As Grand Chancellor to the Holy Roman Emperor, Mercurino di Gattinara (1465–1530) shaped the administration and aims of the Spanish Empire. Ard Boone situates Gattinara at the heart of Renaissance politics and propaganda and provides the first English translation of his autobiography in full.
Rebecca Ard Boone teaches courses on the Renaissance and Reformation, the Old Regime, early modern Europe, the French Revolution, and the Age of Columbus, among others at Rutgers University. An intellectual and cultural historian, her research focus is Renaissance Europe. Her work on sixteenth-century French political theorist Claude de Seyssel has been published in the Journal of the History of Ideas and appeared as War, Domination, and the Monarchy of France (Brill, 2007).
