In what ways was the renaissance a continuation of medieval times?​
Mashutka [201]

The Renaissance was the ending period of Medieval times when societies were already opening and able to create a period of cultural, artistic, political and economic rebirth from the dark ages of Medieval times.

During this period religion was put aside and philosophy, literature, and art became the center of the knowledge, which was also a change from the Medieval period.

We can say that the Renaissance is a part of the Middle Ages because it is the end of it before the modern-day civilization.

You could write your paragraph about the fact that Hammurabi’s code shows evidence of laws. Or the fact that this implies currency or some sort of trade. This also heavily implies a class system which I feel would be easy to write about.
