Book excerpt: Najemy offers a new interpretation of Florentine politics from the first attempt to institute a guild-based republic at the end of the thirteenth century to the advent of the consensus politics of civic humanism in the generation around 1400. The leading themes are: the role of the guilds in politics; the significance of the corporate ideology they advanced and the institutions implementing them; and the evolution of a new kind of republicanism that was both elitist and broadly based.
