More than ever before, the Renaissance stands out as one of the defining moments in world history. Between 1400 and 1600, European perceptions of society, culture, politics, and even humanity itself emerged in ways that continue to affect not only Europe but the entire world. In this wide-ranging exploration of the Renaissance, Jerry Brotton shows the period as a time of unprecedented intellectual excitement, cultural experimentation, and interaction on a global scale, alongside a darker side of religion, intolerance, slavery, and massive inequality of wealth and status.

The 16th century was a time of immense change across the globe. For many historians, it marks a massive shift in the way the world operated; it is often considered the beginning of modernity. We may regard the 16th century as the time of Shakespeare and the conquistadors, but women also played a powerful role in many of the major events around the world. In 10 Women Who Ruled the Renaissance, you will explore the lives of 10 extraordinary women who exemplified the spirit of the 1500s - an era dominated by adventure, discovery, and cross-cultural exchange.

In her insightful exploration of the Renaissance, Dame Emmeline Tanner highlights its defining trait a rebellion against authority and a celebration of individualism. This transformative period signifies not only the decline of the universal power of the Empire but also the fracturing of the World Church, giving rise to national churches. As the Churchs authority crumbled, the Renaissance seamlessly transitioned into the Reformation, marked by influential figures like Pope Alexander VI, Emperor Charles V, Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther, John Calvin, William the Silent, and the notorious ...

In this landmark study of Italy from the 14th through the early 16th centuries, Swiss historian Jacob Burckhardt chronicles the rise of Florence and Venice as powerful city-states, the breakup of the medieval worldview that came with the rediscovery of Greek and Roman culture, and the new emphasis on the role of the individual. All these, Burckhardt explains, went hand in hand with the explorations of science and the more naturalistic depiction of the world in art and literature.

The Spoils of Time is a concise history of the world in nine chapters, tracing the prehistoric beginnings of early man’s halting steps towards civilization and ending sometime around 1500. The scope is vast, with Wedgwood’s scholarship spanning all the continents. As the author states, her purpose was to create a continuous narrative of human history for her own pleasure and to find out for herself what, if any, interlacing relations might hold us together.

It was not until the tenth century that Christendom recognised Baghdad, Damascus, Cordoba, and subsequently Istanbul as the epicentre of a highly sophisticated Islamic civilisation. A dynamic civilisation rapidly developed from the intersection of Greek, Persian, and Arab cultures, which Europe would later draw upon more than it is willing to admit. The various Islamic empires that ascended and declined, along with their contributions to global civilisation, will be examined in the upcoming podcasts. These podcasts are motivated by the scholarly published works of the author himself.
