Abstract

[If we are to call any age golden, it must be our age which has produced such a wealth of golden intellects. Evidence of this is provided by the inventions of this age. For this century, like a golden age, has restored to light the liberal arts that were almost extinct: grammar, poetry, oratory, painting, sculpture, architecture, music, the ancient singing of songs to the Orphic lyre, and all this in Florence. The two gifts venerated by the ancients but almost totally forgotten since have been reunited in our age: wisdom with eloquence and prudence with military art.]
