A Companion to the Worlds of the Renaissance, Paperback / softback Book

A Companion to the Worlds of the Renaissance Paperback / softback

Edited by Guido (University of Miami) Ruggiero

Part of the Blackwell Companions to European History series

Paperback / softback

Description

This volume brings together some of the most exciting renaissance scholars to suggest new ways of thinking about the period and to set a new series of agendas for Renaissance scholarship. Overturns the idea that it was a period of European cultural triumph and highlights the negative as well as the positive. Looks at the Renaissance from a world, as opposed to just European, perspective. Views the Renaissance from perspectives other than just the cultural elite. Gender, sex, violence, and cultural history are integrated into the analysis.
