What else can I help you with?
Which time period would you preferred to have lived in the Renaissance or the middle ages explain your reasons why?
Personally, I would have preferred to have lived during the Middle Ages. One reason is that people in the Renaissance looked down on those of the Middle Ages as barbarians, but the people of the Renaissance were more superstitious and less rational. They pursued witch hunts and suppressed science in ways that were not done in the Middle Ages. Unfortunately, we tend to buy the propaganda of the Renaissance, partly because they were the only ones who could make the comparison - the people of the Middle Ages did not know what was coming. There was a lot of activity in the Middle Ages in engineering, science, philosophy, education, and mathematics that we little of today. The people of the Renaissance tried to work in these fields, but took a less practical and more cosmological point of view, resulting in ecclesiastical suppression. The food and medicine in the High Middle Ages and Late Middle Ages were no worse that that of the Renaissance. The people of the Middle Ages believed that cleanliness was next to godliness, so they were clean. They also believed that bad air, with bad smells, could carry diseases. The people of the Renaissance covered their bad smells with perfume and called the Middle Ages stinky. The people of the Middle Ages believed in their religion and believed a person was no better than his word. The Renaissance produced Macchiavelli and people who thought he was just dandy. One thing the Renaissance had was a greater proportion of houses that had fireplaces and chimneys.
What is the opposite of Middle Ages?
There was no opposite of the Middle Ages. The Middle Ages were a time from the 5th century to the 15th. They were not a period of darkness and misery, as some people would say; for most people they were not much better or worse than other times. They were not a time of especially great superstition, compared to, for example, the Renaissance, with its witch hunts and government sponsored inquisitions. They were just a time.
With the rejection of the middle ages came creativity and what?
The conventional answer to this question is probably "rationality" or "reason." Personally, I don't buy it. The Middle Ages were, in my opinion, more creative and more rational than the Renaissance. Please see the link to a related question below for an explanation.
What are the differences between the Middle Ages and the Renaissance?
the difference between the renaissance and the middle ages is that the middle ages was a time of survival and religious belives. During the middle ages people still believed in god. Also, there were many raids, and travel was not safe. People focused on getting enough food and survivng in the harsh way of life. The middle ages is known as the dark ages because of how harsh people lived. On the other hand the renaissance was of time of rebith, invention, and bring back the classic ways of the Greek and Roman ideas. People lived in luxury and enjoyed life unlike the people of the medival era, otherwise known as the middle ages.

What is a Middle Ages alewife?

The new age of thinking after the Middle Ages' magic and mysticism?
I know most people would answer, claiming that the Renaissance was rational and the Middle Ages dedicated to superstition. My own view, after studying this for a while, is that the Middle Ages were considerably less superstitious than the Renaissance. The bad witch hunts happened after the Middle Ages ended, as did Church attempts to suppress science. The Renaissance was really no more prolific in production of new inventions or science than the Middle Ages. The Renaissance also saw a decline in the rights of women and lower classes. I have included a link below to an article on witch hunts, which illustrates the point pretty well, I think.

How was the arts in middle ages different from during the Renaissance?
Probably the greatest difference between medieval art and the art of the Renaissance is that Renaissance artists wanted to be visually accurate. Renaissance artists studied human anatomy in a way medieval people would probably have found shocking, for example, by watching doctors dissect the bodies of dead people. Renaissance artists also developed and studied linear perspective, which is the same perspective that is produced in a camera. They produced a level of understanding of linear perspective that remained virtually unchanged until advances of the last few decades of the 20th century. Renaissance artists also relied heavily on oil paints, which allowed much more detail in the paintings than could be achieved by the paints used in the Middle Ages. Oils were under development during most of the Middle Ages, but it was not until the Renaissance that they were really perfected. Renaissance artists were less inclined to limit their artwork to religious topics than medieval artists were. The great art of the Middle Ages include a lot of calligraphy and illumination of manuscripts. These, of course, were replaced by typography, wood cut, and engraving during the Renaissance.
