The fundamental reason for the Renaissance was to revive the classical Greco-Roman culture of the past.
Literature and art were highly prosperous in the classical era of Greece and Rome, but they declined and disappeared in the "Dark Ages" of the Middle Ages, and it was not until the 14th century that they were "reborn" and "revived", so it is called "Renaissance".
Based on the unique political structure of Italy in the late Middle Ages, some scholars have theorized that the unique social atmosphere provided the necessary conditions for a rare cultural flourishing in Italy.
In the early modern period, Italy was not a unified political entity, but rather a number of city-states and fiefdoms: Dominance ruled Naples in the south.
The kingdoms, the Republic of Florence and the Papal States in the center, Genoa and Milan in the north and west respectively, and Venice in the east.
Italy in the 15th century was the level of urbanization in Europe.
The highest area. Many Italian cities were built on the ruins of ancient Roman architecture; On the face of it, this places the classicism of the Renaissance and its origins in the Roman Empire.

The Greek Humanism is an early humanism, and its understanding from natural philosophy to social philosophy is relatively superficial. In Western Europe, society changed dramatically from slavery to feudalism, and its humanism developed rapidly under the oppression of rulers and religions, such as Petrarch in his writings, which challenged the shackles of religion. Therefore, the objects expressed and criticized in the literary theories of Western Europe are also very different, and the forms of expression are more diverse, such as prose, poetry, **, etc.
The ancient Greek texts were imbued with non-religious humanism, rationalism, and speculative spirit, which can be found in the writings and speeches of Socrates and Plato. In ancient Rome, people were more pragmatic, take-it-or-leave-it, and advocated hedonism, and they no longer admired the rational brilliance of humanism in ancient Greece, but focused on the pursuit of pleasure, as can be seen from the Colosseum, palaces and public baths built in Rome. At the same time, religious idealism also arose during this period.
From 30 BC to 180 AD, the period of the heyday of ancient Rome, it is known that in the 5th century, the ancient Roman Empire declined, divided into the Byzantine Empire and the Roman State. The Byzantine Empire inherited the essence of ancient Greek and Roman thought and culture, and knew that it would fall in the 15th century AD, in a sense, to ensure the continuation of the European cultural root system, because Western Europe was still fighting fiercely under the yoke of slavery at this time. Until the 15th century, coinciding with the complete collapse of the ancient Roman Empire, the Renaissance in Western Europe began, and the representatives of that time, Dante's "Divine Comedy", Petraca's "Songbook", Boccaccio's "Decameron", etc., were all full of humanism and speculative spirit.

Because the emerging bourgeoisie did not have its own theoretical system, it needed to rely on ancient Greco-Roman culture to open the way.
Renaissance: The ideological and cultural emancipation movement that took place in Europe from the mid-14th century to the early 17th century. Italy was the birthplace and center of the Renaissance, which gradually spread to other countries in Western Europe in the late 15th century. The Renaissance was guided by humanism, which on the surface was a movement to revive the classical culture of ancient Greece and Rome, but in fact it was an anti-feudal struggle in the ideological field of the emerging bourgeoisie in Europe.

At the end of the century, due to the invasion of the Ottoman Empire, many scholars in Eastern Rome, with a large number of ancient Greek and Roman art treasures and books on literature, history, philosophy, etc., fled to Western Europe for refuge. The high art of ancient Greece and Rome intoxicated people, and they couldn't help but plant the seeds of the Renaissance in their hearts.
In ancient Greece and Rome, the achievements of literature and art were very high, and people were free to express various academic ideas, but not in the Middle Ages, so they had to use ancient Greek and Roman culture as a cover.
