Humanism and Education in Medieval and Renaissance Italy by Robert Black

Humanism and Education in Medieval and Renaissance Italy: Tradition and Innovation in Latin Schools from the Twelfth to the Fifteenth Century by Robert Black
English | Apr 30, 2007 | ISBN: 0521036127 | 508 Pages | PDF | MB

The claim, central to many interpretations of the Renaissance, that humanists introduced a revolution in the classroom is refuted in Robert Black's masterly survey, based on over 500 manuscript school books. He shows that the study of classical texts in schools reached a high point in the twelfth century, followed by a collapse in the thirteenth as universities rose in influence.
