The Renaissance was a cultural movement that took place roughly in the 14th Century and 17th Century. In the middle of the middle ages of Florence in the middle of Italy.

There are many famous people in this period. The main introduction of Dante. His works include "DIVINE COMDEY". Dante is one of the greatest poets in Europe and one of the greatest writers in the world. His work is like his life.
