The Cathedral School of Santa Maria del Fiore (Collegio Eugeniano) in Florence during the Fifteenth Century
P. 291-336
- The rise of secular school education in Tuscany during the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries led to the closure of Florence's cathedral school. Pope Eugenius IV sought to remedy the shortage of boy choristers by refounding a non-resident school there to teach Latin and singing in 1436. Latin instruction was the first priority, although boys were introduced to avant-garde polyphony especially later in the fifteenth century. Paedophilia on the part of teachers could be a problem. As in secular grammar schools, classical Latin texts represented the culmination of the syllabus, although one teacher tried to introduce a series of Christian dramas that he himself composed, but the experiment was unsuccessful.
