The Renaissance did not precede the discovery of the New World
Explanation:
The Renaissance started in the 16th century that is to say after 1492 and the discovery of America by Columbus, nevertheless some scholars claim that the Renaissance can be traced back to the 14th century with innovative artists such as Dante and Petrarch. The thirst for knowledge, the challenging of dogmas and the constant search for new perspectives are part of Renaissance values that might have contributed to the discovery of the New World.
