Description

This scholarly work presents a rigorous sociological examination of the Renaissance, exploring how grace operates across theological, anthropological, and aesthetic dimensions. The author builds on Max Weber's foundational work connecting capitalism to Protestant ethics, arguing that European tradition rests upon successive renascances extending from Minoan Crete through classical antiquity. By integrating gift-giving theory from Mauss with Simmel's analysis of sociability, alongside aesthetic considerations of beauty and gracefulness, the book provides a comprehensive framework for understanding Renaissance culture through a sociological lens. Part of Routledge's Advances in Sociology series, this volume challenges the conventional academic focus on Protestantism and modernity by repositioning the Renaissance as central to understanding social scientific inquiry into Western civilisation.

Key Features
