this point, however, women have been marginal to this developing discourse. This lecture will attempt to redress this imbalance through an examination of some of the ways that women navigated and participated in the multilingual Mediterranean, and in particular the contexts and methods in which they acquired linguistic skills. Where men often experienced linguistic diversity in certain political, religious, military or economic contexts, women did so in a range of settings important in their own lives: homes, public baths, marital beds, nurseries, markets, workshops, slave emporia, convents, palaces, infirmaries, embassies, brothels, and networks of correspondence. The diverse spaces that women inhabited ultimately enabled rather than obstructed their multilingual discourse. They served as arenas in which women were exposed to and acquired linguistic varieties and multilingual communication skills, and in which women often educated each other in languages.

Successive generations of Salviati were residents at the villa between 1490 and 1794. Over the centuries, it housed great art and great people, from the infamous Medici to Pope Leo X and Garibaldi. It was plundered and burned during the Medici banishment and carefully renovated, generation after generation, to keep up with the fashions of house and garden.
\nAfter the Salviati era, the villa experienced a notable era as a political hub for supporters of the Risorgimento. However, from the mid-nineteenth century onwards, it changed hands many times. Apart from a brief spell during WWII when the building gave shelter to local Florentines and a great deal of valuable artwork, Villa Salviati was neglected and largely inaccessible to the public.
\nIn 2000, the Italian state purchased the villa to house the Historical Archives of the European Union (HAEU). Today the immaculately restored building and gardens are also home to the European University Institute’s Law and History Departments and the Academy of European Law.

This land was known as ‘Schifanoja’ or ‘Schivenoglia’, meaning a place where to get rid of ‘la noia’, or boredom. In fact, it is thought that Villa Palmieri (which still exists, and is just across the road from Villa Schifanoia) was the setting of some of 14th-century Decameron stories, by Italian author Giovanni Boccaccio: a place where young people sought refuge from a bubonic plague epidemic and kept themselves entertained.
\nThe original central structure of the villa dates from that period: built on two floors, with a large portico on the ground floor facing South and opening onto a large terrace. Two staircases connect the terrace to the beautiful gardens.
\nFrom the mid-15th century the villa was owned by the Cresci family, who made their fortune as merchants and dyers, before passing through Italian hands – bought, inherited or gifted as a dowry – for the following centuries.
\nUntil the eighteenth century the external structure remained unchanged except for the garden which was progressively transformed into a ‘giardino all’italiana’ based on symmetry, axial geometry and order.
\nWhen the Ciacchi family, a noble family linked to the papal Curia, took over the property of the villa in the second half of the eighteenth century, they clearly wanted to leave a mark: in 1847 they built a small chapel dedicated to Saint Thomas and indeed several architectural elements of both the chapel and the villa are emblazoned with their family emblem.
\nThe 20th century was marked by foreign ownership, including Australian, British and American. The character and atmosphere of Villa Schifanoia changed: from being the Summer residence on the hills of Florence for aristocratic local families to entering the cosmopolitan circle of the city’s Anglophone community, and becoming the main - although often only temporary - residence of its owners, a place where prosperity, culture and glamour would meet.
\nIn 1927, the Villa was bought by the wealthy American businessman Myron C. Taylor and his wife. Taylor was also an antique collector and passionate historian; he made the Villa’s gardens bigger and made sure it was well kept.
\nIn 1939 Taylor was nominated the personal representative of the US President to Pope Pio XII; Villa Schifanoia then became a place where personalities from the political and financial worlds would meet and where the American diplomat would hold.
\nIn 1941, Taylor donated the villa to the Catholic Church, who installed the Little Company of Mary as directors of a Rosary College, an artistic and cultural educational institute for young American girls. The school closed in the 1980s and In 1986 the Italian government bought the Villa to make it one of the European University Institute (EUI) seats. From August 2016 Villa Schifanoia is home to the Robert Schuman Center for Advanced Studies.
\nTo get to Villa Schifanoia from the bus stop in San Domenico, cross the road and take a sharp left into Via Boccaccio.
\nVilla Schifanoia is about 150 metres down the road on the right hand side after the traffic lights. The Cappella is the small building next to the Villa.
\nAs of 4 February 2019, following the implementation of a pilot project on Access Control at the EUI, the Villa Schifanoia Campus is accessible only with an EUI ID card or by ringing the entry phone and providing personal details to control room operators (upon prior registration).
\nFurther information on the project is available here.
