The following books by Eugenio Garin probably contain
the most balanced and documented interpretation of
humanism: L'umanesimo italiano (Bari, 1952), trans. P.
Munz as Italian Humanism (New York, 1966); Medioevo e
Rinascimento
(Bari, 1954); La cultura filosofica del
Rinascimento italiano
(Bari, 1961); La cultura del
Rinascimento
(Bari, 1967). On the same subject see also
Cesare Vasoli, La dialettica e la retorica dell'umanesimo
(Milan, 1968).
