Management and Resolution of Conflict and Rivalries in Renaissance Europe

Edited by Jill Kraye, Marc Laureys and David A. Lines.

How were conflict and rivalries managed in the Renaissance and brought to a positive resolution? Ten English, two French and one Italian essay, which issuing from the Leverhulme International Network 'Renaissance Conflict and Rivalries: Cultural Polemics in Europe, c. 1300-c. 1650'. The overall aim of the network was to examine the various ways in which conflict and rivalries made a positive contribution to cultural production and change during the Renaissance. The present volume, which contains papers delivered at the third colloquium, draws that examination to a close by considering a range of different strategies deployed in the period to manage conflict and rivalries and to bring them to a positive resolution. The papers explore these developments in the context of political, diplomatic, social, institutional, religious, and art history.
