Women in the Streets by Samuel K Cohn Jr
Ultimately, Cohn argues, women are the protagonists of this book, whether the issue is their support of other women or the resolution of conflict in the streets of Florence, the control of their own dowries or the salvation of their own souls.
Together these essays from this distinguished Renaissance historian will challenge and inform students and scholarsThey represent social history at its finest, posing proper questions and marshaling substantial evidence to support all conclusions. -- Michael Galgano History
