The English Elizabethan Era is one of the most fascinating periods in the History of England. The Elizabethan Era is named after the greatest Queens of England - Queen Elizabeth I. The Elizabethan Era is not only famous for the Virgin Queen but also for the era itself - Great Explorers, such as Sir Francis Drake and Walter Raleigh. The era of the very first Theatres in England - William Shakespeare, the globe Theatre and Christopher Marlowe! The people of the era - the Famous Figures who featured in the history of this era such as the Queen's love Robert Dudley, the sinister Dr. John Dee, the intrigues of the spy-master Sir Francis Walsingham and the Queen's chief advisor Sir William Cecil (Lord Burghley). Religion - Politics - Executions - Crime and Punishment all played their part in the Elizabethan era! And so did the commoners!

Um, some of the people that some people listed are not considered Renaissance, so please be careful. Joan of Arc, arguably Isabella, and some of the others are Medieval.

Since the Renaissance is primarily a Italian phenomenon (though the rest of Europe did have a "Renaissance," like England's which started about 150 years later), here are my five:

Leonardo da Vinci
Machiavelli
Lorenzo de Medici
Michelangelo
Raphael
