Dawn of the Modern Age

Luigino Bruni ()

Chapter 4 in The Genesis and Ethos of the Market, 2012, pp 57-69 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract We may interpret the Middle Ages as a process in which individuality slowly emerged at the expenses of the communitas antiqua. This process unfolded rather harmoniously until the Tuscan civil humanism in the early fifteenth century, but later exploded in a rapid and irreversible escalation resulting in the Renaissance, the Reformation, the seventeenth century and the Enlightenment. The rise of modern political economy may be situated at some point along this lengthy cultural process.
