Description - Italian Renaissance by John D. Clare

This text looks at what it was like to live during the Italian Renaissance, between 1490 and 1527. Drawing inspiration from the classical past, arts, politics and ideologies, all things underwent a "rebirth". The book considers how, where and why the Renaissance came about, the rise and spread of humanist ideals, the life of the Court, the arts and patronage, the spread of printing, wars, the power of the papacy, the opening up of the New World, the sacking of Rome, the survival of Venice and the legacy of the Renaissance. Designed to be used for the supplementary study unit at Key Stage 3, the book includes a map and a timeline.
