Greek Scholars in Venice: Studies in the Dissemination of Greek Learning from Byzantium to Western Europe is a book written by Deno John Geanakoplos. The book traces the history of Greek scholars who migrated to Venice and other parts of Western Europe after the fall of Constantinople in 1453. It explores the role of these scholars in disseminating Greek learning and culture in the West during the Renaissance period. The book covers a range of topics, including the relationship between the Greek scholars and the Italian humanists, the impact of Greek learning on Western art and literature, and the contribution of the Greek scholars to the development of Western political thought. It also examines the cultural and political context in which the Greek scholars lived and worked, and the challenges they faced in adapting to their new environment. Overall, Greek Scholars in Venice is a comprehensive study of the role of Greek scholars in the transmission of classical Greek knowledge to the West, and their impact on the cultural and intellectual life of Europe during the Renaissance.Contents Include Part 1, The Background; And Part 2, The Disseminators.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
