Charlene Villaseñor Black and Mari-Tere Álvarez take as inspiration the work of Renaissance genius Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519), prolific artist and inventor, and other polymaths such as philosopher Giulio "Delminio" Camillo (1480-1544), physician and naturalist Francisco Hernández de Toledo (1514-1587), and writer Miguel de Cervantes (1547-1616). This concern with futurity is inspired by the Renaissance itself, a period defined by visions of the future, as well as by recent theorizing of temporality in Renaissance and Queer Studies. This transdisciplinary volume is at the cutting edge of the humanities, medical humanities, scientific discovery, and avant-garde artistic expression.ART / History / Renaissancebisacshartist.artistic rebirth.avant garde artistic expression.delminio.european imperialism.francisco hernandez de toledo.futurity.giulio camillo.global early modern world.humanities.intersections.inventor.leonardo da vinci.medical humanities.miguel de cervantes.naturalist.new science.philosopher.physician.polymaths.queer studies.renaissance.scientific discovery.ART / History / Renaissance.701.0509409031Villaseñor Black Charlene1962-edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtÁlvarez Mari-Tereedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910367592103321Renaissance Futurities2132029UNINA
