Download or read book Sixteenth Century Europe written by Richard MacKenney and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 1993-09-15 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few periods of a hundred years have held the imagination as much as the period 1500-1600. At least four great themes - Renaissance, Reformation, Counter-Reformation and Expansion - vie for dominance. The decisive cultural theme of the fifteenth century - classical revival in Italy - had spread and diversified, the social structures of the Ancien Regime were yet to solidify. This study examines the symptons of expansion - population growth, adventure overseas, new voyages of the imagination - and the areas of conflict - the world and the spirit, the public and private spheres, elite and popular cultures - and argues that spiritual quest and intellectual curiosity had the same cultural roots.
Download or read book The Transformation of Europe 1300 1600 written by David Nicholas and published by Bloomsbury Academic. This book was released on 1999-04-30 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive survey of European history between 1300 and 1600 challenges conventional vision of Europe that divides the world between the late-medieval and early modern periods, emphasizing the distortion involved in that construction. Important changes toward "modernity" are evident, the book argues, as early as the fourteenth century; only in religious history does there appear to be some justification for retaining the traditional notion that "modern age" began with Martin Luther, though even in that arena the institutional break of the Protestants with Rome cannot conceal fundamental continuity of expression and attitude.
