Recenzii
'The essays cover a variety of topics and amply demonstrate Italian curiosity about the New World. Recommended for Graduate students and faculty.' P. Grendler, Choice
'… engage[s] with scholarship on Mediterranean and world history, contributing to the growing field of a Global Renaissance. Much of this scholarship makes tight connections between the political and trade relationships and the cultural results … The importance of [this volume's] contribution to Global Renaissance scholarship lies in the identification of the New World as a field of engagement and cultural reference point.' Monique O'Connell, European History Quarterly
