Everyday Life in Renaissance Times
Description
This book provides information about the Renaissance not readily available elsewhere. Its subject--absolutely essential to an understanding of that great age--is the social background of the Renaissance. Here is every aspect of daily life in Italy, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and England form 1450 to 1650. Ships and seamen, court life, the merchants, the common man, travel, witchcraft, war, the Inquisition, science, alchemy, printing, education, and the world of religion are some of the areas of Renaissance life that are thoroughly covered to give the reader a sharp and penetrating picture of the times. These studies are supplemented by more than 100 drawings taken from contemporary sources and reproductions of paintings of the time. Everyday Life in Renaissance Times will be invaluable to general readers, as well as to students.
