(Springer) Einstein's 1915 theory of gravitation (General Relativity), is now considered one of the pillars of modern physics. It contributes to our understanding of cosmology and of fundamental interactions between particles. But that was not always the case. In a special issue of EPJ H just published, historians of science and physicists share their views on the process, especially the 'Renaissance' of General Relativity, following progressive transformation of the theory into a bona fidae physics theory.
