Dear Arlisans, I thought some of you may wish to know about my radio interview with Yvonne Elet <https://www.vassar.edu/faculty/yvelet/>, Associate Professor of Art here at Vassar College, about her new book from CUP: *Architectural Invention in Renaissance Rome: Artists, Humanists, and the Planning of Raphael's Villa Madama. *The book bores into Renaissance planning and building processes in which poets and other humanists make a contribution, along with artists and architects, to the conceptualization and formation of architectural monuments. The quote from CUP on the website sums the book up nicely as a polymathic investigation into a polymathic artist (Raphael): http://library-cafe.org. There are also a handful of recent interviews of Renaissance scholars about art books further down on the page, including, relatedly, Arielle Saiber's recent book Measured Words: Computation and Writing in Renaissance Italy (Toronto UP, 2017), Meredith Gill's Angels and the Order of Heaven in Medieval and Renaissance Italy (Cambridge UP, 2014), and Glory Kury's *When Giorgione Died: A Rebuildunsroman in Two Volumes (Periscope 2016).* Thank you.
