It evokes the lord of Rimini, Sigismondo Pandolfo Malatesta (barely thirty-three at the time), his beloved Isotta and his familial and dynastic topographies, together with the bloody battles he fought as a mercenary captain, his early successes and his terrible defeats. It evokes a whole series of key names, prominent among them being that of Leon Battista Alberti, here working for the first time as a creative architect. It evokes the artists called to Rimini by Sigismondo: Matteo de' Pasti, Agostino di Duccio, Piero della Francesca, Maso di Bartolomeo. It evokes an entire landscape of antiquarian learning, from Cyriac of Ancona to Roberto Valturio; from Basinio da Parma to Leonardo Bruni. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eContents: \u003c\/b\u003e Anno Domini 1450 - Antonio Paolucci Sigismondo Pandolfo Malatesta, Pio II e il Tempio Malatestiano: la chiesa di San Francesco come manifesto politico - Marco Folin L'architettura - Massimo Bulgarelli A Rimini e altrove.
