The relationship between Sir Francis Drake and the Renaissance is only supportable in that he was an explorer and privateer during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I . This time in history was the height of the English Renaissance period. (Known as the "Elizabethan Era".) This was a time in which literature and English poetry blossomed. Authors and playwrights such as William Shakespeare and the sort exploded in theaters of the time. (One of special note was the Elizabethan Theater.) It was also a time when exploration and expansion of the realms of English influence sprang forward from England. Sir Francis Drake was known through history for circumnavigating the globe. While considered a pirate by Spain, he was commonly referred to as a hero in England. While, I don't believe that the Renaissance was influenced by Drake, his most notable and historically documented exploits occurred during this period. Therefore, his contributions to the Renaissance should be recognized as exploration/circumnavigation of the world.
