9. The Renaissance Times

Starting in Florence in the 14th century, a new era began to emerge in the West. People like Petrarch, who re-discovered Cicero's lost letters, and the new humanists - who valued the study of classical antiquity - ushered in rebirth, or as we know it today, a 'renaissance' - in the study of the arts, the sciences, philosophy, and the theatre. They rediscovered what it meant to be human.
