Renaissance Futurities considers the intersections between artistic
rebirth, the new science, and European imperialism in the global
early modern world. Charlene Villasenor Black and Mari-Tere Alvarez
take as inspiration the work of Renaissance genius Leonardo da
Vinci (1452-1519), prolific artist and inventor, and other
polymaths such as philosopher Giulio "Delminio" Camillo
(1480-1544), physician and naturalist Francisco Hernandez de Toledo
(1514-1587), and writer Miguel de Cervantes (1547-1616). This
concern with futurity is inspired by the Renaissance itself, a
period defined by visions of the future, as well as by recent
theorizing of temporality in Renaissance and Queer Studies. This
transdisciplinary volume is at the cutting edge of the humanities,
medical humanities, scientific discovery, and avant-garde artistic
expression.
