NUOVO. Roma nel Rinascimento 2015 - Maury D. FELD, Printing and Humanism in Renaissance Italy. Essay on the Revival of the Pagan Gods Edited with an Introduction by C.M. PYLE. Foreword by M. ZORZI This book presents a highly interdisciplinary Renaissance story, the intellectual history of the introduction of printing into Italy, 1464-1473, under the auspices of Nicholas of Cusa, Cardinal Bessarion, and the Mainz printers Sweynheym and Pannartz, printing first at Subiaco, then in Rome. It is a tale of 15th century syncretism in the context of Roman humanism: the politically astute sequencing of Pagan and Church texts in an elaborately planned printing program, edited and with prefaces by Giovanni Andrea Bussi, and later edited by Niccolò Perotti.
