Like every era, the Renaissance brims with stories. In this book,
Robert Davis and Beth Lindsmith highlight dozens of notable lives
from between 1400 and 1600. They bring to life wily politicians,
eccentric scientists, fiery rebels and stolid reactionaries, as
well as a pornographer, an acrobat, an actress, a poetic
prostitute, a star comedian and a least one very fretful mother.
Some names - Leonardo, Luther, Medici and Machiavelli - are famous,
but many others will be new to general readers. Their stories,
ninety-four in all, remind us that history is more than dates and
abstract concepts: it also arises from the lives of countless
individual men and women.
