Im Byeong-cheol: A feast of intellect blooming amidst anxiety

Reading the Renaissance is both fun and painful. "The great days" when some of the most brilliant geniuses have ever heard of it, and they've been so proud of their genius, even though they're not studying history, were my first impression. So it was a pleasure to meet the Renaissance and listen to their stories, and it continues to be true until now. But the more I learned about them, the more anxious and uncomfortable I grew up with. It's because of all the different and so contradictory aspects of the Renaissance that raised their heads from place to place. For me, the Renaissance is a painfully ‘white ’ world where, when I read something, there is a whole different story coming out of nowhere. This book is about intelligent men who have enlightened this wonderful, strange world. I think the Renaissance is the Age of Insults. A very strong reaction to his time led to the long past of the Renaissance, and, paradoxically, they looked back and went forward. Perhaps when readers discover in them a lot of confusion and contradiction, it's not just because of the reader, but because of them. Of course, in that context, the ‘brightness ’ of the often -orthodox of the Renaissance civilization was held in place by the uneasy spirit and uncomfortable inner space of the great people who kept it in motion. Among the “Mars”.
