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):

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.

Cheers,

Thomas
