 | | Renaissance and Reformation
This sweeping, detailed, and strikingly beautiful new reference set (one of Booklist magazine's "Twenty Best Bets for Student Researchers") examines a highly significant period in European history, the four-hundred-year span from 1300 to 1700, with primary focus on the critical three centuries from 1350 to 1650. These centuries begin with the structures and civilization of the High Middle Ages entering a gradual decline. As the people of Europe rebound from the twin catastrophes of plague and warfare, they create a range of socities that seek to incorporate the heritage and learning of their classical past and to forge a fresh understanding of the human being's place in the world. This new outlook--humanism--became the foundation for all present-day societies of the West.
