Publisher Description: This new textbook provides a synthesis of the major themes of the European Renaissance, one of the most influential cultural revolutions in history. Professor Nauert traces the origins of the humanist "movement" and its development in the social and political environments of the wider European context. He charts the key intellectual, social, educational and philosophical concerns of this humanist revolution, using art and biographical sketches of key figures to illuminate the discussion. A full biographical guide to the subject is included.
