Hi,
I'm beginning to research the time period my book will take place (17th Century Italy) but I'm feeling a little lost.
I already have the basic plot on my mind, but I need some historical accuracy, since I wouldn't start writing before having at least a basic knowledge of life at the time. I have found a huge amount of books and novels on the Renaissance, but my story takes place after, on Early Modern Italy. I know that Italy was divided in States at the time, and I'm more specifically looking for content on the Republic of Venice and surrounding area...
Can anyone recommend me non-fiction books, novels, movies, or give me any tips on how to conduct my research?
Thanks!
