The Renaissance-the period of western European history from roughly 1400 to 1600- was an extraordinary time, a time when art, literature, music, philosophy, and education took on new life. Reaching back to the literature and learning of ancient Greece and Rome, Renaissance people began to create unique cultures of their own. Many Europeans developed a love of art and learning. Three major developments marked the period: the invention of the printing press, the great voyages of exploration, and the Protestant Reformation. Kathryn Hinds' perceptive overview of the era covers these developments and more. In lively detail, she describes the everyday life of peasants and princes, courtiers and clerics, adults and children, women and men. Recipes, gorgeous artwork, poems, and stories enhance the highly informative text.
