1) The Renaissance embraced the teachings of the classical world, while Middle Ages stuck to the Bible and commentary upon it.
2) The Renaissance did include the idea of observation as a means of learning about the world; the Middle Ages did not.
3) In the Middle Aged, wealth was defined through the possession of land. In the Renaissance, we again see the use of commodities (and money is a commodity!) as the primary means of trade.

a middle class to deal with evolving trade on land and sea(as in the middle ages no road or ocean passage was safe to travel because of brigandage)!!because of the renaissance, books in the abbeys and cloistured and protected church holdings were produced and disseminated between and throughout districts and protected religious enclaves!!!these religious groups educated their charges,monks and peasants in trades that benefited their burgeoning production of foodstuffs,wines,quarries and lumbering operations!!these were successful because they were based on self-sufficient roman(protected) villas!!!defensible and self-provided with everything necessary to exist as part of an empire or a family fortified against all comers roman or barbarian!!!the ability to retain knowledge for more than a generation required advanced education beyond a craft guild structure or a father-to-son education in just what would perpetuate the skills of a farmer,a blacksmith,a dresser of millstone,a maker of cloth,a fisherman's skills..etc!!death was always around the corner in the middle ages and few lived long enough to learn any skills or retain any amount of education at all!!!!but the benefits of husbandry and learning became so obvious into the renaissance that all knowledge ,writings available and skills developed in ancient times became highly revered and sought after...when the economic benefits were observed in widely scattered bastions of self-protected and evolving progress made possible by education acording to greek,latin/roman and oriental and african forms of skills and retained knowledges from writings,books,scrolls,texts and treatisies containing them!!we are still reclaiming this knowledge but are destoying it faster than it is found...e.i. the library at sarajevo..destroyed trying to kill and destroy their neighbors they wiped out the total repository of the knowledge and development of their entire culture and history...all reduced to ashes all of their own books,scrolls and historic text in bound leather and gold-leafed manuscripts the whole building a burned-out hollow shell!!!is the middle ages coming back or worse???

because of the fact the Renaissance began with the understanding of historical Greece (authors like Plato, Aristotle). The Romans based practically all their discovering on historical Greek expertise and coaching. And so whilst the societal subject allowed for a re-delivery, the beginning place exchange into already there in Italy extra beneficial than in the different usa in Europe. the different reason exchange into that although the Roman Catholic Church in Europe exchange into the worst criminal in the suppression of expertise, interior of its very own company it engaged in rigorous study and analytical questioning in concerns of faith. And, of direction, the Roman Catholic Church exchange into maximum effectual in Italy. lots of the 1st unique thinkers of the Renaissance in Italy, gained their psychological superiority in the educational device provided by utilising the Church. a typical occasion is Giordano Felipe Bruno. He exchange into finally burned on the stake by utilising the Church for his teachings in Philosophy, arithmetic, and Theology. And yet he discovered to think of for himself collectively as he exchange right into a pupil in a Church seminary interpreting to alter right into a clergyman. because of the fact the Roman Catholic Church grew to alter into weakened in different ecu international places, initiating with Germany (Martin Luther), the Renaissance unfold to different international places. because of the fact the Church saved its strangle-carry tightest in Italy, Italy misplaced its place because of the fact the customary source of the Renaissance by utilising the 17th century.
