Zusammenfassung:"When the men involved in the government of the states of Renaissance Italy explained the basis of the principles by which they argued that political life and the conduct of affairs were, or should be, shaped, "reason" and "experience" were what they most frequently cited. Sometimes they were cited separately, often together. When they were coupled together, they were treated as complementary to one another - as in the declaration in a Sienese decree of 1486 that: 'Reason shows and experience proves [La ragione demostra et la experientia prova]'. Reason, and ancient and modern examples, were what the Venetian Signoria told the Milanese ambassador in that year were the foundations of their thinking about relations with foreign powers.
