Index

Recenzii

"...this collection identifies many rich sources yet to be plumbed, while several individual essays model useful methodologies for such investigation. As such, this volume is important to a far larger audience than scholars of Aeneas Silvius Piccolomini."
Emily O’Brien, Renaissance Quarterly.
