The two periods are regarded as overlapping to some extent. Also the dates are very inexact.

The Renaissance began during the 14th century in Italy. It is characterized by a so-called rebirth of civilization, creating the modern age.

The Middle Ages were the middle time between the ancient world and the modern. They ended in the 15th century.
