Furnished with four pioneering engravings made with the help of the Venetian artist Girolamo Mocetto, the De Nola is an impressively rich and multifaceted text, which contains an antiquarian (and celebratory) study of the city of Nola in the Kingdom of Naples. By describing antiquities, inscriptions, and buildings, as well as social and religious phenomena, the De Nola offers a precious window into a southern Italian Renaissance city, and constitutes a refined example of sixteenth-century antiquarianism. The work is analysed in a multidisciplinary approach, encompassing art and architectural history, antiquarianism, literature, social history, and anthropology. 410 0$aBrill's Studies in Intellectual History$v284. 606 $aCivilization 607 $aNola (Italy)$xCivilization 607 $aNola (Italy)$xHistory 615 0$aCivilization. 676 $a945/.73 700 $aBianca de Divitiis; Fulvio Lenzo; Lorenzo Miletti (Volume Editors)$01598293 702 $aDe Divitiis$b Bianca 702 $aLenzo$b Fulvio 702 $aMiletti$b Lorenzo 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910813847703321 996 $aAmbrogio Leone's De Nola, Venice 1514$93920443 997 $aUNINA
