OR Discuss the characteristics of Renaissance. OR  \nRenaissance is \"the birth of the modern world out of the ashes of the dark ages.\" -Explain. OR  \nComment on chief characteristics of Renaissance. OR write a note on influence of Renaissance on Elizabethan Literature. OR\"Renaissance was the age of wonder, the glory and the beauty of human mind.\" -Elaborate.  \nAns. 'The Renaissance' is a French word. Its meaning is rebirth, revival or reawakening. The Renaissance was the revival of ancient classical  \nmythology literature and culture. It can also be considered thereawakening of the human mind after the long slumber of the dark middle ages. It was the age of wonder, the glory and the beauty of human mind. It appeared as if mankind was awakened from the long sleep and looked at the glory of nature with astonishment. It was like a rediscovery by mankind of himself and the world. It was the revival of the cult of beautythe beauty of woman, nature, art and literature. It started in Italy in the 14th century with the works of Petrarch and certain others. In 1453 it was stimulated by the fall of Constantinople and the invention of the printing press in Germany. The great discoveries of scientists and navigators also boosted the arrival of Renaissance. Its influence reached England during the last phase of 15th century and the beginning of the 16th century. As Compton Rickett puts it, \"While Italy was afire with the new sunrise; it was still for England merely a streak of light upon the horizon.\"  \nLet us have a look at the historic background too. It was the Age of Queen Elizabeth-1. In England renaissance means rebirth. It conveys the idea that for centuries European cultures had been extinct but by some means it came back to life which led to the rediscovery of Greek and Roman Literature. This reawakening reached classical learning to Italy in 14th century. It was essentially a European movement which was born in Italy and then spread to Germany, France and England. One was the fall of Constantinople, the capital of the Roman Empire. After this fall of the Roman Empire, the Greek scholars went away to Italy with valuable manuscripts. Thus a revival of classical studies began in Italy.
