Leon Battista Alberti (1404-1472) was the most versatile humanist
of the fifteenth century: author of numerous compositions in both
Latin and Italian, and a groundbreaking theorist of painting,
sculpture, and architecture. His Latin writings owe much to the
model of Petrarch (1304-1374), the famed poet of the Italian
Canzoniere, but also a prolific author of Latin epistles,
biographies, and poems that sparked the revival of classical
culture in the early Italian Renaissance. The essays collected here
reflect some thirty years of research into these pioneers of
Humanism, and offer important insights into forms of Renaissance
'self-fashioning' such as allegory and autobiography.
