The Renaissance by Zhang Bingqian (ES02178)




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. The Divine Comedy describes Dante in hell, Purgatory and Paradise travel through.Dante's life again. So Dante yearns for freedom. It shows that at the time of the period they thought embodies a kind of personality liberation, objected to the asceticism and religious view.

    Finally, I think it is because of the presence of Dante, such as Dante, that makes Europe free from the shackles of decadent feudal religion, like a prelude to the expansion of the world.
