Why is Leonardo da Vinci known as a “Renaissance Man?”

rusak2 [61]

Leonardo da Vinci was known as a "Renaissance Man" because he contributed to it. He encouraged the new way of thinking and helped compute the many scientifical advancements during the Renaissance Period. He was a big believer in proving ideas and concepts with science, and not just letting the Roman Catholic Chruch control his beliefs and the science behind it. He had a big role in the Enlightenment.

So, I would say "C" is the best answer. His interests de coincide with many Renaissance happenings and beliefs.

I hope this helps!
