dc.description.abstract | The scope of my research was to bring to life the figure of Lodovico Gonzaga as
an erudite humanist statesman. Although he is often framed in such terms,
conventional definitions such as "pupil of Vittorino da Feltre" and "prince of arms
and letters" are so often read as to have no real significance. His peer and former
schoolmate Federico da Montefeltro in Urbino, memorably depicted in his study
by Justus of Ghent, enjoys a deserved reputation for being a genuine humanist
prince. No such portrait exists for Lodovico, but his achievements as Marchese of
Mantua, in terms of both enlightened government and patronage of the arts, made
me suspect that such feats must have been underpinned by a profound humanist
education as well as, in all probability, a genuine interest in letters. | |
