Inhalt:
In 1537, Florentine Duke Alessandro dei Medici was murdered by his cousin Lorenzino dei Medici.His treachery forced him into exile and senate accepted aother candidate, Cosimo dei Medici. Gregory Murry argues that these triumphs were far from a foregone conclusion. Drawing on a wide variety of archival and published sources, he examines how Cosimo and his propagandists successfully crafted an image of Cosimo as a legitimate sacral monarch.
