Eleonora di Toledo was a powerful and influential woman who, over the course of nearly a quarter century (1539-62), contributed profoundly to the cultural flowering of ducal Florence. But in spite of all these contributions, Eleonora has attracted little attention from scholars. The examination of her impact on Tuscany provided in this volume is long overdue.
