The Essence of Renaissance
The “Essence of Renaissance” outlined in this book delves into the profound reawakening, not just as a historical period, but as a personal revival or rebirth. For those over 50, this signifies an invigorating renewal of spirit and an expansion of interests and expertise. It’s about rediscovering passions, learning new skills, and viewing life through a lens of boundless possibilities. The entire book resonates with the powerful words of the Italian Renaissance scholar, Petrarch:
“I am learning to understand rather than immediately judge or to be judged. I cannot blindly follow the crowd and accept their approach. I will not allow myself to indulge in the usual manipulating game of role creation. Fortunately for me, my self-knowledge has transcended that and I have come to understand that life is best to be lived and not to be conceptualized. I am happy because I am growing daily and I am honestly not knowing where the limit lies.”
This quote beautifully captures the spirit of renaissance, encouraging individuals in their 50s and beyond to embrace a journey of growth, exploration, reinvention and self-discovery.
