Quick Write
What is your reaction to Baldesar Castigliones description of a courtier and court lady?
"Actually, the true Renaissance man should not be defined by genius, which is rare... It is best defined by variety of interests and their cultivation as a proficient amateur. A Renaissance man or woman has the skill to fashion verses and accompany or sing them; a taste for good letters and good paintings, for Roman antiquities and the new architecture; and some familiarity with the rival philosophies.
Barzun, Jacques, From Dawn to Decadence, Perennial, 2000, p79.
