Renaissance Humanism Question

 

I’m working on a history writing question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

Based on lesson 11 and the text of Pico Della Mirandola’s Oration on the Dignity of Man found here, please explore the following questions in around 450 words. Define Renaissance humanism. How is it different or similar to the philosophy of scholasticism that dominated the world view of the Middle Ages? Using Pico’s text, explore an aspect of humanist philosophy. Why is this philosophy significant, and how is it reflected in the historical context of the Renaissance?
