This book explores how the Renaissance entailed a global exchange
of goods, skills and ideas between East and West. In chapters
ranging from Ottoman history to Venetian publishing, from portraits
of St George to Arab philosophy, from cannibalism to diplomacy, the
authors interrogate what all too often may seem to be settled
certainties, such as the difference between East and West, the
invariable conflict between Islam and Christianity, and the
'rebirth' of European civilization from roots in classical Greece
and Imperial Rome.
