late Middle Ages. The Renaissance lasted from 1350 to 1555.
(Susan)

The Renaissance was
in northern Europe. (Beck)
Why is the Name Renaissance Significant?
It means rebirth. The Renaissance was the new beginning for art
and music and creativity. Since it was the new start it was also
described as the rebirth of creativity. (Beck)
Why Do We Study the Renaissance?
The reason why we study the Renaissance is because when then Europe left France they entered a time period of so much more than the middle ages. The middle ages
were so dark and coming from that we have light. The renaissance was the beginning of the the world we live in today. There were so many
new things being built. People were getting richer which then
lead to the blossoming of new and better ideas.
