the Renaissance was a period when scholars and
artists began to investigate what they believed to be a revival of
classical learning, literature and art. For example, the followers
of the 14th-century author Petrarch began to study texts from
Greece and Rome for their moral content and literary style. Having
its roots in the medieval university, this study called Humanism
centered on rhetoric, literature, history and moral philosophy.
