One of the most useful books dealing with Italian social history! This unique volume offers readers a glimpse into the private lives of two Florentine businessmen during the late fourteenth century. A translated, abridged version of the personal chronicles of Buonaccorso Pitti and Gregorio Dati forms the body of this collection; the editors useful introduction (Florentine Diaries and Diarists) and footnotes provide relevant background information and textual explanations. These two men, whose lifetimes spanned nearly identical periods, were witnesses to one of the most creative half-centuries in Florentine history. As representatives of Florences governing class, their memoirs (a common literary form in Renaissance Florence) provide important insights into characteristic features of Florentine business activity and political experience.

"A. Richard Turner explores the art of Florence in the context of the city's own brilliant personality: Florence as a place whose unique political, social, and physical presence made its art different from any other. Moving chronologically and thematically, he surveys the city's history, its ceremonies, its powerful patrons (the bankers, the guilds, the church), its tensions and rivalries, its Roman heritage, and above all its superb sense of self." "The Florentines saw art as more than mere decoration: it was knit into the very fabric of their daily life. Streets and piazzas, painting and sculptures, churches and palaces reflected both a world view and a civic identity. Here we meet the illustrious Lorenzo de Medici, the charismatic religious reformer Savonarola, the courtly poet Poliziano, the mathematician and theorist Alberti. Here we see art in its full cultural context, both high and humble: paintings in the rooms people lived in; altarpieces described in relation to the ceremonies for which they were used; Florence as both setting for art and art object in itself. Adeptly interweaving the close study of individual art works and broader cultural themes, Turner paints a vivid portrait of a remarkable place and time."--BOOK JACKET.

Professor Brucker contends that changes in the social order provide the key to understanding the transition of Florence from a medieval to a Renaissance city. In this book he shows how Florentine politics were transformed from corporate to elitist. He bases his work on a thorough examination of archival material, providing a full socio-political history that extends our knowledge of the Renaissance city-state and its development. The author describes the restructuring of the political system, showing first how the corporate entities that comprised the traditional social order had lost cohesiveness after the Black Death. He traces the process of readjustment that began during the guild regime of 1378-1382, and analyzes the impact of foreign affairs. During the crisis years of the Visconti wars the distinctive features emerged of an elitist regime whose vitality was demonstrated following the death of Giangaleazzo Visconti and whose membership and style the author discusses in detail. Originally published in 1977.
