Reviews
The Globe on Paper is a superb examination of a collection of texts not usually studied together. In this tight, coherent study centered on sixteenth-century writers' attempts to compose unified narratives out of what at first blush seemed a plurality of pasts, Marcocci offers a valuable reinterpretation of some well-known sixteenth-century histories, presenting a new way of reading the subgenre of Renaissance histories of the world, while elucidating the creativity and innovation that characterized the writing of history during the "open Renaissance" of the sixteenth century., "The Globe on Paper is a superb examination of a collection of texts not usually studied together.

Synopsis
How did writing histories of the world change after the discovery of America? Focusing on a set of case studies, this book explores creative works by Renaissance authors who made use of new sources and materials to produce narratives about the globe, working across different cultures and languages., The age of exploration exposed the limits of available universal histories. Everyday interactions with cultures and societies across the globe brought to light a multiplicity of pasts which proved difficult to reconcile with an emerging sense of unity in the world. Among the first to address the questions posed by this challenge were a handful of Renaissance historians. On what basis could they narrate the history of hitherto unknown peoples? Why did the Bible and classical works say nothing about so many visible traces of ancient cultures? And how far was it possible to write histories of the world at a time of growing religious division in Europe and imperial rivalry around the world? A study of the cross-fertilization of historical writing in the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, The Globe on Paper reconstructs a set of imaginative accounts worked out from Mexico to the Moluccas and Peru, and from the shops of Venetian printers to the rival courts of Spain and England. The pages of this book teem with humanists, librarians, missionaries, imperial officials, as well as forgers and indigenous chroniclers. Drawing on information gathered--or said to have been gathered--from eyewitness reports, interviews with local inhabitants, ancient codices, and material evidence, their global narratives testify to an unprecedented broadening of horizons which briefly flourished before succumbing to the forces of imperial and religious reaction., The age of exploration exposed the limits of available universal histories.

    The seller was very responsive and answered me on a timely matter. The product itself came in its packaging and was new, not used at all. The packaging was not beat up or anything, safely delivered to my mailbox. No mix ups and zero stress with delivery. The price for the product is completely understandable for the product. I really appreciate the seller and I am very happy to have purchased through this seller. Completely trustable!

    Leaving positive feedback because 1) item was packed well & arrived as described 2) seller did give partial refund when subsequent price dropped below org purchase price. 3) communication was quick However, there was a downside to this transaction -item listed as in-stock but ended up waiting nearly a month for them to get it from their distributer then ship it to me (bought June 29th, arrived around July 21). Auction said 12-15 days. Better clarity would have prevented lot of frustration
