This intellectual history addresses and reconnects current concerns among American Continental philosophers and Renaissance scholars (and their European counterparts) in the aftermath of the postmodern moment. Continental philosophy, the product of an almost exclusive alliance between French and German thought, recently began to reconsider the anti-Cartesian stance that it has taken since 1947, the year in which Heidegger s Letter on Humanism was written, at least overtly, as a response to Sartre s Existentialism is a Humanism. Rubini integrates this founding conversation with the tradition of Italian philosophy, a neglected brand of Continental philosophy that climaxed in Eugenio Garin s Italian Humanism (also in 1947), a text that reshaped postwar Renaissance studies on both sides of the Atlantic. Rubini proposes we see this as a neglected three-way conversation, one that he shows through archival research and a close reading of neglected sources was always there."
