What are the greatest accomplishments of the Renaissance...?

Question

what are the greatest accomplishments of the Renaissance and in what ways, if any, is the worldview of the Renaissance misguided?

Answer 1

Rediscovery of Greek scientific and artistic systems after "the dark ages".

Revitalization of  European economy and emergence of patron class (emergence of city/states).

The Arabic world maintained and advanced upon the mathematical, astronomical, and literary knowledge of the Greek world during the European "dark ages".

Technological innovation (see: Leonardo DaVinci) that thereafter progressed to the stage we are at now.

Answer 2

Accomplishment - How about St. Peter's Basilica, Rome, largest dome in the world?

Misguided - too-great a focus on logic/reason.  Many people prefer baroque art, as having more focus on appeal to emotions.

Answer 3

- The realisation that man, not God, is the centre of the universe, and that man can control his own destiny without relying on God to show us the way. (The Age of Humanism.)

- The discovery of perspective in painting, which lead to the great Renaissance painters (Leonardo, Michelangelo, etc.)

- The realisation that the church was corrupt and run by corrupt men out to further their own wealth rather than further the church, which lead to Martin Luther's reformation.

Worldview of the Renaissance misguided? I have no idea what your teacher means by that, sorry. Ask them to clarify that.
