Helen Hackett

Early Modern Exchanges (eBook, ePUB)

Dialogues Between Nations and Cultures, 1550-1750

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The culture of early modern England and Europe was richly hybrid, forged through interactions between diverse nations and language communities, and through new encounters with the wider world beyond Europe. Ranging from the neo-Latin poetry of an English author to the Spanish plays of a nun in the New World, from royal portraits exchanged in diplomatic negotiations to travelling companions in the Ottoman Empire, this multidisciplinary volume presents exciting new research on early modern exchanges.
