The city-states of fifteenth-century Italy exerted unprecedented
cultural influence on Europe and the Mediterranean and acted as a
bulwark against the imperial and bellicose designs of the empires
that surrounded them. Acclaimed French historian, Fernand Braudel,
brings to life the two extraordinary centuries that span the
Renaissance, Mannerism, and Baroque and grippingly portrays the
complex interaction between art, science, politics and commerce
during Italy's extraordinary cultural flowering. Considered one of
the great modern historians, Fernand Braudel was a leader of the
Annales School. His many books include The Mediterranean, and A
History of Civilizations.
