"Early Modern Italy: A Social History is a survey of society in Italy from the fifteenth to the eighteenth century - from the Renaissance to the Enlightenment." "Early Modern Italy covers the whole of the Italian peninsula from the Venetian Republic, Milan and Florence to Rome, Naples and the rural Italy of Calabria and Campagna."
