The new edition of this classic history examines the political,
economic, social, religious and cultural life of Europe at the
height of the Renaissance. J.R. Hale not only records the events of
1480-1520, but also suggests what it was like to have lived in this
period. He provides readers with an understanding of the quality of
lives of people living at this time and includes processes and
personalities not often covered by other books. For the second
edition Professor Michael Mallet provides an updated bibliography
and an extended introduction explaining the book's place in the
historiography of the subject.
The book is arranged thematically, each chapter designed to
provide information about a specific field of inquiry and also give
an insight into the people of this era. J. R. Hale investigates how
these people felt about their environment and the passage of time;
their relationships with government and other institutions, from
the Church to the family; their economic frameworks; the part
religion played in their lives; and what cultural and intellectual
pursuits were available to them.
"Renaissance Europe" compares our own attitudes to those of the
Renaissance and vice versa, thereby enriching the readers
understanding of everyday life in the past.
