Description

Providing a comprehensive account of one of the most formative historical periods, this book uniquely describes Renaissance architecture as the physical manifestation of economic, social and political change. Shifts in architectural style and design are described in parallel with Italys economic and demographic growth, external and internal conflict and the evolution of urban and regional government.

Urban Development in Renaissance Italy covers the full extent of the Renaissance period, charting the eras Medieval roots and its transformation into Mannerist and Baroque tendencies. The book fully covers northern, central and southern Italy, surpassing the conventional literature that tends to focus solely on northern Italy.
