The third volume in Susan Wise Bauer's lively and engaging narrative history series, this work follows The History of the Ancient World and The History of the Medieval World. Continuing in the same tradition of following history from a linear, global, and interconnected perspective, The History of the Renaissance World brings readers from the rediscovery of Aristotle to the conquest of Constantinople- - - 1100 to 1453. Weaving together literature, letters, and various accounts of events, readers will discover both the grand, epic events of history (The Crusader Kingdoms, the End of the Papal Monarchy) as well as the changes that affected the daily lives of individuals living during these times (the Great Famine in Europe, dislocation in Africa). Dozens of maps provide a clear geography of great events, while timelines give the reader an ongoing sense of the passage of years and cultural interconnection. 785 pages, hardcover with dust jacket.
