Our Renaissance: Essays on the Reform and Revival of Classical Studies (1917)

Our Renaissance: Essays On The Reform And Revival Of Classical Studies (1917) is a collection of essays written by Henry Browne, an American classical scholar, that explores the revival of classical studies during the Renaissance period. The book discusses how the rediscovery of ancient Greek and Roman texts and ideas during the Renaissance led to a renewed interest in classical studies and a shift in intellectual and cultural values. Browne examines the impact of humanism, the development of printing, and the influence of prominent figures such as Petrarch and Erasmus on the revival of classical studies. He also discusses the role of universities and schools in promoting classical education, and the ways in which the study of classical languages and literature influenced other areas of knowledge, such as science and philosophy. Our Renaissance is a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the revival of classical studies and its impact on Western culture and intellectual history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
