De familia is Alberti’s Italian masterpiece. In it, the author makes an effort to comprehend the rich merchants and bankers of Florence. Researchers like Sombart and Braudel have been struck by the density and novelty of the work and see it as an essential source for understanding the origins of capitalism.

Review - French Les livresDe familia, ecrits sur une decennie a partir du debut des annees 1430, sont certainement le chef-d'oeuvre en langue vernaculaire d'Alberti (1404-1472). Au fil de quatre dialogues ou des positions divergentes entrent en composition sans jamais s'annuler mutuellement, l'on assiste aux efforts du jeune intellectuel Leon Battista pour comprendre sa famille et son milieu socioculturel, celui des riches marchands et banquiers florentins. La densite de l'ouvrage et la modernite de son propos ont frappe des sociologues et des historiens de l'economie aussi celebres que Werner Sombart, Amintore Fanfani et Fernand Braudel, qui n'ont pas hesite a affirmer que ces ecrits constituaient une source essentielle sur l'origine du capitalisme.
