Item description from seller

Hardback. Ticks in margin in pencil to a couple of pages. Couple of tiny tears to edge of D/J. Price clipped to D/J. Volume One traces the decline of the communal paideia in its political, social, and cultural aspects. Through an intensive examination of the fiscal and juridical records of the period and the documents of contemporary literature, Dr. Becker demonstrates the relationship between the death of communal ideals and the centralization of political power, and between the emergence of a strong middle class and a respect for public law. He shows the patricians discovering a community of interest with the burghers,and the vendetta being replaced by courts of law. Finally, he traces the growing ability of the Florentice citizenry to cope with crisis through the newly strengthened organs of the replic. 263 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
