Antiquity Renewed: Late Classical and Early Modern Themes

by VM Schmidt (Editor), Z von Martels (Editor), V. M. Schmidt (Editor)

Overview

This volume deals with similarities and correspondences between Late Antiquity (c. 300-600 AD) and the Renaissance (roughly after c. 1350). In both periods, the presence of two competing forces, the ancient classical and the Christian traditions, led to a constant dynamic of thought and creativity. The ten essays in this volume present new views on these issues in the fields of political philosophy, theology, law, literature, art, and architecture.
