This volume is a survey of society in Italy from the 15th to the
18th centuries - from the Renaissance to the Enlightenment. During
this period Italy was not a coherent political unit, being divided
into many different kinds of states. Particularly apparent was the
deep North-South divide economically, socially and linguistically.
This book aims to develop an understanding of the diversity,
conflicts and incompatibilities from the past that still affect the
stability and fragility of united Italy in the 21st century. It
covers the whole of the Italian peninsula from the Venetian
Republic, Milan, Florence and the Kingdom of Naples to the rural
Italy of Calabria and Campagna. Many themes are examined including:
the effect of geography and population on society; the relationship
between urban and rural Italy; land systems, agriculture and rural
communities; urban society from professionals and artisans to
peddlers and prostitutes; the family and household and the church
and religious life.
