Description

Explore the complex history of fifteenth- and sixteenth-century Venice through the lens of the Paduan playwright Angelo Beolco, known as Ruzante. This scholarly work by Linda Carroll examines his life and work by placing them within the massive political, economic, social, and artistic shifts of the Venetian era. By studying patronage in a wide sense, this book provides a fresh look at how Venetian patricians engaged with the arts during this period of monumental change. The text uses vast amounts of new archival information to connect the life of Ruzante to the broader empire. Through a careful reading of previously unpublished primary sources, the author uncovers remarkable details about the era that were previously unknown. This is an essential resource for those studying Renaissance theatre, Venetian history, and the relationship between art and empire.
