A Portuguese Abbot in Renaissance Florence
The Letter Collection of Gomes Eanes (1415-1463)
by Rita Costa-Gomes
An annotated edition of the letters received in Italy by Gomes Eanes, a Portuguese at the head of the Badia Fiorentina (Monastery of Santa Maria of Florence) between 1419 and 1439. These texts provide detailed record of the abbot’s activities and communication with men and women from different parts of Europe. An introductory study discusses his life and career, the archival origins of the collection, and letter-writing in the 1400s.
