Detailed explanation-1: -During the Renaissance, people increasingly began to see the world from a human-centered perspective. This had a powerful impact upon religion. Increasingly, people were paying more attention to this life rather than the afterlife. Eventually, humanism brought about a spirit of skepticism.
Detailed explanation-2: -Renaissance people had certain common values. Among them were humanism, individualism, skepticism, well-roundedness, secularism, classicism and patronage. These values were reflected in buildings, writing, painting, sculpture, and science.
Detailed explanation-3: -During the Renaissance people started to see life on Earth as worth living for its own sake, not just as an ordeal to endure before going to heaven. The art of the period in particular exhibited this secular spirit, showing detailed and accurate scenery, anatomy, and nature.
Detailed explanation-4: -How did humanism and secularism differ from previous Medieval beliefs? Medieval scholars focused on god and faith, while humanism focused on human potential and secularism is the idea of something being not religious. Why did the Renaissance eventually spread to the rest of Europe?
