Brought to you by Odyssey
November 02, 2024 - November 30, 2024 (5 Sessions)
Saturday, 10:00AM ET - 11:30AM ET
Virtual via Zoom
Offered as part of the Fall 2024 Odyssey Alumni Academy - courses exclusively for alumni and taught by esteemed members of our alumni community and faculty.
Course Description: The Medici family are often associated with their unreserved support and patronage of the arts, literature and culture. Their ruthlessness, unscrupulous opportunism and boundless political ambition, however, tend to be much less celebrated. Who were the Medici family and how did they shape Renaissance Florence? Join us on a course that seeks to investigate the most intimate nature of Cosimo, Piero, Lorenzo the Magnificent and several other members of this most remarkable family. Interactive lectures followed by seminar discussion. No previous knowledge required.
