Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The Renaissance Battle for Rome examines the rhetorical battle fought simultaneously between a wide variety of parties (individuals, groups, authorities) seeking prestige or legitimacy through the legacy of ancient RomeEDa battle over the question of whose claims to this legacy were most legitimate. Distinguishing four domainsEDpower, morality, cityscape and literatureEDin which ancient Rome represented a particularly powerful example, this book traces thecontours of this rhetorical battle across Renaissance Europe, based on a broad selection of Humanist Latin Poetry. It shows how humanist poets negotiated different claims on behalf of others and themselves intheir work, acting both as "spin doctors" and "new Romans", while also undermining competing claims to this same idealized past. By so doing this book not only offers a new understanding of several aspects of the Renaissance that are usually considered separately, but ultimately allows us to understand Renaissance culture as a constant negotiation between appropriating and contesting the idea and ideal of "Rome." The Renaissance Battle for Rome examines a rhetorical battle fought simultaneously between many parties seeking prestige or legitimacy through the legacy of ancient Rome. It traces the contours of this battle across Renaissance Europe, waged by humanist Latin poets negotiating different claims on behalf of others and themselves in their work.
