"Humanism and the Renaissance," (Problems in European Civilization.) by Zachary Sayre Schiffman (Editor) and Michael A. Bond is a wonderful up-to-date collection of essays from top-notch historians on the current historical debates surrounding the Humanism and the Renaissance era. Books from the PROBLEMS IN EUROPEAN CIVILIZATION SERIES are designed for upper-level undergraduate and graduate level European history courses. That being said, this book is not an introductory text. The authors of the articles go directly into their subjects, without providing any significant background information. Therefore, you need to have an historical base level of knowledge to work from. Nonetheless, it is an excellent tool for students, scholars and general readers of modern European history. The text is best used in class discussions and debate. An excellent representation of European historical scholarship.
