RENAISSANCE’S NOVELS – Where he developed a new way to read and conceive of themselves

Advice on historical novels? If historical novels are your passion, there is a period that can inspire many suggestions: the Renaissance and its extraordinary protagonists. Caravaggio and Leonardo, Raphael and Brunelleschi, Botticelli, Masaccio and Tiziano. That of Caravaggio – for example – has been an eventful and adventurous life lived intensely and relentlessly. He got the glory, gained the protection of the powerful and wherever he went his reputation preceded him. But often she sank, between the simplest people. He met the flight and fear, shame and contempt. He tried brawl and violence. His death seems a joke of history.

THE GALILEO VIOLIN – Roberto Villa

In his life he threw a lot of seeds, and some of these persevere in building a society without intrigue. There is a man who – in the second half of the seventeenth century – in Milan is much talked about. He was convicted of heresy and fled abroad. United Pontifical agents arrested him. It ends its existence in the Roman prison of Castel Sant’Angelo. The brotherhood of the pure in heart, there is no place for violence. Who has shattered the harmony company will pay with blood. https://www.amazon.it/Il-Violino-Galileo-Roberto-Villa-ebook/dp/B0072G3142/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1479295919&sr=1-1&keywords=IL+VIOLINO+DI+GALILEO%2C++Roberto+Villa

GENS ARCANA – Cecilia Randall

Against the backdrop of the magnificent Florence of Lorenzo de ‘Medici, the arcane gestures mingle with those of the Pazzi conspiracy, in a whirlpool from which nothing and no one can escape. Valiano de ‘Nieri, is a descendant of one of the most ancient and noble Italian families of Arcana. He has refused his powers, he fled and tries to live a normal life, working as an apprentice violin maker. His father dies, his brother is kidnapped, and he realizes he can not escape his fate. https://www.amazon.it/Gens-Arcana-Oscar-bestsellers-Vol-ebook/dp/B007YBSFX2/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1479295839&sr=1-1-fkmr0&keywords=GENS+ARCANA+%E2%80%93+Cecilia+Randall+%2C+english+version
