Description: David I. Kertzer is the Paul Dupee, Jr. University Professor of Social Science and professor of anthropology and Italian studies at Brown University, where he served as provost from 2006 to 2011. He is the author of twelve books, including "The Pope and Mussolini," winner of the 2015 Pulitzer Prize for biography and the American Historical Association Prize for best book on Italian history. Kertzer is one of the world’s foremost experts on the history of Italy and the Vatican and has a rare ability to bring that history vividly to life. His new book, "The Pope Who Would Be King," sheds fascinating new light on the end of rule by divine right in the West and the emergence of modern Europe.
