Excerpt from The Renaissance: The Revival of Learning and Art in the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Centuries The classical literature of Greece and the law of Rome, as well as the Mosaic religion, prepared the way for the introduction and success of Christianity in the old Roman empire. The same literature and law became educators of the Latin and Teutonic races for modern civilization. The Italians took the place of the ancient Greeks, and even surpassed them as poets and artists. Republican Florence rivalled and outshone Athens as a home of genius, and papal Rome excelled imperial Rome in the liberal patronage of letters and arts.
