Interesting. In philosophy, "early modern" seems to refers to, essentially, the 17th and 18th centuries--after the Renaissance. --LMS

In history, 1648 (the Peace of Westphalia) is the lower bounds of straight Modernity. After that, the Modern. Anything before that can be debated as 'Early Modern'. I've seen 14th century Italy called "The foundations of early modern" something or other.
