In religion they demanded the reformation of the church. In art and literature, instead of singing praise to God, they sang in praise of man and of the pursuit of happiness in this life. Humanism shattered the shackles of spiritual bondage of man’s mind by the Roman Catholic Church and opened his eyes to “a brave new world” in front of him.
In 1453, the Turks seized Constantinople which had been the center of Mediterranean civilization for a thousand years. When Constantinople fell to the hands of the Turks, many of its Greek teachers fled with their libraries to Italy and taught in Italian universities.

To some English Renaissance, humanism did not mean that there was nothing to do with God. To Edmund Spenser, for instance, God is the first principle, and all human actions and behaviours should not be contradictory to the divine laws of God. That is, the natural grace should not contradict with the divine grace.

Sir Thomas Malory’s Le Morte D’Arthur 1) A Brief Introduction to Malory
Malory was an English country gentleman and soldier, a member of parliament for Warwickshire in 1445, and later fought on the side of Lancastrians in the War of the Roses. In 1450 he was charged with several crimes and sentenced to imprisonment. In prison, he translated Le Morte D’Arthur from French where he spent a great deal part of the last 20 years of his life. Thomas Malory is the only important prose writer in the 15th century
"The Renaissance gave birth to the modern era, in that it was in this era that human beings first began to think of themselves as individuals. In the early Middle Ages, people had been happy to see themselves simply as parts of a greater whole – for example, as members of a great family, trade guild, nation, or Church. This communal consciousness of the Middle Ages gradually gave way to the individual consciousness of the Renaissance."
