Renaissance

Historians consider the Renaissance to be the beginning of modern history. The name renaissance, comes from the french equivalent of the italian word rinascita, which literally means "rebirth" it describes the revival of interest in classical literature and the classical ideals experimented in European culture during the 15th y 16th centuries. European scholars became favoured intellectual freedom studying the world around them. The renaissance began in northern Italy and then spread through Europe it was preceded by the Middle Ages and followed by the Reformation.

According to the usual description, the Italian Renaissance on the 15th century, spreaded through the rest of Europe, and represented a reconnection of the west with classical antiquity, the absorption of knowledge—particularly mathematics and astronomy from the Arabs, the return of experimentaion, the focus on the importance of living well in the present (e.g. humanism), an explosion of the dissemination of knowledge brought on by printing and the creation of new techniques in art, poetry and architecture which led to a radical change in the style, and substance of the arts and letters. Outstanding Italian humanists of that epoch visited Byzantium in order to learn Greek and to buy old manuscripts, saved from pillages, conflagrations, and devastation of the invaded country. Many Greek texts were brought from Constantinople. Europe was ransacked for copies of the long unused Latin classics and copyists multiplied them. Libraries were founded, and schools for the study of both Greek and Latin in their classic forms were opened at Rome, Mautua, Verona, and many other towns This period, in this view, represents Europe emerging from a long period as a backwater, and the rise of commerce and exploration. After the fall of Constantinople in 1453 the Renaissance gained a further impetus due to a number of Greek humanists who moved from Byzantium to Italy. In 1462 the Platonic Academy was opened in Florence under the patronage of Cosimo de' Medici who would encourage artist in all disciplines icluding Michel Angel who studied there.

Italian cities such as Naples, Venice, and Genoa became centers of trade between Europe and the Middle East. Arab scholars preserved the writings of the ancient Greeks in their libraries. When the Italian cities traded with the Arabs, ideas were exchanged along with goods. These ideas, preserved from the ancient past, served as the basis of the Renaissance. There was an open minde to foreing ideas. The Italian Renaissance is often labeled as the beginning of the "modern" epoch.

This is a very important time for the Fine Arts and the artist, there is a proliferation of new schools in Italy, they search for perfection, developing perspective and aerial perspective in color by Leonardo Da Vince; we see the birth of Ateliers as schools of paintings such as of Giorgione, Raphael, Leonardo, Bellini, and Michael Angelo, and the Flemish school in the Netherlands. They separate form the anonymity of the craft and become professionals in its own right. Renaissance artists are the first to be regarded as professionals. They start signing thier works and achieve a new status in society.

Multiple Renaissances

During the last quarter of the 20th century many scholars took the view that the Italian Renaissance was perhaps only one of many such movements. This is in large part due to the work of historians like Charles H. Haskins (1870–1937), who made a convincing case for a Renaissance of the 12th century, as well as by historians arguing for a Carolingian Renaissance. Both of these concepts are now widely accepted by the scholarly community at large; as a result, the present trend among historians is to discuss each so-called renaissance in more particular terms, e.g., the Italian Renaissance, the English Renaissance, etc. This terminology is particularly useful because it eliminates the need for fitting The Renaissance into a chronology that previously held that it was preceded by the Middle Ages and followed by the Reformation, which many believe to be inaccurate. The entire period is now often replaced by the term "Early Modern". (See periodisation, Lumpers and splitters)

Other periods of cultural rebirth have also been termed a renaissance, such as the San Francisco Renaissance or the Harlem Renaissance.

Our modern era with the invention of the internet brings ideas of a New renaissance, being the internet as important as the printed press was in the times of Guttemberg, now we have information at hand and our world has becomed bombarded by imagery. One can but wonder how this will influence future generations. The worls has become small and now a days the facility to adquiere knowledge and trade should influence the modern man.
