what's so important about the renaissance period?

Question

I have to research about the renaissance period as my holiday assignment so can you please help me with it? I'm totally clueless about the renaissance period.

NOTE: I'm asking you to help me by providing me some useful websites or telling me more about the renaissance period ( history etc) not ordering you to do my homework.

I just want to know more about the history of the renaissance period, why is it important to us now, some famous authors,novelists,playwrights,poets of the renaissance period.

THANKS.

Answer 1

try wikipedia.org, for any questions you have about the renaissance. but as a hint, the renaissance represented a major attempt at reviving culture, such as painting, literature, and sculpture that had been dormant during the middle ages. it also would also begin some great thinking about the political and religious science of the day.

Answer 2

The importance of the renaissance (which means re-birth) is that Europe started to look forward and develop it's own ides, rather than thinking it was inferior to either the Romans or Greeks.
