Authority / Notes
1683
According to Cavazzuti (1958), p.3, as early as 1607 a request was made by Ercole Fontana to the local authorities that an academy be set up in Modena. This did not come about immediately.

On pp.5-7, Cavazzuti (1958) argues for accepting 1683 as the founding date rather than an approximate date of sometime around 1680 given by Girolamo Tiraboschi.

Cavazzuti (1958), p.8, adds that in the years when their first president, Bonifacio Rangoni, was in office, they chose the name Accademia dei Dissonanti. The section heading on p.3 of Cavazzuti (1958) suggests that the Academy had this name from 1683 to 1816.

With its new statutes in 1817, the Academy dispensed with its old name and became the Reale Accademia Modenese di Scienze Lettere ed Arti, the Royal designation referring to their patron Duca Francesco IV, according to Cavazzuti (1958), pp.27-28. This is, in fact, the name that appears on the statutes of 1817 (Cavazzuti (1958), p.81). But on the statutes of 1826 and 1841, the name is given as Reale Accademia di Scienze, Lettere ed Arti di Modena (Cavazzuti (1958), p.81).

With its statutes of 1860, the Academy's character changed from a regional one to a national one (Cavazzuti (1958), p.34. Its name is given in the latter statutes as Regia Accademia di Scienze, Lettere ed Arti in Modena (Cavazzuti (1958), p.81).
