A Sudden Frenzy explores the development and impact of these Renaissance practices of improvisation and oral poetry. James K. Coleman shows how the confluence of humanist culture and the art of oral poetry resulted in an extraordinary turn toward improvisation and spontaneity that profoundly influenced poetry, music, and politics. By examining the culture of improvisation, this book reveals the ways in which Renaissance thinkers transcended cultural dichotomies, both in theory and in practice. Drawing on a wide range of sources, including letters, poetry, visual art, and philosophical texts, A Sudden Frenzy reveals the far-reaching and sometimes surprising ways that these phenomena shaped cultural developments in the Italian Renaissance and beyond."--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aToronto Italian Studies 606 $aFolk poetry, Italian$xHistory and criticism 606 $aHumanism$zItaly 606 $aImprovisation (Music)$xHistory$y15th century 606 $aItalian poetry$y15th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aPerformance poetry$zItaly$xHistory and criticism 606 $aRenaissance$zItaly 606 $aVocal music$zItaly$y15th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / Renaissance$2bisacsh 607 $aItaly$2fast 607 $aItalie$xCivilisation$y1268-1559 607 $aItaly$xCivilization$y1268-1559 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2fast 610 $aAngelo Poliziano. 610 $aFlorence. 610 $aItalian art. 610 $aItalian literature. 610 $aItaly. 610 $aLorenzo de?
