 The Medieval Papacy European History in Perspective

In their captivating and meticulously researched book, “Plague and Pleasure: The Renaissance World of Pius II,” authors Arthur White and Michael Lewis transport readers back to the vibrant and tumultuous era of the Italian Renaissance. Through the lens of Pope Pius II, they offer a rich tapestry of history, politics, religion, and culture that defined this remarkable period.

The book opens with a vivid description of the Europe of the late 15th century, a time marked by profound social, economic, and intellectual changes. Against this backdrop, we meet Enea Silvio Piccolomini, a talented and ambitious young man from Siena who would later become Pope Pius II. Through his eyes, we witness the rise of humanism, the rediscovery of classical texts, and the flourishing of art, literature, and science.

White and Lewis delve into the complex political landscape of Renaissance Italy, where city-states vied for power.
