Description:
Geneva: Librairie Droz, 2013. First Edition. Paperback. Octavo; 391pp. Index. Cream wrappers with color illustration to front cover. A Fine copy. This work, the result of an international symposium held in Dijon in March 2012, reflects on the theme of the native region among the writers of the Renaissance, whether they write in Latin or French. It proposes to consider the image that these have left of their "small homeland", as Cicero called Arpinum. While interested in authors from Southern Europe (the Mantouan Battista Spagnoli, the Spaniard Juan Luis Vives), it makes the best of the northern writers, known or lesser known, from various countries (Flemish, German, Scottish, French...). The communications identify the characteristics of a northern humanism which, by its regional Anchorage, asserts itself in opposition or rivalry with the humanism of the South, and analyses the different modalities of the description of the Natal region: often commendation, more rarely critical, it is sometimes…

Description:
Librairie Droz. Very Good. 2013. Paperback. 2600017151 . Some scuffing/staining to front wrap. Else book is fine. ; This collection, based on an international conference that took place at the University of Dijon in March 2012, addresses the theme of the native region as it appears in the works of Renaissance authors whose languages of expression were Latin and French. The contributors offer several reflections on the image that these authors left of their little homeland, to borrow Ciceros affectionate description of Arpinum. After an initial discussion of authors from southern Europe such as Mantuas Battista Spagnoli and Spains Juan Luis Vivès, the volume takes as its central object the Humanist writers of northern Europe, both the famous and the more obscure, from a variety of national origins (Flemish, German, Scottish, French
). The chapters reveal several prominent characteristics of a northern humanism which, by articulating a…
