उत्तर
The Renaissance, or the revival of classical Graeco-Roman learning, inspired and encouraged people to question and challenge long-established ideas and institutions that had been imposed on them by the church and their kings. They refused to blindly accept the dictates of their milers and the Church. They demanded to know the truth based on logic and reason and rejected everything that did not satisfy the yardstick of reason. This new spirit of rationalism led to the rise of scientific temper and the spirit of inquiry. This scientific temper and the desire to inquire or seek the truth led to new and varied developments in the fields of art, architecture, sculpture, painting, literature, science, and technology.
