The Civilization of the Period of the Renaissance in Italy. By Jacob Burckhardt. Authorized Translation by S. G. C. Middlemore.

"The whole of the first part of Dr. Burckhardt's work deals with what may be called the Political Preparation of the Renaissance. It is impossible here to do more than express a high opinion of the compact way in which the facts are put before the reader. . . . The second volume of Dr. Burckhardt's work is, we think, more full and complete in itself, more rich in original thought, than the first. His account of the causes which prevented the rise of great Italian drama is very clear and satisfying." —Saturday Review.
