关于此电子书
The Renaissance is a period in history and a cultural movement marking the transition from the Middle Ages to modernity, covering the 15th and 16th centuries and characterized by an effort to revive and surpass the ideas and achievements of classical antiquity; it occurred after the crisis of the Late Middle Ages and was associated with great social change in most fields and disciplines, including art, architecture, politics, literature, exploration and science. Those who advocate for a "long Renaissance" may, in addition to the conventional periodization, place the beginning of the Renaissance in the 14th century and the end of the Renaissance in the 17th century.The conventional viewpoint places more emphasis on the early modern characteristics of the Renaissance and contends that it was a departure from the past. On the other hand, many historians of today place more emphasis on the medieval aspects of the Renaissance and contend that it was an extension of the Middle Ages. The early Renaissance of the 15th century and the Italian Proto-Renaissance, which began around 1250 or 1300, overlap significantly with the Late Middle Ages, which is traditionally dated to approximately 1350-1500. The Middle Ages themselves were a lengthy period filled with gradual changes, similar to the modern age. The Renaissance, which is a transitional period between both the Middle Ages and the Modern Age, has close similarities to both of these periods, particularly the late and early sub-periods of either of the two.
