The English Renaissance

The Renaissance developed in England earlier than in Europe and had its own characteristics. The influence of France was immense; however, England tried to free itself from what was connected to the Church of Rome. The main feature was its strong Catholic basis, influenced by the Reformation. The literature of the period lacked the religious serenity of the Italian Renaissance and was more committed to the visual arts.
