| Summary | "Beatrice d'Este, Duchess of Milan, 1475-1497" by Julia Cartwright is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the life of Beatrice d'Este, who was the wife of Lodovico Sforza, Duke of Milan, during a significant period of Italian history marked by political intrigue, cultural flourishing, and personal tragedy. It focuses on her personality, her political influence, and the court life in Milan, illustrating her role in the elaborate tapestry of Renaissance Italy. At the start of the work, the author establishes the context of Beatrice's birth into the House of Este and her early life in Ferrara, highlighting the political landscape that would shape her destiny. The narrative touches upon her prestigious lineage, the love of culture within her family, and the serendipitous betrothal to Lodovico Sforza. The opening sets the stage for Beatrice’s emergence as a central figure in Milan’s splendor, marked by a series of events that would lead to her eventual marriage and the subsequent political dynamics surrounding it.
