Description:
Yale University Press, 1993. New in dust jacket. "The Vatican Library contains the richest collection of western manuscripts and early printed books in the world, and its holdings have both reflected and helped to shape the intellectual development of Europe. One of the central institutions of Italian Renaissance culture, it has served since its origin in the mid-15th century as a centre of research for topics as diverse as the early history of the city of Rome and the structure of the universe. This book, which contains over 200 colour illustrations, introduces the reader to the Vatican Library and examines in particular its development during the Renaissance. Distinguished scholars discuss the Library's holdings and the historical circumstances of its growth, presenting a fascinating cast of characters - popes, artists, collectors, scholars, and scientists - who influenced how the Library evolved. The authors examine subjects ranging from Renaissance humanism to Church relations with China…

Description:
Yale University Press, 1993 4to (31 cm), XXVI, 325 pp. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket (small tear top of dj, blind collector's stamp on front free end-paper). Anthony Grafton invites us to examine Renaissance Rome as a whole, and in particular, to view its literature in light of the city's institutions. In a series of fascinating episodes, he takes us into the Vatican Library and other collections of the city, focusing on the ever-growing Renaissance dialogue between the Christian and pagan worlds, and exploring the connections between the literary life of the city and the spiritual and political upheavals of the time. Along the way, he sheds new light on such figures as Gregory the Great, Cicero, and the Medici family, and many more. With the author's trademark erudition and wit, Rome Reborn offers a breathtaking tour of Renaissance Rome and its literary culture, vividly depicting the city in all its facets--political, religious, social, and cultural--and showing us the ways in…
