The Renaissance, now in its third edition, engages with earlier and
current debates about the Renaissance, especially concerning its
'modernity', its elitism and gender bias and its globalism. This
new edition has been revised to include a discussion of Venice,
Rome, Naples and Florence and their relationship with surrounding
courts and smaller provincial towns. Brown provides a fresh insight
into some of the main themes of the Renaissance, with humanism now
being explored in relation to gender, the position of women and the
response of religious reformers to the new ideas. The broad
geographical scope, concluding with an examination of diffusion
through trade with Constantinople, Portugal and Spain, allows
students to fully explore how the Renaissance transformed into a
global movement. Key themes, such as humanism, art and
architecture, Renaissance theatre and the invention of printing,
are illustrated with quotations and exempla, making this book an
invaluable source for students of the Renaissance, early modern
history and social and cultural history.
