What is the Renaissance?
The Renaissance was a period of great change in European history that lasted from the 1400s to the 1600s. It was preceded by the Middle Ages and led to major events of the Age of Enlightenment. In historical terms, the Renaissance is important because it led to a major shift in European thought and worldview. The Italian city-states acted as the cradle of the Renaissance, where it then spread to all of Europe by 1500 AD. The Renaissance gave us changes to European architecture, design, art, literature, math, science, and politics. Historians have identified several causes for the emergence of the Renaissance following the Middle Ages, including increased interaction between different cultures, the rediscovery of ancient Greek and Roman texts, the emergence of humanism, different artistic and technological innovations, and the impacts of conflict and death.
