Opening Titles

 * In all of human history, few times have produced such a rich and varied explosion of creativity as that period called "the Renaissance".
 * How and why the Renaissance came about, and what has been its meaning, are questions still discussed today. Scholars, historians, artists, and other continue to debate ad others continue to debate and disagree–for such controversy is the lifeblood of humanistic study.
 * In this film we have chosen no particular contemporary interpretation, but have attempted, whenever possible, to present the Italian Renaissance in the very words of some of the figures who made this age a landmark for all humanity.
