Beschreibung:
Jane L. Stevens Crawshaw is a social and cultural historian of health and the environment in Renaissance Italy. She is Senior Lecturer in Early Modern European History at Oxford Brookes University. Between 2012 and 2017, she held a Leverhulme Early Career Research Fellowship, called 'Cleaning Up Renaissance Italy: environment, space, and society'. Before arriving at Oxford Brookes, she taught at the University of St Andrews and held a post-doctoral research fellowship with the Society for Renaissance Studies (the Rubinstein Fellowship). She received her PhD and MPhil from the University of Cambridge (Downing College) and her MA (hons) in History from the University of Edinburgh.
Cleaning Up Renaissance Italy takes us to the streets, bridges, and waterways of Renaissance Genoa and Venice, exploring how environmental management -- street cleaning, water provision, waste disposal, and reuse -- relates to cultural ideals, individual and collective behaviour, political reputations, and social identities.
