Paperback. Condition: Fair. The city of Florence has long been admired as the home of the brilliant artistic and literary achievement of the early Renaissance. But most histories of Florence go no further than the first decades of the sixteenth century. They thus give the impression that Florentine culture died suddenly along with the generation of Leonardo, Machiavelli, and Andrea del Sarto.

When their political philosophy and historiography ran dry, they turned to the practical problems of civil administration. When their artists finally yielded to outside influence, they turned to music and the natural sciences. Even during the darkest days of the great economic depression of the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, they succeeded in preserving-almost alone in Europe - the blessings of external peace and domestic tranquility.…
