| | And it was equally to be anticipated that the Vatican would not reject a movement of reconciliation, akin to that whereby so many of the ancient usages had been long ago adapted to Christian ends. | | | An extraordinary enthusiasm for antiquity had set in, combined with boundless freedom of opinion, with a laxity of morals which has ever since given scandal to believers and unbelievers alike, and with a festal magnificence recalling the days and nights of Nero's "golden house". | | | A glance at the map will remind us of the striking fact that Christianity is bound up in space no less than in time with the Greek and Roman World. |

| | Nonetheless, the advent of the printing press (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printing_press) did allow for much wider distribution of scientific thought during the Renaissance than had been possible in the Middle Ages and so scientists throughout Europe were able to collaborate on works and exchange theories in a way that was not previously possible. | | | The Renaissance was a cultural movement and time period in the History of Europe, considered to mark the end of the Middle Ages. | | | Towards the end of the Renaissance, scientists increasingly began to reject Greek (and biblical) sources in favor of new discoveries. |

| | The Neoplatonists inherit the Augustinian and Boethian synthesis of Platonism with Christianity and many are avowed Augustinians. | | | Pletho also introduced the Italians to the notion that the philosophical systems of Plato and Aristotle were in conflict with one another; a large part of European thought during the Renaissance would involve spelling out this conflict. | | | This translation project, begun by Bessarion, would be completed a few decades later when Ficino undertook the herculean task of translating all of Plato's works into Latin. |

| | Emphasis on medieval renaissances tended to undermine a belief in the unique and distinctive qualities of the Italian Renaissance, and some historians of science, technology and economy even denied the validity of the term. | | | The later Renaissance was marked by a growth of bureaucracy, an increase in state authority in the areas of justice and taxation, and the creation of larger regional states. | | | Warfare was common, and death by pestilence and violence was frequent. |

| | Renaissance [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] |
| | After the fall of Constantinople in 1453 Renaissance gained a further impetus because of a number of Greek humanists who moved from Byzantium to Italy. | | | Traces of this revolt can be seen in Dante (1265- 1321), who, although thoroughly medieval in his sympathies, chose the Roman poet Virgil as his model, and who, in the vigour and magnificence of his own verse, was a striking contrast to his contemporaries and earlier medieval authors. | | | Renaissance is the name of the great intellectual and cultural movement of the revival of interest in classical culture that occurred in the fourteenth, fifteenth and sixteenth centuries -- a period which saw the transition from the Middle Ages to modern times. |

| | Leonardo is considered the paragon of Renaissance thinkers, engaged as he was in experiments of all kinds and having brought to his art a spirit of restless inquiry that sought to discover the laws governing diverse natural phenomena. | | | Central to the development of Renaissance art was the emergence of the artist as a creator, sought after and respected for his erudition and imagination. | | | Ancient art was revered, not only as an inspiring model but also as a record of trial and error that could reveal the successes of former great artists. |

| | This doctrine may be largely responsible for the popular opinion that men of the Renaissance were essentially worldly. | | | The influence of Plato and his Renaissance interpreters was by no means confined to the sonnet but extended to other forms of English poetry and even to the prose of the period. | | | From the standpoint not only of the artist but also of the critic, it would be no exaggeration to term this entire period THE AGE OF IDEALISM. |

| | Thus, the beginnings of Renaissance art in Italy should be recognizable by seeking out not only those artists who adopted motifs or borrowed models from antiquity, but also those who sought to represent the human figure and the material world more naturalistically than had their predecessors. | | | The most important architect of the High Renaissance, whose buildings were the first to be considered as having fully recaptured the grandeur of ancient Rome, was Bramante. | | | Throughout the 15th century (today usually designated the 'Early Renaissance'), Florentine artists were at the forefront of investigations into the representation of the natural world. |
