Hard Cover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Dust jacket complete, unclipped. Original cloth boards with bright gilt titling on spine. No ownership marks. Frontis plates. 247 pages clean and tight. This volume provides an analysis of the patronage of culture by the merchant class, by the episcopate, and by professional groups such as the civil lawyers, in fourteenth- and fifteenth-century England. Culture itself is deemed to be those civilizing influences that comprise the visual arts, literature, education, and religion. Each group is defined and detailed information is provided for individuals within it to serve as illustrative examples. As well as illuminating a group's particular contribution to culture, a new light is thrown on the professions themselves and on religious vocation in the period. Size: 8vo.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Immediate dispatch from Somerset. Nice older book in good condition. Pages in great condition. Nice tan to page edges. Some dustmarking on top. No notes or highlighting. See images. Fantastic book. About the book >.>.> The main concern of this book is the role of reason in the Decameron as a civilising force that guides and controls the satisfaction of natural instinct. To underline the significance of this theme the author sets it in the context of critical opinion on the historical position of the Decameron and the question of the morality of the work, assesses the extent of Boccaccio's under- standing of human nature and his appraisal of human society, and examines the main characteristics of the resulting sense of moral values. Within this framework he provides a definition of the place and function of reason in the Decameron, and an interpretation of the distinctive notion of virtue that arises from it.
