Joseph Luzzi and his new guide, Botticelli’s Secret: The Misplaced Drawings and the Rediscovery of the Renaissance.

Botticelli’s Secret: The Misplaced Drawings and the Rediscovery of the Renaissance, a brand new guide by Joseph Luzzi, Asher B. Edelman Professor of Literature at Bard School, was reviewed in The Christian Century. The guide explores not solely how the Italian Renaissance got here to life, but in addition how Sandro Botticelli’s artwork helped convey it about and why we want the Renaissance and all that it stands for right now. “The key at stake here’s a set of drawings made by Sandro Botticelli for a Medici patron in late Fifteenth-century Florence—a fee meant as an instance all 100 cantos of Dante’s intensely Christian early 14th-century Commedia,” writes Peter S. Hawkins for The Christian Century. “What a Renaissance artist manufactured from a quintessentially medieval textual content brings Luzzi to ponder all that was entailed within the seismic cultural rebirth that happened in Florence 500 years in the past and has been reinterpreted many times throughout the reaches of the Western world.”
