Title: The Other Renaissance: From Copernicus to Shakespeare Author: Paul Strathern Narrator: Roger May Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 59 minutes Release date: May 4, 2023 Genres: Europe Publisher's Summary: It is generally accepted that the European Renaissance began in Italy. However, a historical transformation of similar magnitude also took place in northern Europe at the same time. This 'Other Renaissance' was initially centred on the city of Bruges in Flanders (modern Belgium), but its influence was soon being felt in France, the German states, England, and even in Italy itself. Following a sequence of major figures, including Copernicus, Gutenberg, Luther, Catherine de Medici, Rabelais, van Eyck and Shakespeare, Paul Strathern tells the fascinating story of how this 'Other Renaissance' played as significant a role as the Italian renaissance in bringing our modern world into being.
