  • Renaissance is Dr. Ruggiero’s Neighborhood

    Just returned from 2 weeks in Italy with most spent in Florence and Rome. Missing the art, I found this great podcast! This guy is great. Short and to the point but very detailed when it counts. I wish I had known about him before I went, and would have hired him for tours!

  • Rocky rocks!

    I am, like many of Prof. Rock’s students and fans, an autodidact hungry for all things Renaissance. From Good Cosimo, Pater Patria , to the Dark Duke Cosimo, he has shown the flashlight of erudition and appreciation upon the serpentine corridors of time to illuminate the stories, context, and interpretations of this incredibly rich period of humanity.
