Florentine Academy

The Florentine Academy was a 15th-century cultural and intellectual group in Florence, Italy, dedicated to studying classical texts, philosophy, and sciences. It was inspired by humanist thinkers who sought to revive and explore ancient Greek and Roman ideas. The Academy didn't have a formal structure but functioned as a gathering of scholars, artists, and poets committed to learning and artistic innovation. Its members influenced Renaissance art, literature, and science, contributing to a broader movement that emphasized human potential and knowledge. The Florentine Academy played a key role in fostering the intellectual revival that defined the Italian Renaissance.
