The Renaissance was the beginning of learning for Western Europeans truefalse?

The Renaissance was a cultural movement that spanned the 14th to 17th centuries, beginning in Italy in the late Middle Ages and later spreading to the rest of Europe. One of the key features of the Renaissance was the renewed interest in classical learning and literature, which had been largely neglected during the Middle Ages. This led to a flourishing of scholarship and the rediscovery of many ancient texts. As a result, the Renaissance is often seen as a period of great intellectual and cultural progress.
