Description

Renaissance Thought is a fascinating collection of essays on the Renaissance, focussing on humanism and thought. The concept of the Renaissance has always been challenging to define.

Knowledge of Renaissance thought illuminates other key aspects of Renaissance culture such as philology, political thought and scholastic and platonic philosophy.

Reviews

'It is hard to think of a better introduction to recent scholarship of Renaissance thought and as such it should be required reading for all students of the Renaissance.' - Renaissance Journal
