John Hale chronicles the emergence of a distinctly European identity, tracing how art, warfare, geography, and humanist philosophy converged to shape a civilization increasingly aware of its own boundaries and possibilities. With authoritative breadth, the work illustrates how Renaissance Europeans understood themselves and their world, drawing on an extraordinary range of primary sources — from paintings and maps to travel accounts and political treatises. The tone is both scholarly and deeply engaging, balancing meticulous research with vivid, accessible prose that brings the period to life. A landmark achievement in Renaissance studies, it remains an indispensable resource for anyone seeking to understand the intellectual and cultural foundations of the modern Western world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887935140059,"sku":"2026200007982-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/979b7720-7dab-4990-ae2f-87c5cf9f6853.png?v=1781750002","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200007982-secondhand-the-civilization-of-europe-in-the-renaissance","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
