H. Curt ’56 and Patricia S. ’57 Hege Professor of History Tim Kircher has recently published an essay on the work of the Renaissance humanist and artist Leon Battista Alberti (1404-1472). The essay concerns a fable that Alberti wrote, Fate and Fortune, which inspired later such thinkers as Leonardo da Vinci. Tim's essay appears in a volume entitled, Leon Battista Alberti: Intercenales: A Collection of Short Neo-Latin Prose Works Between Antiquity and Modernity, ed. H. Wulfram (Stuttgart: Franz Steiner, 2021).
