Christine Shaw’s Barons and Castellans is the first book-length English language study of the military nobility, an important but often overlooked segment of the elite in Renaissance Italy. The military nobility, also aptly referred to as “signori di castelli“(“lords of castles”) or “barons and castellans” in this study, did not fit a single model but rather varied widely in terms of their resources, power, and temperament. As a result, Shaw’s study is comparative, focusing on these martially-inclined nobles and their military resources in a number of distinct regions of the Italian peninsula (e.g. Lombardia, the Veneto, Liguria, Rome, the Kingdom of Naples, etc.).

The military nobility ? \'signori di castelli\', lords of castles ? formed an important component of the society of Renaissance Italy, although they have often been disregarded by historians, or treated as an anomaly. In Barons and Castellans: The Military Nobility of Renaissance Italy , Christine Shaw provides the first comparative study of ?lords of castles ?, great and small, throughout Italy, examining their military and political significance, and how their roles changed during the Italian Wars. Her main focus is on their military resources and how they deployed them in public and private wars, in pursuit of their own interests and in the service of others, and on how their military weight affected their political standing and influence.
