In Power and Imagination,
a noted historian rethinks the evolution of the city-state in
Renaissance Italy and recasts the conventional distinction between
"society" and "culture." Martines traces the growth of commerce and the
evolution of governments; he describes the attitudes, pleasures, and
rituals of the ruling elite; and he seeks to understand the period's
towering works of the imagination in literature, painting, city
planning, and philosophy-not simply as the creations of individual
artists, but as the forman expression of the ambitions and egos of those
in power.
