具体描述
The Renaissance burst forth in all its glory around 1500 and spread throughout Europe. This period of great creativity and productivity in the arts and sciences is illuminated in this book through the lives of more than ninety of its illustrious intellectuals, artists, literary figures, scientists, and rulers. Included are such major figures as Lorenzo and Catherine de’ Medici, Leonardo da Vinci, Charles V, Luther, Columbus, Copernicus, and St. Teresa of Ávila, as well as lesser-known characters such as Antonio Rinaldeschi, “gambler and blasphemer”; Louise Labé, “the jousting poetess”; Dick Tarlton, “the queen’s comedian”; Veronica Franco, “courtesan and wordsmith”; and Catena, “rustler, robber, and bandit chief.”
Each section in this volume marks a chronological stage in Europe’s rebirth, tying the period’s intellectual currents to its political and social concerns and setting the context for the individual biographies.

评分五百年来，列奥纳多·达·芬奇身上被赋予了太多的光环与标签。他是和拉斐尔、米开朗基罗并称的“文艺复兴三杰”，他的《蒙娜丽莎》和《最后的晚餐》几乎家喻户晓，他也由此几乎成为迄今为止人类历史上最伟大的画家。他又是“文艺复兴人”和“博学家”的典型代表，他众所周知的...
评分文艺复兴发端于14世纪意大利，后扩展至欧洲，是一次知识碰撞与精神的空前解放，具有不可比拟的历史性意义。它是一次历史性的转变，从此打破传统的思想禁锢，将理性的思考和思想推向了新的高度，同时，文艺复兴也是对旧文化、旧制度的一次前所未有的抨击。作为一次思想文化的变...
评分初看到书名，就被深深吸引了。“文艺复兴人”，从构词上说就很有新意，文艺复兴明明是个时代，后面加个“人”，一下子变得立体而生动起来。英文主书名为Renaissance People,副书名为 lives that shaped the modern age，更是凸显了人的价值，每个个体生命的价值。 文艺复兴是一...
评分一直在想，当我们了解一个时代的时候，什么是最重要的。曾经有一段迷恋小历史，后来终于想明白，自己迷恋的其实不过是历史时间背后，那一个个鲜活的人，在大历史的滚滚浪潮中，这些人在做什么，在想什么，又如何推动了历史，或者给历史下了一个绊子，这就是我看《文艺复兴人》...
