		The term Renaissance, adopted from the French equivalent of the Italian word rinascita, meaning literally "rebirth," describes the radical and comprehensive changes that took place in European culture during the 15th and 16th centuries, bringing about the demise of the Middle Ages and embodying for the first time the values of the modern world.
		The term Renaissance, describing the period of European history from the early 14th to the late 16th century, is derived from the French word for rebirth, and originally referred to the revival of the values and artistic styles of classical antiquity during that period, especially in Italy.
		The later Renaissance was marked by a growth of bureaucracy, an increase in state authority in the areas of justice and taxation, and the creation of larger regional states.

	HP Carly Fiorina Speech: Digital Renaissance, Medieval Policy
		If you had to boil the Renaissance down to one sentence, it was the end of the medieval, geocentric universe, the end to humanity's subordinate role, and the freeing of the individual imagination.
		Since the individual is the center of both the first and second Renaissance, logic tells us that empowerment of the individual should be the guiding principle to develop new values and rules.
