Renaissance in Gold

This call for papers targets a wide range of disciplinary fields (e.g. history, art history, heritage science, literature, philosophy). This peer-reviewed edited volume aims to understand the uses and meanings of Gold as it pervades all areas of European societies, on a methodologically restricted time-frame (1450-1550). It intends to move beyond traditional research, so as to map out the social and cultural dynamics of this precious and versatile material in Renaissance Europe.
