Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines essays written in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries designed to help young English gentlemen prepare for European tours. These trips were considered an essential element of a well-rounded education for the upper class as they provided valuable experiences in foreign languages, diplomacy, and Renaissance culture. The author discusses the evolution of these essays over time, beginning with the end of the sixteenth century when travel became fashionable to early 17th century when the growing availability of modern education at home diminished the importance of these tours. The book also touches upon the influence of the French academies, the rise of the Grand Tour, and the social and cultural significance of the Renaissance passion for self-expansion and education. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331286981_0
