Filosofia e vita civile. Lo storicismo di Eugenio Garin

Many are the influences attributed to Garin’s historicism: Gramsci, Croce, Gentile, the religious existentialism.This unstable but not groundless historicism is based on a concept of man and humanity that Garin derives from his remarkable Renaissance historiography.The various portraits of men – such as Pico della Mirandola, Coluccio Salutati, Leonardo Bruni or the Intercenalia’s Alberti – illustrate Garin’s different ideas of humanism that mark and define his historicism.
