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.
