Hardcover. The broad geographical and topical range of these essays makes them a particularly suitable tribute to Michael Mallett, whose work covered the economic and military, political and diplomatic history of Florence, Rome, Venice and Italy in general. Thanks to the variety of topics treated in this collection, it should appeal greatly both to undergraduates and scholars in several disciplines with interests in the Renaissance and the early modern period. Most of these essays were delivered either at a conference held in Venice in Malletts memory in December 2009, or in the course of three sessions, also dedicated to him, Series: RENAISSANCE HISTORY ART AND CU.
