The Renaissance

Spreading throughout the length and breadth of Europe, the Renaissance made an enduring impact on art and architecture, science, politics and law. How did the Renaissance put an end to the Middle Ages? Where did it begin and how did it spread? How did the rise of Islam in Europe influence the Renaissance? Rob Weinberg puts the big questions about this world-changing period to Professor Jerry Brotton of Queen Mary University of London. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
