The Renaissance period originally started from
the 14th to the 17th century, immediately following the
Middle Ages and later spreading to the rest of Europe from its birthplace in
Italy. This era is well suited to fill the gap in between modern era and Middle
Ages. Unlike the Middle Ages, the Renaissance was particular on the classical
forms of art, literature and music.
This period was the time of enlightenment and
perhaps the most romanticized period in history, a time when chivalry was king
and knowledge was the power. As the society and economy changed, new ideas
began to popup.
The
causes which lead to Renaissance:-
·
Increased trade with
Asia and other regions.
·
Rise of rich and powerful
merchants.
·
Increased desire for
technical knowledge.
