Reseña del libro "The History of the Renaissance (en Inglés)"

In 1417, a Florentine book hunter named Poggio Bracciolini climbed into a monastery cellar and found a thousand-year-old poem claiming the universe was made of atoms and the gods didn't care about human affairs. Within decades, that manuscript reached some of Europe's most influential minds. This book follows what happened next across two and a half centuries: painters learning to render real depth, scholars trading authority for direct observation, and a printing press, ocean voyages, and religious rupture that remade Europe. Inside, you'll find: How a tax return exposed a fortune. Florence's 1427 catasto survey found that the wealthiest one percent of households controlled roughly a quarter of the city's taxable wealth — the money behind Medici patronage. A dome with no scaffold holding it up. Brunelleschi's dome spans 144 feet and weighs an estimated 37,000 metric tons of brick and stone, built with no wooden support, standing nearly six centuries later. The year two ancient authorities fell at once. In 1543, Andreas Vesalius published an anatomy based on dissecting bodies himself, not reading Galen aloud — the same year Copernicus put the sun, not the Earth, at the universe's center. Two hundred seventy men set out. Eighteen came back. Magellan's expedition to circle the globe started with five ships. Ten founders, a thousand members, sixteen years. The Jesuits grew that fast after 1540. Germany's peasant uprisings alone killed well over a hundred thousand people in the same century's religious wars. No background in art, science, or political history is assumed; terms are explained as they appear. The people in this book didn't know they were living through something historians would later name. They just tested whether what they'd been told was true.
