SUMMARY
"Anthony Grafton has performed a signal service by reconciling the fissiparous tendencies of modern Renaissance scholarship. Above all, he clarifies the different voices employed by Alberti, the loose ties that never quite bound him to any one master or any particular grand design. The picture that emerges here is of a scholar-actor, subtle and labile, who marshalled his knowledge of antiquity and his creative talents to forge a new role for himself as adviser to artists and power brokers alike."Grafton, Anthony is the author of 'Leon Battista Alberti Master Builder of the Italian Renaissance', published 2002 under ISBN 9780674008687 and ISBN 0674008685.
