Harvester Press, Hassocks, first edition, 1978. Cloth, 8vo,. 575 pp. The Continental Renaissance, 1500-1600 is concerned with the century of Ronsard and Ariosto, Rabelais and Machiavelli, Erasmus, Luther and Calvin. It was a period in which new ideas and new forms in art burgeoned to an unprecedented extent, and in which the modern world began to take recognizable shape. Nevertheless, the world of the sixteenth century is remote from ours in many ways and its literature cannot be fully understood unless the reader knows something of its historical background and of the climate of ideas in which it was produced. This information the volume is designed to supply. It is divided into six main sections: The Cultural and Historical Background, Poetry, Drama, Prose Fiction, The Literature of Ideas and Manners, and Popular Literature." - from the blurb. Very Good in slightly used dustwrapper.
