It analyses the relationship between Machiavelli, Piero and Francesco Soderini, and reinstates the crucial role played by Rome and contacts with Rome in late fifteenth-century and early sixteenth-century Florentine politics. Soderini's position as one of the chief powerbrokers of papal Rome, in opposition to the Medici, enables a reappraisal of political and ecclesiastical patronage and clientele systems. The cardinal also encouraged cultural, intellectual and building activities. Overall, through the book's collation of archival sources in and outside Italy, a new vision emerges of the lifestyle and activities of a learned and politically astute Italian cardinal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51941662720288,"sku":"NEW0521529352","price":80.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/church-and-politics-in-renaissance-italy-the-life-and-career-of-cardinal-francesco-soderini-1453-1524-cambridge-studies-in-italian-history-and-culture-0521529352","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
