The authors engage in an interpretative conversation with thinkers such as Jacob Burckardt, Ernst Cassirer, Eugenio Garin, Paul Oskar Kristeller, whose works have influenced critical discourse on modernity and Renaissance Humanism over the last one hundred and fifty years. The studies presented in this collection contribute to this discussion from a variety of perspectives: scientific, theological, political, and literary. The result is a multifaceted illumination of the intellectual history of the Italian Renaissance.Brill's Studies in Intellectual History216.Italian literatureHistory and criticismRenaissanceItalyItalyCivilization1268-1559Italian literatureHistory and criticism.Renaissance850.9/002Moudarres Andrea1663273Moudarres Christiana Purdy1663274MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910825890003321New worlds and the Italian renaissance4020458UNINA
