Examining the cultural history of Renaissance Naples with an
emphasis on humanism, the author also evaluates Naples in the
broader context of fifteenth-century Italy and Renaissance Europe
in general. He addresses several prominent themes of Renaissance
history: patron- client relationships, the development of a
realistic, Machiavellian approach to matters of statecraft and
diplomacy, and the influence of Neapolitan humanists on European
culture in general. Originally published in 1987. The Princeton
Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again
make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished
backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the
original texts of these important books while presenting them in
durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton
Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly
heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton
University Press since its founding in 1905.
