Don Renato: An Ideal Content is a book written by Frederick William Rolfe. The book is a fictional account of the life of Don Renato, a nobleman who lives in Italy during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The story is told through a series of letters written by Don Renato to his friend, a British writer named Frederick William Rolfe.Don Renato is a complex character who is deeply committed to his Catholic faith and the traditions of his family. He struggles with the changing social and political landscape of Italy, as well as his own personal demons. Throughout the book, he grapples with issues of love, faith, and morality, and ultimately comes to a greater understanding of himself and his place in the world.The book is written in a highly stylized and poetic language, with frequent references to classical literature and art. It is a work of historical fiction that offers a vivid portrayal of life in Italy during a tumultuous period of its history. Overall, Don Renato: An Ideal Content is a thought-provoking and beautifully written book that explores timeless themes of love, faith, and identity.Our artificers imitate their masters, or their antecessors. It is human to evade operose labor of body or mind. Labor of mind facilitly may be evaded by imitation: for, so, sollicitude of mind conducive to invention becomes supervacuous. Hence, artificers of a negligent nature follow traditions and canons of the schools. How many have intended themselves to imitate the inaccessible Messer Alessandro Filipepi?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
