Reviews

'... an extremely learned and well-informed account of high culture in Florence under Cosimo I. It is to be hoped that her findings and deep erudition will generate further research, extending the chronological analysis both before and after the reign of the first Medicean grand duke.' Robert D. Black, Journal of Modern History
