A Cultural History of Peace presents an authoritative survey from ancient times to the present. The set of six volumes covers over 2500 years of history, charting the evolving nature and role of peace throughout history.

This volume, A Cultural History of Peace in the Renaissance, explores peace in the period from 1450 to 1648. As with all the volumes in the illustrated Cultural History of Peace set, this volume presents essays on the meaning of peace, peace movements, maintaining peace, peace in relation to gender, religion and war and representations of peace.

A Cultural History of Peace in the Renaissance is the most authoritative and comprehensive survey available on peace in the early modern era.

Isabella Lazzarini is Professor of History at the University of Molise, Italy. She is the co-editor, along with Andrea Gamberini, of The Italian Renaissance State (2014).
