Renaissance drama refers to the plays and theatrical works produced in Europe during the Renaissance period, which lasted from the 14th to the 17th century. These plays were influenced by classical Greek and Roman theater and focused on themes such as Humanism, individualism, and the revival of interest in classical literature and culture. Some key playwrights of this era include William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe, and Ben Jonson.
