This is "The Swerve: How the World Became Modern" by Stephen Greenblatt (translated by Junji Kono, Chikuma Gakugei Bunko). This book is an intellectual non-fiction work that explores how the modern worldview was established, starting with a manuscript—Lucretius' "On the Nature of Things"—accidentally discovered in a monastery in 1427 by the Renaissance humanist Poggio Bracciolini. As the original title, "The Swerve: How the World Became Modern," suggests, it vividly depicts the process by which ancient ideas such as atomism, contingency, and pleasure "swerved" from the medieval Christian worldview, becoming a turning point towards modernity, from the intersection of literary history, intellectual history, and the history of books. The author is a leading literary scholar representing New Historicism. While maintaining academic rigor, the narrative is clear and accessible, making it suitable for those interested in: ・Renaissance studies ・Intellectual history/history of classical reception ・History of books and the dissemination of knowledge ・Literary theory It is a content that can withstand humanities reading at the graduate level. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize. With obi. Please check the condition in the photos.
