Excerpt from Italy From Dante to Tasso, 1300 1600: Its Political History as Viewed From the Standpoints of the Chief Cities With Descriptions of Important Episodes and Personalities and of the Art and Literature of the Three Centuries I have resisted the temptation to give a list of all discoverable books that treat, more or less directly, any of the numerous themes touched upon in this volume. Many of the writers from whom I have taken my facts are mentioned in the text, or in the footnotes. Among these are, of course, the chief chroniclers, ancient and modern, of my period. In regard to art and literature, although one may owe more than one thinks to many of the innumerable writers on such subjects, it is possible to form one's own opinions by studying originals, and to feel that a familiarity with great originals pro vides a fairly trustworthy basis for such opinions. And here I take the opportunity of expressing my gratitude to my friend the publisher of this book, who by suggesting that I should write it has once more incited and enabled me to widen and deepen my knowledge and my love of Italian art and literature, and to live for many months in the near presence of much that is supremely beautiful.
