The Renaissance idea of wisdom by Eugene F. Rice, Jr.

I read the first two and last chapters. The Renaissance "humanized the object of wisdom and [/or] guaranteed the natural autonomy of its acquisition” (201). The peculiar fact that the Renaissance redefined wisdom as active virtue is not important to me.
