Renaissance is the name given in the nineteenth century to a broad cultural movement that occurred in Western Europe during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. It was a period of transition between the Middle Ages and the beginnings of the Modern Age. Its main exponents are in the field of arts, although there was also a renewal in science, both natural and human. The city of Florence, in Italy, was the place of birth and development of this movement, which extended later throughout Europe. The Renaissance was the result of the diffusion of the ideas of humanism, which determined a new conception of man and the world. The term «Renaissance» was used by claiming certain elements of the classical Greek and Roman culture, and originally applied as a return to the values of GrecoLatin culture and free contemplation of nature after centuries of predominance of a more rigid type of mentality and dogmatic established in medieval Europe. In this new stage there was a new way of seeing the world and the human being, with new approaches in the fields of the arts, politics, philosophy and science, replacing medieval theocentrism for anthropocentrism.
