Produktbeschreibung
At least since the publication of Burckhardt s seminal study, the Renaissance has commonly been understood in terms of discontinuities. Seen as a radical departure from the intellectual and cultural norms of the Middle Ages, it has often been associated with the revival of classical Antiquity and the transformation of the arts, and has been viewed primarily as an Italian phenomenon. In keeping with recent revisionist trends, however, the essays in this volume explore moments of profound intellectual, artistic, and geographical continuity which challenge preconceptions of the Renaissance. Examining themes such as Shakespearian tragedy, Michelangelo s mythologies, Johannes Tinctoris view of music, the advent of printing, Burgundian book collections, and Bohemian renovatio, this volume casts a revealing new light on the Renaissance.
