Italian Art, Society, and Politics: A Festschrift in Honor of Rab Hatfield
Presented by his Students on the Occasion of his Seventieth Birthday

Edited by Barbara Deimling and Jonathan K. Nelson

The fifteen essays on Italian art, society, and politics offer new perspectives on a wide range of subjects in Italian art history, architecture, history, and urban studies. Topics range from eleventh-century urbanism in Florence and northern influences on Lombard painting to the re-writing of history in the nascent Italian State. All authors are alumni of Syracuse University’s Florence Graduate Program in Renaissance Art. The volume is dedicated to Professor Rab Hatfield as a Festschrift on the occasion of his seventieth birthday. A renowned teacher and scholar in Italian Renaissance studies, Rab Hatfield has taught at Syracuse University in Florence since 1971.
