The major characteristics of the Italian Renaissance was in the form of the influence of literature. It helped set the stage for the grand period . Many books and plays are produced during that time. Humanism was also the main talking point of that era. Humanism is a philosophical term, used to picture man as a rational and sentimental human being, meaning that human life is very precious, meaning Man are good by nature, contradicting terms in Christian faith that Man are sinners, which need salvation and redemption from his past sins, to get eternal life, and not plunge into the fiery pits of Hell. It goes beyond Christianity, questioning beyond God, the Holy Spirit and spiritual life, and provide new insight into reality as we know it. There was also a great infusion of science, most notably Leornado Dan Vinci, and Galieo, whom brought science into life. Lastly, architecture was also very common during that period, where famous monuments like the St. Peter's Basilica was constructed.
