	Leonardo Bruni - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Born in Arezzo, Tuscany, Bruni was the leading pupil of Coluccio Salutati and succeeded him as chancellor in 1410.
		Bruni's time in office was not as perilous a time for Florence as a few years earlier, but it was still very involved in long running warfare.
		Bruni did not lead the city to nearly the extent of his predecessor as first the Albizzi family and then the Medici family dominated the city during his time in office.

	ComparisionCity
		Leonardo’s plans for an ideal city itself came in the wake of a 1484 plague in Milan, where Leonardo was in the patronage of Duke Ludovico Sforza.
		Leonardo envisioned a multi-tiered city, with three distinct levels corresponding to social position in much the same fashion as the concentric circles of Plato and Bruni or the segregated neighborhoods of Alberti.
		Leonardo’s ideal city was a thoroughly innovative concept which, true to Garin’s interpretation of Leonardo, marked the first attempt “to survey and organize the natural forces of a whole region so as to serve human purposes” (Masters 43).

		Bruni is opposed to this theory and tries to demonstrate the futile argument with the rhetorical use of the similitudo or simile.

		Bruni chose not, in his history, to point back to the spoliation of its ecclesiastical patrimony that Florence had carried out during the war, and to the subsequent decades of restitution, that had necessitated this project.

	Essay on Baron's Civic Humanism Thesis
		In particular, Baron argues that early humanists were incapable of breaking free from the mindset that fused theology and the defense of monarchy; the civic humanism of the Quattrocento, first seen in the work of Leonardo Bruni, broke free from this paradigm and articulated a new ideal of republicanism and civic life.
		He admits that it seems necessary to redefine Bruni’s uniqueness from “the first in Western European history to articulate an integrated theory of republicanism [to] the first to develop in true humanist fashion a theory of republicanism set in historical perspective, together with a civic ethic embodying the theory as a way of life” (114).
		Witt uses this evidence to argue against claims of Bruni’s disloyalty to republicanism, but the more important conclusion to be drawn here is that the civic humanism of Bruni was marshaled in support of oligarchy, not to ensure the equality of all citizens that is superficially evident in Bruni’s work.

	Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2005.02.33
		Although the political background of Bruni's scholarly activity should have been stressed more forcefully, especially regarding such texts as his Laudatio Florentinae urbis or the Historiae Florentini populi, Botley's survey is very useful in its careful dating of the humanist's many versions and their relationship with his other writings.
		In this section of Chapter I, Botley focuses on Bruni's use of his sources and the defense he had to make of such re-elaborations against early fifteenth-century critics.
		Finally, since Manetti followed Bruni (whom he openly acknowledged as his intellectual role model) also in writing a treatise on translation theory (book V of his Apologeticus), Botley ends Chapter II with a short yet enlightening discussion of this work.
