Historiography
The term Renaissance (rebirth, Rinascimento in Italian), as used to indicate the flourishing of artistic and scientific activities beginning in Italy in the mid 1300s, first appears in the Vite, published in 1550 by Italian artist Giorgio Vasari. It is the French word for the Italian rinascita, used by French historian Jules Michelet, and expanded upon by Swiss historian Jacob Burckhardt (both in the 1860s). Rebirth refers to both a rediscovery of ancient classical texts and learning, and to the widespread revitalization of European culture resulting from the application of this classical knowledge in the arts and sciences. Thus Renaissance can refer to this rebirth of classical learning and knowledge or to the ensuing rebirth of European culture.
