About The Book
This volume, edited by Ruggiero, brings together some of the most distinguished Renaissance scholars to offer fresh perspectives and new directions for Renaissance scholarship. Overturning the traditional view of the Renaissance as a period of European cultural triumph, it highlights both the positive and negative aspects of the era. Rather than focusing solely on Europe, the book broadens the scope by considering a world perspective and examining the Renaissance from multiple angles.
The work goes beyond the cultural elite, incorporating perspectives on gender, sex, violence, and cultural history, providing a more nuanced and complex view of the period. This book will appeal to readers interested in reevaluating the Renaissance and understanding its broader implications in a global context. It sets a new agenda for Renaissance studies, offering a comprehensive and thought-provoking analysis.
