Description
Explores the role of Tuscan culture in the poetic construction of a commonwealth. This book focuses on four works: Brunetto Latini's didactic poem, the 'Tesoretto'; an illustrated manuscript of the same; and Simone Martini's 'Maesta' and Ambrogio Lorenzetti's 'Allegory of Good and Bad Government', both painted for the Palazzo Pubblico in Siena.
