The Renaissance can be considered as the philosophical movement that most influenced modern society today.
<h3 /><h3>What was the Renaissance?</h3>
A movement that emerged in Europe in the fourteenth century that revolutionized society in political, artistic and cultural terms, by establishing reason, humanism and ethics as drivers of thought and behavior rather than religion.
Therefore, the renaissance marked the transition from the middle ages to the modern, bringing enlightenment ideas that helped in the development of science and technology, impacting the development of today's society.
Renaissance humanism was a revival in the study of classical antiquity, at first in Italy and then spreading across Western Europe in the 14th, 15th, and 16th centuries. During the period, the term humanist (Italian: umanista) referred to teachers and students of the studio humanitatis—meaning the humanities including grammar, rhetoric, history, poetry, and moral philosophy. It was not until the 19th century that this began to be called humanism instead of the original humanities, and later by the retronym Renaissance humanism to distinguish it from later humanist developments.
