1631 VENICE Republic Italy Medici Politics Italian Elzevier Florentine Giannotti

Donato Giannotti was a 16^th-century Florentine political writer who is best known for his dialogue on the Republic of Venice. ‘Dialogi de Republica Venetorum’ was first published in 1540 and was one of the best sources for the history of Venice through the mid-1500s. While this book serves as a historical description of Venice, it was also written as a defense of republicanism and the government used in Venice in hopes of influencing Florence to adopt a similar style of government.
