Answer:

The answer is:

a. Because Dante was born in the Middle Ages but pretended he was a Renaissance Man

Step-by-step explanation:

Dante Alighieri was a Florentine poet who was born in the 1260s and died in 1321.

Although Dante was born in late medieval times. Florence was full of artistic marvels well before the Renaissance, but there are indications that Dante was influenced by the Renaissance. It marked the endpoint of the middle ages.
