A review by marc129
The Book of the Courtier by Baldassare Castiglione

2.0

Fictionalised conversations by historic characters at the court of Urbino, Italy, 1507. The author his hiding behind these characters. Central focus on "grazia": amiable conduct, apparent carelessness, but with the purpose to flatter the lord. Interesting as an historic document, but rather dull to read, I'm afraid.
