- Beginning at the end of the 14th Century, the Renaissance created a new type of man, triggering economic, scientific, technical, religious, social and cultural developments that are unique in history.
Never before have culture, economics and science developed so rapidly within one century as during the Renaissance. But what was the catalyst for it, what is the "Renaissance factor"? The Renaissance is an epoch unique in human history: Never before have art, culture, economics and science developed so rapidly within a single century. We search for the "Renaissance factor", that combination of influences that triggered a pivotal period in history. It is a journey through time from Ancient Rome to the Crusades and the Black Death in the 14th century, events that defined the developments of the Renaissance. We travel with Michelangelo to the major construction site that was to become St. Peter’s Basilica, to the banking houses of the Medicis and the workshop of Johannes Gutenberg. We examine some of the many innovations of the Renaissance such as linear perspective, the printing press and double-entry bookkeeping. We ask what these achievements mean to us today and how - almost half a millennium later - we continue to benefit from the "Renaissance factor." And we delve deeper with the help of spectacular reenactments and our "special investigators" - modern-day trendsetters, scientists, business tycoons, fashion designers and artists.

I have just discovered this channel and I am sold. Great documentaries.
Thank you all very much for this documentary of the Renaissance!
Thank you for watching!
For this crazy age, this is an absolutely astonishing documentary. Inspiring yet not pompous. Truthful without need to stick to conventions established on wrong conclusions of our ancestors. I particularly enjoyed the bit about Colombus. Well done!
Yes, the columbus part was my favorite as well. If they would have mentioned his perversions as well would have been priceless...
loved the effects, infos, the cuts, the narration of this documentary, loved everything about it very wonderfully made.
Hi @Meraki Production,
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching and for your positive feedback. :-)
Best,

Well played sir.

"It's a story of people who did not wish to believe. But to know.". I cannot even express in words how powerful it is! Thanks for the impressive and valuable content! 😁

Yep is really an extraordinary its 1 of my favourite topics in history.

Love, respect and admiration from Nigeria
By Nura KC Nigeria 🇳🇬🥂
Amazing Job, thank u for your great effort. I enjoyed.
Amazing content DW really bravo
Enjoyed hearing the epic achievements of renowned artists -Donatello, Da Vinci, Michelangelo, etc. They were the Renaissance men.
Was there a Raphael? ( just a TMNT fan question)
@Setsuo Nakano I never heard of him then. What was he most known for?
@@imperatordei6615 Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino, known as Raphael, was an Italian painter and architect of the High Renaissance. His work is admired for its clarity of form, ease of composition, and visual achievement of the Neoplatonic ideal of human grandeur. He was also revered for his amazing technique with the sai and pizza eating skills Wikipedia
Great post DW. I'm a big fan.
I’ve only watched the first 10 min and there are so many errors. It’s incredible. Da Vinci earned money through patronage of powerful families not solely through painting. He was payed handsomely for his works in engineering, architecture, and for inventions of war. He is considered a Renascence man because of his mind. He delved into Botany, Anatomy, hydrodynamics, Human Flight, and even robotics. What made him such a man to remember is He did not separate the Sciences from Art.
I could not agree more with your view. I did sit through both episodes, unfortunately there wasn’t an improvement. The writer continued to press myths instead of truths
Agree! I watched until the end. There were mistakes in the entire thing
@@lauramipe2955 thanks for the Heads ups
Thank you. Always a pleasure to meet knowledge, even if it's in the comments. So.. thank you!
one of the biggest genius whoever walked this planet.

"For people who accept not to believe but know" the renaissance in one line
Thank You DW for bringing The Renaissance back to life as a history enthusiastic and refreshed my italy visit of 2015. I must admire the music, the art, the curiosity and most importantly the self believe were depicted beautifully in this video I was literally in tears in the last part of the video, merci beaucoup! ☺But what was the catalyst for it, what is the "Renaissance factor"?

DW great work!

