It discusses various influential figures and themes, such as exploration, natural sciences, and the appreciation of beauty in nature, setting the stage for a comprehensive understanding of the period. The opening of this volume introduces the theme of exploration, focusing on the journeys undertaken by Italians during the Renaissance. It highlights renowned explorers like Columbus and the transformative effect of expeditions on Italian thought and culture. Burckhardt discusses the broader impact of the Renaissance, including the reconnecting of Italy with ancient learning and the subsequent curiosity that drove explorers to discover new worlds.
