II,” in _Historische Zeitschrift_, CVIII, pp. 473–540 (1912). In
general see F. Novati, _Le origini_, in course of publication in
the _Storia letteraria d’Italia_ (Milan, since 1897).

The development of art in the south in this period is treated
by A. Venturi, _Storia dell’ arte italiana_ (Rome, 1901 _ff._),
II, ch. 3; III, ch. 2. See also C. Diehl, _L’art byzantin
dans l’Italie méridionale_ (Paris, 1894). For the continental
territories there is an excellent account in E. Bertaux, _L’art
dans l’Italie méridionale_ (Paris, 1904). There is nothing so good
for Sicily, although there are monographs on particular edifices.
Diehl, _Palerme et Syracuse_ (Paris, 1907), is a good sketch with
illustrations; Miss C. Waern, _Mediæval Sicily_ (London, 1910),
is more popular. Freeman has a readable essay on “The Normans at
Palermo,” in his _Historical Essays_, third series, pp. 437–76.
See also A. Springer, “Die mittelalterliche Kunst in Palermo,”
in his _Bilder aus der neueren Kunstgeschichte_ (Bonn, 1886), I,
pp. 157–208; and A. Goldschmidt, “Die normannischen Königspaläste
in Palermo,” in _Zeitschrift für Bauwesen_, XLVIII, coll. 541–90
(1898). Interesting aspects of twelfth-century Palermo are depicted
in the Bern codex of Peter of Eboli, reproduced by Siragusa for the
Istituto Storico Italiano (1905) and by Rota for the new edition
of Muratori (1904–10). Surviving portions of the royal costume are
reproduced by F. Bock, _Die Kleinodien des heil.-römischen Reiches_
(Vienna, 1864).