Thank you so much for this wonderful and truly educational doc! Downloading its two parts and sharing as well! By the way, the narrator´s British accent is not only charming but one of the clearest I've ever heard, which is not usually the case in what come to my ears, but for few exceptions:-)
Awesome work ! Thank you so much DW !
Excellent documentary.
Thank you for your efforts
great doc from DW agin cheers
a very inspiring documentary
Thank you DW for this
This was pretty good!
Mona Lisa was never finished! He worked on it right up until his death. He gave it to his companion .
It's actually a pathetic painting - and only became famous because it was stolen from the Louvre in 1911. If it'd been an old shoe, the burglary would have made the shoe famous.
@The Random Reign of Vanilla Now, there's an argument! ???
@@ane-louisestampe7939 calling somethin unviersal claimed as visionary art of piece ow could be pathetic? if something dont suit you doesnt mean its a shit,first lesson for your life.
Great documentary. ❤️it.
Many thanks 👍👏👏👏
an enjoyable and informative movie. TQ
"It's a story of people who did not want to belive, but to know, and who accepted no limits to their quest"
I don't think most people today understand the gravity of saying the earth was not the center of the universe back then.
I see what you did there!
You did MEAN to do that right?..
@@safeysmith6720 I would like to know what kind of agenda YOU are pursuing? What he/she meant, according to you? You are very enigmatic..... tell us....
@@nina-ciara He's mentioning the pun and wondering whether OP meant the pun or it was just a convenience of the topic.
@@aaronrubin1591 🤣😂you didn't get it, do you?
@@nina-ciara Damn, went right over my head :(
Yt users tend to recognize the greatness of a video when it's about something in history that doesn't hurt their feelings because it has no side in the present. But if the video is about something which does influences us now, they say the documentary is biased or that it's fake news.
The cry baby generation is wht i named them👶👶👶👶
I really love this documentry 🥰🥰🥰🥰
What a great program! Better than anything I had in college. Thank you DW.
Hi @Alfred Sutton, thanks for watching and commenting! Glad you liked the documentary. 🙂
OH.MY.DAYS
WOULD YOU EVER STOP BREATHING INTO THE MIC?!!!
Masterpiece!
Quest of human can never stop.
And repeated renessaince must be the characteristic of human society
I’m afraid the quest of humanity has turned into a questioning of humanity and replacing it with technology. After all A.I is much smarter than a clumsy mortal human. We’ll let the A.I decide 4 us.
@@AuhSojmusic Throughout history we have advanced, we have always had technology. Tools, for example, are a technology. AI will not be the problem, like any technology, what matters is how we choice to use it.
The OP hit the nail on head, brilliant quote.
I think youre ressented.
Awesome! Thank DW
Right same buetuiful DW🥳🥳🤩🤩🤩🤩🥳🥳🤩
Many thanks DW.
Thank you for watching and taking the time comment. Stay tuned for more :)
I really enjoyed this documentary!!!
Very educational and inspiring to be. They were the brain of this changing world.
Good documentary
Bro like respect to DW!!!!!!! Best doc in the world lok
Some speculations being presented as facts in this documentary. 🤔
Like which ones?
@@janbatista9832 I’ve never seen a bit of evidence, other than one anonymous accusation, that Da Vinci was gay, let alone “openly homosexual”. Maybe he was. I don’t care but we don’t know and the makers of this documentary don’t know.
Outstanding documentary! Thank you!
This was a really enjoyable documentary. Are you going to tackle the industrial revolution? That would be interesting subject matter as well.
Brilliant! Thank you 🤓
tolle Sprecherin. da macht es Freude zuzuhören. Kein mit erhobenem Finger - predigen -. aber auch kein - we have a problem-, das mann so oft hört. - chapeau -.
only that it was Isabella of Castile and not her husband Ferdinand of Aragon who gave money to Columbus, in fact, Ferdinand was reluctant as he wanted that money to go to military expenditure. Ferdinand and Isabella had agreements to lend each other money (Castile and Aragon) so if the money for Columbus was coming from the Aragonese funds, most likely was to pay a debt to Castile anyways... but the champion of Columbus was Isabella, not Ferdinand...
superb documentary. THanks for making and uploading it.
Kudos and thanks to all responsible for researching and producing this excellent documentary.
Thanks for watching.
Arts and Science nowadays goes hand-in-hand.
Danke für das video!
Thanks!
A great watch
The keeping of time was a medieval fascination, as was the obsession with mechanics. Every town wanted a mechanical clock. It was a matter of status. When Bessarion fled at the fall of Constantinople and brought with him the remains of the ancient Greek culture, he remarked that the West was already far ahead of the Byzantines in the mechanical arts. The "Renaissance" was in many respects a retrograde movement, and did not really reflect the genuine culture that was beginning to bloom. Those who wish to understand should read Spengler's "Decline of the West."
I agree! Probably becuse i have read Spengler.
Yep, so TRUE
👏🍻
Thank you for telling the TRUTH about wht Columbus "discovery" really did and did not do.
You have gained a subscriber, for your honesty...
Such an evil dude. Said some random person living in North America benefiting from Colombus' actions every day sitting on their high horse.
@@mspoints4fre123 cope and begone,, Columbus simp.
If you are a native respect. If you are white American either you Go back to Europe or shut up about colombus you have to thank him
Excellent.
DW Documentary!!! I would really be curious to know your sources when you say in this documentary that " Leonardo was openly gay !!".
@bumdog you gay dude??
I want to know too because I NEVER heard of that. I searched online but it doesn’t state with any certainty that he was gay
@@val-zod1284 I’ve read many books about him and have never seen one bit of evidence, other than one anonymous accusation, that he was gay, let alone “openly gay”. Maybe he was. I don’t care. We don’t know and the makers of this documentary don’t know.
DaVinci was not an open homosexual. That's just a lie.
Love it.
Fabulous! Expanding and enlightening! Ausgezeichnet!
Thank you ...
Hi @ibarbozza,
Thanks for watching part 1 and 2. We hope you found the documentary interesting.
Best,
The DW Documentary Team
The School Of Athens is one of the greatest masterpiece I’ve ever seen.
I am here at quarantine time .3 AM
Now this is art
Another DW masterpiece
The statement about Columbus in the opening casts a shadow on this episode
I noticed that too.
Columbus reached the Caribian.
Vespucci Amerigo found the mainland, therefor called America.
thanks for the great documentary. through years. there are bits and pieces of renaissance and its well known figures. this documentary pieces it together, a good reference to a Chinese work 歎世界~carbon world which attributes the renaissance to the modern-day standards of artistic beauty. great documentary. thanks n keep up with the good work. from HK.
Many things were left unanswered and me puzzled too like about start of Renaissance ( from which place, when, important people in this etc), but overall it was captivating. Good work.
Please watch Part I.
Because this is Part 2 Bro all of that is in the Part 1
praying this gets me though my modern world history test tomorrow (omfg it tomorrow) i just realized its Thursday
