Publisher's Summary

Did you know that the Renaissance is thought of as the gateway to the modern world?

The Renaissance was only a short period in European history, but it was the revolution needed to move from the Middle Ages to the modern world. It was full of new philosophies and art, new architecture and inventions, and new governments and churches. In a short span of time, the Europeans found themselves creating, acting, and living in completely new ways. People now had access to new ideas, and Europe would never be the same again.

Where did all of this change come from? For years, people have studied parts of the Renaissance. They have focused on a philosopher or an artist. They have focused on church history or politics. But the Renaissance was more than just one person or movement, which is what made it so powerful.

It’s time to set sail back into history and learn about the many parts of the Renaissance. In this new and captivating history audiobook, you’ll learn what made the Renaissance so special and how it still influences us today.

Here are some of the questions you will find answers to within this audiobook:

  • Why did humanism power the Renaissance?
  • Did Machiavelli really believe what he wrote in The Prince?
  • How did the Black Death help start the Renaissance?
  • Who built the dome on the Florence Cathedral?
  • Why did artists fight for patrons?
  • How did Michelangelo paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel?
