“Biquette the goat, sold to an abattoir after she stopped producing milk but was rescued by punks and then spent 10 years watching grindcore bands. Se could come and go as she pleased and, in the words of her rescuers, “escaped death, lived punk”. Absolute legend.”
From Forests by Michael Chinery, illustrated by Bernard Long and Eric Robson. 1992.

I’ve been meaning to make a masterpost with a list of books and articles for people interested in the Italian Renaissance - so, behold! These are taken mostly from my own bookshelf, syllabi of classes I’ve taken, and bibliographies I’ve compiled for papers I’ve written. I’ve tried to provide a broader overview of the Renaissance with more general topics, and not to give books that are too incredibly specific and not relevant unless you’re working specifically in topic. I’ve also tried to find PDFs or links for anything that you can access online.
I hope this is useful for anyone who’s interested in this period, and I will always be happy to answer questions or try to provide sources for more specific topics!
