Charles Stinger probes the basic attitudes, underlying values, and core convictions that animated Rome's intellectuals and artists from the time of Pope Eugenius IV's return to the Eternal City in 1443 to the sacking in 1527. This is a fascinating cultural history and essential reading for all students of the Italian Renaissance. In a new Preface to this paperback reissue, Stinger identifies significant new works that have appeared since the book was first published.
