CURRENT CULTURE & HISTORY OF THE ITALIAN RENAISSANCE

Everyone has probably heard of the Renaissance Period in history. It was a time where advances were made in many different forms. Architecture, art, music, writing, science and other areas had some of the greatest advances. While we think about Europe as the leader in the renaissance time period, in reality the beginning occurred in Italy.

The Italian Renaissance was the forerunner of the advances in the rest of Europe. The Italian Renaissance began in the 14th Century and continued to the 17th Century. This period of time took us from the middle ages and helped transition us to modern times. It was a very productive and interesting time in history.

During the Italian Renaissance, people such as Leonardo Da Vinci, Sandro Botticelli, Michelangelo, Niccolo Machiavelli and many others helped contribute to the world in various areas.

We have collected some informative resources that we believe can be useful in learning more about the Italian Renaissance and the accomplishments.
