Episode 13: Renaissance, The Old

from The Medici Podcast Hosted by Chad Denton

In part one of a two parter on the origins of the Renaissance, I discuss how Greek and Roman pagan culture survived the rise of Christianity and its persecution of pagans, why and how a bunch of scholars rediscovered the past, and how in their quest to recreate the virtues of antiquity they and their patrons accidentally ended up creating the modern world.
