How to order this book


Long valued by a small circle of cognoscenti, Michelangelo’s poetry is beginning to establish itself as one of the major achievements of Italian Renaissance literature. Dense, vivid and idiosyncratic, it throws a unique light both on the personality of the great visual artist and on the principal poetic, intellectual and religious concerns of one of the most vibrant periods in Western culture. The poems in this book are selected from Christopher Ryan’s complete edition and translation.
