The medieval period in Europe (roughly 500AD to 1500AD) is of interest as a bridge between the Ancient World and the world of today. The medieval people deliberately turned their back on the despotic, slave-based civilizations of the Mediterranean (Persia, Egypt, Greece and Rome). At their center was the family (idealized in the form of Jesus and his family) and some gainful employment. Among aspects of contemporary life which were first experimented with in the Middle Ages are banks, accounting, schools, hospitals, charities, sports and law courts.
The chronicle of medieval history concerns the struggles of various warlike tribes left at the end of the Roman Empire to turn themselves into stable nations. They all became integrated with a single religious culture - the Catholic Church. the fortunes of the various nations changed. In the beginning the wealth was in in the central region (Poland, Bohemia, Germany and Italy), but later countries with access to the Atlantic Ocean (Spain, Portugal, France, Britain and the Netherlands) became dominant.
The standard of medieval painting, architecture, literature and music is judged to be high. However the Christian faith was certainly a barrier in the development of medicine and science.
Because of the importance given to the smallest amount of personal property much information relating to taxes, inheritance, contracts and property deeds was written down. A large proportion exists today, which enables further discoveries to be made about medieval times now and into the future.
Humanism.
There are many important inventions of the Renaissance. One of these inventions that allowed for major reforms in education was the study of structure.
Renaissance thought emphasized humanism, focusing on individual potential and the study of classical texts, contrasting with the Middle Ages' emphasis on religious doctrine and collective values. This shift led to a greater appreciation for secular subjects and the human experience. Musically, Renaissance compositions featured greater use of harmony, polyphony, and expressive melodies, moving away from the more monophonic and chant-based styles of the Middle Ages. The rise of instruments and more complex vocal arrangements in the Renaissance also contributed to a richer and more varied sound.
The renaissance was a major break though in art. the early greeks and romans were very advanced in art, but it was all destroyed and lost because of the barbarians. in the medevail times, the cathlioc pope did not allow artist to study bodies. that is why medevail paintings are pretty bad. in the renaissace, artist did start to study dead bodies and learn more about humans. this was a major breakthrough in art and science

Humanism.
in general, only wealthy people had time to study classical texts and humanist ideas. as a result many middle and lower classes were not well educated and didn't participate in any Renaissance activities.

Astronomy is the renaissance that studies the planets. They study the planets and space.
Renaissance (litt.: "Rebirth") means the rebirth of the study and appreciation of the culture and knowledge of ancient Rome and Greece. People's outlook on life in general did not change that much, but within the cultural elite at the time - which then included almost all ruling courts in Europe - there was a jolt forward in knowledge (especially mathematics, astronomy and science) and art.
