Looking beyond the marble elegance of Michelangelo’s David, the pugnacious, passionate, and—crucially—important story of Renaissance manhood. Making the Renaissance Man explores the images, objects, and experiences that fashioned men and masculinity in the courts of fifteenth-century Italy. Across the peninsula, Italian princes fought each other in fierce battles and spectacular jousts, seduced mistresses, flaunted splendor in lavish rituals of knighting, and demonstrated prowess through the hunt—all ostentatious performances of masculinity and the drive to rule. Hardly frivolous pastimes, these activities were essential displays of privilege and virility; indeed, violence underlay the cultural veneer of the Italian Renaissance. Timothy McCall investigates representations and ideals of manhood in this time and provides a historically grounded and gorgeously illustrated account of how male identity and sexuality proclaimed power during a century crucial to the formation of Early Modern Europe.

I will start by telling you about the variety of riches and experiences I have had in my life growing up in New England. My motto throughout my life has been “Never say never unless you try.” I’ve achieved this with a positive and confident attitude; sometimes I succeeded and other times I didn’t, but it was always a worthwhile experience because I tried! I know for a fact that when you read these memoirs, you will be saying, “This can’t be happening to him!” “What now!” “I don’t believe this!” and “Unbelievable!” Well, they did happen, and I survived to be a much richer man than if none of these events took place. I invite you to discover these avenues I have taken in reaching my state as a Renaissance man.
