Funded Activity Summary

Fathers and Friends: Patronage and Patriarchy in Renaissance Florence. This study of patronage and patriarchy in Renaissance Florence, analysing social networks and structures and the relationship between politics, the state, personal behaviour and cultural innovation, addresses issues central to understanding how cultures are constructed. Since the entwined structures and discourses of power, state, and culture that shaped our nation were laid down in Renaissance Europe, the quality of life in our multi-cultural communities, the negotiation of our changing relation to the global community, and current public discussions about philanthropy and the investment of cultural capital would benefit from this project, which will add to Australia's investment in international research at the highest level.
