Autor

With this 1860 classic, Swiss historian Carl Jacob Christoph Burckhardt (1818-97) revolutionized both the understanding of the Italian Renaissance and the field of cultural history. Departing from the traditional focus on political and military history, Burckhardt examined people's lives, including their religion, art, and literature.
