　　The Renaissance holds an undying place in our imagination, its

great heroes still our own, from Michelangelo and Leonardo to Dante

and Chaucer. This period of profound evolution in European thought

is credited with transforming the West from medieval to modern and

producing the most astonishing outpouring of artistic creation the

world has ever known. But what was it? In this masterly work, the

incomparable Paul Johnson tells us. He explains the economic,

technological, and social developments that provide a backdrop to

the age’s achievements and focuses closely on the lives and works

of its most important figures. A commanding short narrative of this

vital period, The Renaissance is also a universally profound

meditation on the wellsprings of innovation.

媒体评论

　　“This wee book packs more information, insight, and historical

perspective than do most volumes many times its length.”

—Forbes

　　“Abound[s] in interesting detail and idiosyncratic judgment.”

—The New York Times

　　“Mr. Johnson does not reduce the art and literature of this

immensely rich period to mere by-products of the European economy.

. . . His concise and entertaining survey is a reminder that the

most sublime accomplishments of civilization also depend on the

mundane.” —The Wall Street Journal

　　“[Johnson’s] reputation for capacious erudition precedes him, and

it is no surprise that he turns in a vibrant summary of the era’s

eruption of art.” —Booklist
