That's great, actually. We're using Robert Hole's text as well, and I bought The Rise and Fall of the House of Medici the other day on a whim, so I'm glad to hear it's worthwhile. We get a whole heap of hand outs as well, and our library is pretty good, but I'm always keeping an eye out for more options, so let me know if you find any really helpful ones, and how Art and Life In Renaissance Venice goes for you, if you don't mind :)

Oh wow, that's awesome - we're reading similar books! :)

I'll let you know about Art & Life when we start it in class. We won't start it for a while, though.

I'm just wondering if Renaissance Italy is a more difficult subject than Revolutions? I always assumed Revolutions was harder but I noticed Renaissance Italy gets marked up a lot more. Or is that just because the ordinary school is less likely to offer it?
My school is pretty average, and it offers Revolutions and not Renaissance Italy.

Renaissance Italy is considered to be the most difficult of the histories (hence it being marked up most). However, difficutly depends mostly upon the person. Obviously some people would find Renaissance easier than Revolutions - maybe they like it better, or find the concepts easier to grasp than those of Revolutions. I don't know if that helped, but I'm not sure that there is a 100% correct answer to that question sorry.

On a side note, I find it amusing that all three of us are interested in Arts/Law at Monash xD
