Featuring work by researchers in the fields of early modern
studies, Italian studies, ecclesiastical history and
historiography, this volume of essays adds to a rich corpus of
literature on Renaissance and early modern historiography, bringing
a unique approach to several of the problems currently facing the
field. Essays fall into three categories: the tensions and
challenges of writing history in Renaissance Italy; the importance
of intellectual, philosophical and political contexts for the
reading and writing of history in renaissance and early modern
Europe; and the implications of genre for the reading and writing
of history. By collecting essays that cut across a broad
cross-section of the disciplines of history and historiography, the
book is able to offer solutions, encourage discussion, and engage
in ongoing debates that bear direct relevance for our understanding
of the origins of modern historical practices. This approach also
allows the contributors to engage with critical questions
concerning the continued relevance of history for political and
social life in the past and in the present.
