Excerpt from Renaissance EuropeNo European people are more jealous or more resentful of their past than the Italians. Their history haunts them like a nightmare and is for ever asserting itself. On all sides they see reproachful reminders of the great achievements of their forbears. It is the penalty which these heirs to a rich civilization cannot escape. All they can do is to improve upon the past. The consequences are that from time to time they are spurred to frantic emulation, and a rebirth of intellectual, scientific or artistic effort is the result.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
