The Italian Renaissance

The Italian Renaissance, a time of artwork, a time of prosperity, a time of innovation. Following the Middle Ages or during the late 14th century, this age came to bring about a lot of changes throughout Europe but mainly originating from Italy. This was a time in where the core aspect of how we developed art, literature, and politics was allowed to expand and advance. With the economy leaning more into a society built with city-states the political leaders started to see the influence art could have and the type of control it could gain over people. The outcome was that city-states would try to flourish spreading bonds apart, and would compete for supremacy in the artistic world. City-states soon started pulling in artists and would use them to make their areas more popular and gain commerce.

The real highlight of the renaissance came from the art and the techniques and styles associated with them.

Painters, sculptors, and architects all came together to produce a mass arrangement of fine art. With the influential works of leadings sculptors like Donatello, the realism of paints portrayed by Botticelli and Giotto, and Leondardo Da Vinci's style to create futuristic objects, art came to be more lifelike. With many more artists we came to look at art as more than just pictures and words, but an in depth revitalization of human society. Many artists during the high renaissance and beyond soon adopted techniques related to these artists works and elaborated on them bringing the artistic world into an economical boom. The Renaissance helped to break from the original style and introduced the new way to look at things rather than the "traditional style".

yea...i think i'm gonna reform this...i was giving a summary kind of.... i'm going to see if i can do this one over though

"we developed art, literature, and politics was allowed to expand and advance"

what about science innovations?

The real highlite was not necessarily art. That's just what everybody recognizes because there was a changed in culture and many artists sprung out. There was also a revision of socrates' ideas of reason and questioning. You said that art, literature and politics were develped, yet you only wrote about art.

The reason that the art is noticed is because the art reflected humans more and it was more secular and away from divine ideas. There was still god, but it was not the primary center of intelligence anymore.

The traditional style was the style in the middle ages(or the dark ages). In the middle ages, they depended on the Bible and spiritual ideas. They had no lost and found station, there were "miracle finders" who could sense where the missing item was. The idea of deism came too. Look it up if you care about your knowledge on the renaissance.

You did not cover much about the italian renaissance. There is a lot more about it.

"elaborated on them bringing the artistic world into an economical boom"

I do not think that there was an economic boom because of the art being more perceptual. I think the economic improved because there was an emergence of the middle class.

So, yeah. You need more information, remember to analyze your stuff(ask yourself why is this fact significant).

For example: The romans made roads to connect cities. To analyze it, you ask: why is this significant? How does it show that the romans were sophisticated?

You take your answer and write it down. I know that it's really hard, so only do this on essays that matter. Also do not add unessessary stuff to your essay. Be sure to always stay on topic and only write stuff about your topic or to help and support it.

This essay was short, but it could have been good, if you did not call it The Italian Renaissance. You could have only focused on the art.

"This was a time in where the core aspect of how we developed art, literature, and politics was allowed to expand and advance. "

With this sentence in the intro paragraph, you bring up the argument that the renaissance was a time when art, literature, and politics was allowed to expand and advance. Do not say this if you are not going to support it. In the intro you are supposed to state facts then in the later paragraphs, say why.

I hope my stuff helped you adn I hope you will use some of my advice.
