Originally published in 1954, this book is an anthology of 260
Italian letters written between 1459 and 1600 by some of the most
prominent figures of the Renaissance, including Michelangelo,
Cellini and Machiavelli. Butler divides the letters according to
subject matter - news, family matters, reproach, and others - and
charts the development of letter writing as a literary form, which
flourished in Italy long before anywhere else. This book will be of
value to anyone with an interest in the Renaissance or Italian
history.
