Answer:

Renaissance humanism represents an intellectual and philosophical movement that developed during the Renaissance period (15th and 16th centuries).

Anthropocentrism (man at the center of the world) was the main concept on which the philosophical thinking of the time was based.

In this sense, the expansion of scientism (Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler, Newton, etc.) confronted several dogmas of the Catholic Church, which gradually lost many followers, especially with the Protestant reform.

Along with this, Renaissance anthropocentrism replaces medieval theocentrism. It is an important period of social, cultural, political and economic transformations, which influenced the mentality of the time.
