Cultural exchange, the dynamic give and take between two or more
cultures, has become a distinguishing feature of modern Europe.
This was already an important feature to the elites of the
fifteenth, sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and it played a
central role in their fashioning of self. The cultures these elites
exchanged and often integrated with their own were both material
and immaterial; they included palaces, city-dwellings, paintings,
sculptures, ceramics, dresses and jewellery, but also gestures,
ways of sitting, standing and walking, and dances. In this
innovative and well-illustrated 2007 volume all this lively
exchange is traced from Bruges, Augsburg and Istanbul to Italy;
from Italy to Paris, Amsterdam, Dresden, Novgorod and Moscow; and
even from Brazil to Rouen. This volume, which reveals how a first
European identity was forged, will appeal to cultural and art
historians, as well as social and cultural anthropologists.
