Spuren Der Gelehrsamkeit: Bilder Und Objekte Von Humanisten

By (author) Lothar Schmitt





This book is currently unavailable. Enquire to check if we can source a used copy


| book description |

Humanism generated not only intellectually inspired texts but at the same time, a culture of things. The scholars of the early modern era who developed Humanism looked back to ancient models to build a sense of community within a like-minded group. This volume looks closely at Humanists living north of the Alps and explores how they came to be the creators of an independent material culture. It focuses on writers such as Erasmus of Rotterdam and artists such as Albrecht Durer while also addressing a broad range of concerns that occupied the Humanist imagination, from marriage to death.
