The Universities of the Italian Renaissance

"Italian Renaissance universities were Europe's intellectual leaders in humanistic studies, law, medicine, philosophy, and science. Employing some of the foremost scholars of the time - including Pietro Pomponazzi, Andreas Vesalius, and Galileo Galilei - the Italian Renaissance university was the prototype of today's research university. This is the first book in any language to offer a comprehensive study of this most influential institution."--BOOK JACKET.

First sentence: The Middle Ages created the university, the period's most magnificent and enduring and achievement after the Christian Church.
