Finn, your Starvard guide

Hola, me llamo Finn y voy a ayudarte a entender este libro.

Aquí está, explicado como si tuvieras 10 años:

Hace mucho tiempo, Italia estaba dividida en muchos estados pequeños, y algo nuevo empezó a pasar allí. Los gobernantes daban forma a sus ciudades como los artistas dan forma a un cuadro. La gente empezó a firmar su trabajo, a escribir la historia de su propia vida y a querer ser conocida por quién era. Burckhardt, un historiador cuidadoso de Suiza, cuenta cómo el arte, el saber, los modales e incluso las fiestas nacieron de este cambio. Mucho de lo que llamamos vida moderna, dice, empieza aquí.
