Renaissance

renaissance

The wealthiest and most powerful citizens in the Italian city-states have been patronizing artists and scholars who are breathing new life into the classical ideals and aesthetics of their Greek and Roman forebears. As a cultural movement, the Renaissance has already had a profound impact on the literature, art, philosophy, and music of our region. Renaissance Humanism has developed into a fully-formed intellectual tradition ready to permeate all aspects of society; A true Renaissance Humanist is an expert in everything from politics and philosophy to art, textual analysis, music, and architecture.

New ideals for rulers — as well as those who are ruled — are spreading as quickly as printing presses can distribute copies.

Renaissance ideals are now poised to reshape the world according to these sophisticated classical principles.
