Italy and the RenaissanceBy: Tomas, Liam and Silous
The architecture between early 15th and 17th century. Developed first in Florence, influenced by Filippo
Brunelleschi The Renaissance architecture was quickly spread to
other Italian cities and carried to France, Germany, England and Russia.
Architecture became not only a question of practise, but also a matter for theoretical discussion.
Columns and pilasters, Arches, Vaults, and Domes were all parts of architecture used in the Renaissance

Renaissance science
History has it that Leonardo Da Vinci is the “father of modern science”. He has invented many things like the
Parachute, viola organista, diving suit, and more. Leonardo Da Vinci has many famous quotes too. Like one of his famous ones “A well spent day brings happy sleep”.
Lernardo Da Vinci was one of the smartest scientists during the renaissance period.
The Italian Renaissance is best known for its
cultural achievements. Famous poets of the 15th century include the
renaissance epic authors Luigi Pulci, author of Morgante, Matteo Maria Boiardo, Orlando Innamorato, and Ludovico Ariosto.
Italy Cultural Achievements
The use of gunpowder occurred in this era Guns like the arquebus and the musket were
invented The English long bow and the Swiss pike were
both deadly weapons, but not very many people learned to be a master of the bow because of the difficulty
The armour will usually deflect edged weapons and stop fired weapons (from a distance)
But the flintlock muskets will penetrate and destroy the flesh behind it
Warfare
The biggest authors during the renaissance
were George Chapman, Miles Cloverdale, john Lyly, and sir Thomas More.
In the early Italian Renaissance, much of the focus was on translating and studying classic works from Latin and Greek.
Many authors attempted to integrate the methods and styles of the ancient Greeks into their own works.

In Italy during the 14th century there was an
explosion of musical activity that corresponded in scope and level of innovation to the activity in the other arts.
By the late 16th century Italy was the musical centre of Europe.

In the 13th century, much of Europe
experienced strong economic growth. The trade routes of the Italian states linked with those of established Mediterranean ports and eventually the Hanseatic league of the Baltic and northern regions of Europe to create a network economy in Europe for the first time since the 4th century.
Economic growth
The 14th century saw a series of catastrophes
that caused the European economy to go into recession.
The Medieval Warm Period was ending and the Little Ice Age began.
This change in climate saw agricultural output decline a lot, leading to repeated famines, exacerbated by the rapid population growth of the earlier era.
