Download or read book Medici Money written by Tim Parks and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2013-08-22 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Medici are famous as the rulers of Florence at the high point of the Renaissance. Their power derived from the family bank, and this book tells the fascinating, frequently bloody story of the family and the dramatic development and collapse of their bank (from Cosimo who took it over in 1419 to his grandson Lorenzo the Magnificent who presided over its precipitous decline). The Medici faced two apparently insuperable problems: how did a banker deal with the fact that the Church regarded interest as a sin and had made it illegal? How in a small republic like Florence could he avoid having his wealth taken away by taxation? But the bank became indispensable to the Church. And the family completely subverted Florence's claims to being democratic. They ran the city. Medici Money explores a crucial moment in the passage from the Middle Ages to the Modern world, a moment when our own attitudes to money and morals were being formed. To read this book is to understand how much the Renaissance has to tell us about our own world. Medici Money is one of the launch titles in a new series, Atlas Books, edited by James Atlas. Atlas Books pairs fine writers with stories of the economic forces that have shaped the world, in a new genre - the business book as literature.

Excerpt: ...like to carry, between the Liverpool and the Manchester of Italy. It was a literary commonplace to compare the merits of Venice and Florence, just as it had been to contrast Athens with Sparta, Carthage with Rome. Yet there was much deep-lying sympathy. Venice had been at once the natural and traditional ally of Florence against the aggressions of Milan and Naples; they were both Guelfic, both republics. Cosimo's change of policy had been unpopular in Florence, and it is at least probable that some of the unpopularity survived. It is significant that on the fall of Lorenzo's son the anti-Medicean party turned to Venice and regrafted her republican constitution from the Venetian stock; the Medicean despotism was a corruption, a phylloxera, only to be exterminated by a replanting of the native vine. The resentment of Venice against the Medici, overcome only for a moment in the war against Sixtus, was a constant cause of difficulty. Even more active than "this resentment was the ambition to extend her pos sessions in the Adriatic at the expense of Naples, which ran counter to the principles of Lorenzo's policy. Could he have relied on the impartial support of Venice, the Papal-Neapolitan dispute could scarcely have caused a moment's difficulty. But Venice, as Lorenzo's ambassador candidly confessed, hated him more intensely than Satan hates the Cross. Lorenzo's son, indeed, fled to Venice, chased from Florence by the restless oligarchy, even as Cosimo had been chased by the Albizzi. But the Venetians had learnt their lesson, they advised the exile notto return, because they thought his restoration certain if return he did. Another limitation to Lorenzo's diplomacy was the lack of military power....
