Renaissance Humanism

Renaissance Humanism was a cultural and intellectual movement that emerged in Europe during the Renaissance period, which spanned from the 14th to the 17th century. The central idea of Humanism was a focus on human values, potential, and achievements, as well as the celebration of the human form and individualism.

The movement was characterized by an emphasis on classical learning, including the study of ancient Greek and Roman literature, philosophy, and art. Humanists believed that knowledge and education were the keys to personal and social development, and they emphasized the importance of critical thinking, questioning authority, and promoting secularism.
