ISBN10: 0801880556, ISBN13: 9780801880551, [publisher: Johns Hopkins University Press] Softcover nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The Italian university has been credited with the rebirth of humanism and thus the flourishing of the Renaissance as we have come to understand it. Scholars of Italian humanism acknowledge the importance of the legal curriculum at universities in Pisa and Bologna for the rediscovery and renewed appreciation of classical texts. Few, however, have examined what life or the curriculum were like at Italian universities in general, in both major and minor city-states. This study, covering the period from 1400-1600, offers historians in the field not only an overview but also detailed information on the life of these Renaissance universities.According to the author, this book addresses Italian universities of the Renaissance in two complementary ways.

The impact of scholars in their disciplines in many cases depended on the structural changes their university was willing to make to accommodate new lines of inquiry.The book studies all sixteen of the leading Italian universities. Part I charts the rise and flourishing of Italian universities ...
