"Caravale's masterful and well-researched study strengthens the link between Italian Humanism and the notion of tolerance that was to become a prime feature of Enlightenment thinking: a necessary work for students of intellectual history."Damon Di Mauro, Gordon College. In: Sixteenth Century Journal , Vol. 47, No. 3 (Fall 2016), pp. 711-712., "Caravale's masterful and well-researched study strengthens the link between Italian Humanism and the notion of tolerance that was to become a prime feature of Enlightenment thinking: a necessary work for students of intellectual history."Damon Di Mauro, Gordon College. In: Sixteenth Century Journal , Vol. 47, No. 3 (Fall 2016), pp. 711-712. "The book's excellent introduction and bold conclusion leave no doubt about its theme: Pucci was not the isolated heretic of earlier scholarship, but should be set in the great tradition of radical reformers, both within Italy and outside it. [...] Caravale's own seriousness about this disappointed wanderer pervades his immensely scholarly book. [...] Caravale's grand themes are illuminating, as is his colourful depiction of the naïve and changeable Pucci: he is made part of a whole storm-tossed society living through the trauma--and the hope--generated by schism and 'reform'. [...] A great achievement."M. Anne Overell, Durham University. In: English Historical Review , Vol. 132, Issue 558 (December 2017)."Cette belle biographie intellectuelle d'un personnage éminemment original pour son époque est aussi un vrai livre d'histoire. Tout au long de son analyse fine et argumentée des idées de Pucci, Caravale veille à ne jamais les détacher de leur contexte d'élaboration et de diffusion. Et ce n'est pas la moindre qualité de cet ouvrage très réussi."Hugues Daussy, Université de Franche-Comté. In: Renaissance and Reformation , Vol. 41, No. 3 (summer 2018), pp. 206-208.

Synopsis
In The Italian Reformation outside Italy , Giorgio Caravale reconstructs the life and intellectual career of Francesco Pucci (1543-1597), presenting a rich chapter of sixteenth-century European intellectual history., What was the legacy of the so-called Italian Reformation? What contribution did Italian humanism make to European developments in irenicism and religious tolerance? In The Italian Reformation outside Italy , Giorgio Caravale uses previously unpublished documents to reconstruct the life and intellectual career of Francesco Pucci (1543-1597). Educated in Renaissance Florence, Pucci found his vocation as a prophet in France during the Wars of Religion and embarked on a long period of peregrination, stopping off in Paris, London, Basle, Antwerp, Krakow and Prague before being imprisoned, tried and sentenced to death by the Roman Inquisition three years before Giordano Bruno. His doctrines were judged to be heretical by all religious confessions and his political proposal was a spectacular failure. Caravale presents a rich chapter of sixteenth-century European history whose main features are religious conflict, irenic tension, universalist aspirations and prophetic expectations.The translation of this work has been funded by SEPS (SEGRETARIATO EUROPEO PER LE PUBBLICAZIONI SCIENTIFICHE), Via Val d'Aposa 7, I-40123 Bologna, Italy -- seps@seps.it -- www.seps.it

    Great transaction. I've only traded with them a couple of times, but they seem consistent. The quality of the book was better than described, incredible packing, with next day shipping. I will deal with On Time Books again in the near future. Great value for the money, many thanks.
