"Capital & Finance in the Age of the Renaissance" is a seminal study of the economic forces that shaped early modern Europe. Richard Ehrenberg provides an exhaustive analysis of the rise of modern capitalism, tracing the development of financial institutions and the accumulation of wealth during the fourteenth through sixteenth centuries. The work focuses significantly on the powerful banking dynasties of the era, most notably the Fugger family of Augsburg, whose financial influence extended across the continent and funded the ambitions of emperors and popes alike.

By examining the transition from medieval trade practices to the sophisticated credit and exchange systems of the Renaissance, Ehrenberg illuminates how the concentration of capital paved the way for the modern global economy. The book explores the growth of public debt, the emergence of stock exchanges, and the impact of large-scale international finance on the political landscape of the time. This comprehensive historical account remains an essential resource for students and scholars seeking to understand the origins of the financial world and the pivotal role that money played in the cultural and political shifts of the Renaissance period.
