Between the end of the Renaissance and the start of the
Enlightenment, Europe lived through an era known as the Age of
Reason. This was a period which saw advances in areas such as art,
science, philosophy, political theory and economics. However, all
this was achieved against a background of extreme turbulence in the
form of internal conflicts and international wars. While the 'land
of liberty' was beginning to import slaves from Africa. Focusing on
key characters from the seventeenth to the eighteenth centuries,
including Caravaggio, Rembrandt, Newton, Descartes, Spinoza, Louis
XIV and Charles I, Dark Brilliance is a fascinating and
wide-ranging history that explores the human costs of imposing
progress and modernity.
