They were clubs combining conviviality with the pursuit of study ; and it too fre- quently happened that the spirit of their jovial meet- ings extended itself to the dicerie, cicalate and capitoli recited by their members, when the cloth was drawn and the society sat down to intellectual banquets. At the same time the Academies were so fashionable and so universal that they gave the tone to literature. It was the ambition of all rising students to be numbered with the more illustrious bodies ; and when a writer of promise joined one of these, he naturally felt the in- fluence of his companions.
