When and where did the Renaissance begin
The
period that it was characterized by Europe’s Middle Ages . It is
characterization by scholars, artists, and scientists building on classical
Greek and Roman ideas to make new adventures in science and art. With the
invention of the printing press and reopening trade routes between China an
Europe, the world experienced economical and cultural growth. Also, the emphasis
on people individually.
Most if the people that were influential and thy showed and then so people might do some of the things that they might of done and fallow in there foot steps. And they were scholars they were the most educated people back then. So they could have taught more things to the people that have no money and still they could have taught so much to people that want to learn and become scholars like them.
Sando Bottlcellli was a painter from Florence, Italy. He showed some Roman myths in his paintings and he showed respect to the people. He was so important to us because he was one of the nicest artist and he had great paintings. The artists were influential because it was more realism then abstract. And they were important because he insured more artists to come out.
GUILLAUME DUFAY was a famous composer he was a chief musician at a school. He lived mostly in Cambria. He was very well educated in the most aspects of being a musician and was very well respected with others. He achieved writing dramatic cycles and simply ornamented hymns. I chose him because must have loved his work so much and his his great education.
Leone Battista Alberti he was a Italian author, poet, linguist, architect, philosopher, cryptographer, and general Renaissance polymath. He received the finest education in Italy to a nobleman. I chose him because he love poetry so much and he did so many things that he did in his life and they might have done so really fantastic things that could change the world. He was probable very kind to the people and the citizens of the country he lived in.
George Sarton wrote nine volume history of science and he wanted to complete it as well. He wanted to launch the formal history of math and science. He was nice to everyone, well I think. What I think that is that he had a great deal of good things that have happened in his time period and I chose him because ha was a great scientists and he so invented so many things to do in his research.
How the Renaissance affects us.
The Renaissance is important to us today because we wouldn’t have any art work like the “Last Supper.” And with all of the scientists back then if they weren’t there then half of our lives would be gone. And without everyone back then we wouldn’t even be herewith out them back then and if they wouldn’t be there we would be with out our family and friends and then half of our live would be gone or we wouldn’t even be here. DEAD.
