Works on the Concept of a Renaissance and Golden Age (9 items)

Discussion on the terms 'Renaissance' and 'Golden Age' can be found in a number ofplaces.  Several articles and other sources discussing these terms (or the civilisations towhich they have been applied) have been mounted on the NOW Content page for thiscourse.  

In addition, you could look at works which discuss civilisations that are generally thoughtto have had a 'Golden Age' or 'Renaisance' and look at how these terms are being used inthese contexts. The abovementioned works on the Carolingian Empire (shown directlyabove) are a starting point.  A sample of works on the so-called 'Twelfth CenturyRenaissance' are supplied below.  Spain, for example, is often described to have had a'Golden Age' so it is worth considering what is meant by this term when historians employit.
