Abstract:This thesis will take the early Renaissance (14th - 15th century) in Europe as the background to give an introduction about the inevitable rise of Renaissance in Italy. The first part will be the introduction of the overview, content and influence of the Renaissance, Then the historical significance will be given to overthrow the situation described before. Finally we will conclude in the significance in studying this subject.
To give a further analysis on the European Renaissance, the fundamental impetus turned out to be the rapid development of commerce. The analysis will be made in three aspects to show how the economic driving force--the most fundamental force--became the premise of economic development, and the manifestation of economic development as well as its influence. From above we may raise these following questions: why did the Renaissance rise in Italy but not in other countries? Why was it inevitable for the Renaissance to rise in Italy? What was the stimulating factor? What was the driving force and how did it promote the rise and development of the Renaissance?

摘要:本论文将以文艺复兴初期(14-15世纪)的欧洲为背景,介绍文艺复兴兴起于意大利的必然性。首先介绍文艺复兴的概况、内容和影响。说明文艺复兴重要的历史意义,使前文描述的情况彻底颠覆。之后说明我们研究这一题目的重大意义。
进一步分析欧洲文艺复兴的根本推动力即商业的快速发展。我们将从三个过程分析经济推动力——最根本的推动力——促成其经济发展的前提条件、经济发展的具体表现、经济发展对文艺复兴的影响。通过这三点我们可以解答以下问题,为什么文艺复兴会兴起与意大利而不是其他地区?为什么文艺复兴兴起与意大利是必然的而不是偶然?究竟是什么促使文艺复兴兴起与意大利?促使文艺复兴兴起与意大利的这个动力是怎样影响和促进文艺复兴的兴起和发展的。
