Architecture, Languages and Style in Fifteenth-Century Italy

In the field of Renaissance architecture there has been a shift towards examining specific debates about the nature and forms of particular languages and architecture, and a number of scholars have focused on 16th-century discussions about Italian and Tuscan, making direct connections with contemporary architectural ideas.

The area of parallels between 15th-century dialects and issues of architectural style is ripe for exploration. (Quotes from original text)
