Book Description
The recent exhibitions dedicated to Botticelli around the world show, more than ever, the significant and continued debate about the artist. Botticelli Past and Present engages with this debate. The book comprises four thematic parts, spanning four centuries of Botticelli’s artistic fame and reception from the fifteenth century. Each part comprises a number of essays and includes a short introduction which positions them within the wider scholarly literature on Botticelli. The parts are organised chronologically beginning with discussion of the artist and his working practice in his own time, moving onto the progressive rediscovery of his work from the late eighteenth to the turn of the twentieth century, through to his enduring impact on contemporary art and design. Expertly written by researchers and eminent art historians and richly illustrated throughout, the broad range of essays in this book make a valuable contribution to Botticelli studies.

Book Description
In 1810, while still at Eton, Percy Bysshe Shelley published Zastrozzi, the first of his two early Gothic prose romances. He published the second, St. Irvyne; or, The Rosicrucian, a year later. These sensationalist novels present some of Shelley’s earliest thoughts on irresponsible self-indulgence and violent revenge, and offer remarkable insight into an imagination that is strikingly modern. This new Broadview Literary Texts edition also brings together the fragmentary remains of Shelley’s other prose fiction, including his chapbook, Wolfstein, and contemporary reviews both by Shelley and about his work.

Book Description
* The author is the world's leading expert on Florentine politics in the Renaissance period Nicolai Rubinstein's unique command of the complexities of Florentine political history has resulted in this extremely impressive study of the Palazzo Vecchio and the way in which it functioned as a seat of the Florentine republican government from the late thirteenth century to 1530. He traces thehistory of the construction and successive changes to the building in the republican period, documents where the various committees and officers of the government were housed, and relates the consecutive campaigns of decoration of the interior very closely and subtly to changes in the politicaltemperature of the city. Rubinstein's extraordinarily scrupulous approach to the evidence, together with the exhaustive archival research he has carried out, have produced an important study, which arrives at a number of new and important conclusions to particular problems of concern to art historians as well as politicalhistorians.
