In this landmark study of Italy from the fourteenth through the early sixteenth century, Burckhardt chronicles the rise of Florence and Venice as powerful city-states, the breakup of the medieval worldview that came with the rediscovery of Greek and Roman culture, and the new emphasis on the role of the individual. All these, Burckhardt explains, went hand in hand with the explorations of science and contributed to the more naturalistic depiction of the world in art and literature. His book-length essay includes discussions of all aspects of Italian civilization: the art, fashion, literature, and music of the time, as well as the flourishing intellectual and spiritual life. 650 0 $a Renaissance $z Italy. 651 0 $a Italy $x Civilization $y 1268-1559. 700 1 $a Howard, Geoffrey, $d 1936- $4 nrt. 730 0 $a Kultur der Renaissance in Italien. $l English. 941 $a 1 945 $a cdab 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20130803010257.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0BD27DE4FC0211E29E97ABD5DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
