Summary

This volume presents a compelling account of the prevalence of murder and violence during the Italian Renaissance. Contrary to the usual narratives of harmony and creation, Stephen Bowd outlines how massacres happened, how people justified and explained such events, and how they were culturally represented during the European renaissance.--, Provided by publisher
