Volume Four of Six. Creighton writes in the Preface: My aim in this book is to bring together materials for a judgment of the change which came over Europe in the sixteenth century, to which the name of The Reformation is loosely given. I have attempted to do this from a strictly historical point of view, -by which I mean that I have contented myself with watching events and noting the gradual development of affairs. I have taken the history of the Papacy as the central point for my investigation, because it gives the largest opportunity for a survey of European affairs as a whole. Contents: Book V. The Italian Princes: Paul II.; Paul II in His Relations to Literature and Art; Sixtus IV. and the Republic of Florence; Italian Wars of Sixtus IV; Innocent VIII; Beginnings of Alexander VI; Charles VIII in Italy; Alexander VI and Fra Girolamo Savonarola; and Alexander VI and the Papal States.
