Esule, diplomatico, cortigiano e umanista, Bartolomeo Cavalcanti rappresenta in pieno la figura dell'uomo di lettere e di negozio tipica della prima eta moderna. Allievo di Machiavelli e scrittore stimato, egli e stato altresi uno fra i maggiori protagonisti del fuoriuscitismo repubblicano fiorentino del XVI secolo. Al centro di un fitto scambio di dispacci, opere, libri, denari e soldati, Cavalcanti e stato pero, prima di tutto, un ambasciatore in esilio, che utilizzo canali paralleli, informali e sovente segreti, costruendo reti articolate di comunicazioni e assistenza economica tra l'Italia e la Francia. Questo volume costituisce la biografia completa del personaggio, le cui vicende consentono di indagare sulla nascita e la formazione di una repubblica fiorentina in esilio, nonche di ricostruire il piano delle dinamiche geopolitiche in atto tra gli Stati italiani e le potenze continentali all'interno di quello straordinario scenario rappresentato dalle horrende guerre d'Italia. Un capitolo di storia non istituzionale ancora oggi poco noto, che permette di affrontare temi e questioni che caratterizzarono l'Europa della prima meta del Cinquecento.
