The four volumes of the 'Comparative History of European Language Literatures' on the Renaissance embody a real challenge in the field of the humanities, and comparatism. It is a question of observing, analyzing and describing series of phenomena that occur at different distances from one another in time and space; yet mutually relevant. It is the nature of this relevance that the Renaissance sub-series of the 'Comparative History of European Language Literature' seeks to describe by analysing, in different European countries, and gradually around the world, the manifestations of what it is agreed to call it the Renaissance. Certainly, in different countries of Europe - but not only in Europe only - there was a keen awareness, and then an increasingly in-depth knowledge, of their ancient past (and perhaps rather ancient, since the notion of antiquity is often linked to geographically well-defined backgrounds); and an enthusiastic rediscovery of this past.
