Book Synopsis
Bernard Berenson: Formation and Heritage explores the intellectual world of Berenson (1865–1959), who put the connoisseurship of Renaissance art on a firm footing at the turn of the twentieth century. Essays explore his relationships with various cultural figures including William James, Jean Paul Richter, Katherine Dunham, and many others.

Trade Review
In the past fifty years, Villa I Tatti has become a powerhouse of scholarly production on all aspects of Renaissance studies, and Bernard Berenson: Formation and Heritage celebrates this achievement by examining the founder’s intellectual achievements. Thoughtfully edited by Joseph Connors and Louis Waldman, the book stems from a conference held at I Tatti in 2009, and the range of papers published here is a testimony to the enduring fascination with Berenson. -- Bruce Boucher * Times Literary Supplement *
