Is it true The Renaissance man had the ability to link information from different areas and fields and to create new knowledge?

Sagot :

This is true, or at least if the man of Renaissance are idealized this is true: this was their goal to be educated in all fields, and to have the ability to bring this knowledge together to create new knowledge.
As for the responder, it is true in some areas at least, that the Renaissance era was a period of acknowledging man’s capability and capacity in stance of removing himself from secular views, and developed a movement such as humanism. Man was attaining to think “out of the box” and to use logic and reason to obtain and create new knowledge, especially with the use of science in exploring the unknown. The renaissance era had a great influence on man and man evolved in the perspective of knowledge and wisdom. As known, philosophy, which is the mother of all sciences came to a more powerful and explicit view using logic.
