THE RENAISSANCE

The Renaissance  in English Literature was the topic of this week. First of all, I want to explain what is renaissance. The Renaissance is rebirth both in social life and literature after The Middle Ages. Thanks to the renaissance, dogmatism and scholastic thought took a back seat. Also, beliefs against church and reverends of people began to decrease. No longer people  believed whatever reverends say. They began to think more rationally. Therefore, humanism  was born. Man is more important than other things for humanism. Thanks to these developments, social life began to get better.

As for literature at this time, a new era began  for literature. because artists get rid of the impact of Bible, they could write their thoughts in works. Moreover, they had the opportunity to replicate their works with the invention of printing press. Hereby, people was more free and rationalism came into prominence in literature.

As a result, Because it brought about many innovations, The Renaissance is a significant improvement for people and literature.
