Editing Michelangelo (section)

== Introduction ==  
Michelangelo Buonarroti is best read as a high‑ability autistic whose artistic breakthroughs arose from monotropic focus, intolerance for interference, and solitary working practices. Contemporary witnesses called him “solitary and melancholy… [with] incredibly squalid” domestic habits and an aversion to pupils, which maps to social reciprocity differences and sensory‑routine priorities rather than mere “temper.” This page applies the TotalAutismo lens: treat autistic cognition as the through‑line, require converging evidence, and flag gaps.
