From the late fourteenth to the end of the sixteenth centuries, the elderly subject became a point of new social, medical, political, and literary attention on both sides of the Alps. A movement of secularization tended to dissociate old age from the Christian preparation for death, re-orienting the concept of aging around pragmatic matters such as health care, intergenerational relationships, and accrued insights one might wish to pass along. Such changes were accompanied by an increasing number of personal accounts of later life. 588 0 Print version record. 648 7 1450-1600|2fast 650 0 European literature|yRenaissance, 1450-1600|xHistory and criticism. 650 0 Aging in literature. 650 0 Aging|zEurope|xHistory. 650 0 Older people|zEurope|xHistory. 650 7 BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY|xLiterary.|2bisacsh 650 7 Aging.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00800293 650 7 Aging in literature.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00800359 650 7 European literature|xRenaissance.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01710967 650 7 Older people.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01199093 650 7 HISTORY / General.|2bisacsh 650 17 Ouderdom.|2gtt 651 7 Europe.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01245064 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 History.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|aSkenazi, Cynthia.|tAging gracefully in the Renaissance.|dLeiden : Brill, 2013|z9789004254664 |w(DLC) 2013027542|w(OCoLC)853452480 830 0 Medieval and Renaissance authors and texts ;|vv. 11. 914 ocn858861444 994 92|bCKE
