Here are some interesting tidbits about how each factor helped to spread Renaissance ideas across Europe:

Book fairs were excellent ways for authors, students, and booksellers to come together and share Renaissance ideas.

Universities cultivated literacy, curiosity, and familiarity with the classics. This laid the basis for the Renaissance movement.

Trade routes acted like information highways where Renaissance ideas, technologies, books, and artifacts were transported throughout Europe.

Printing presses generated books at a fast pace and produced them in the regional languages of the people. This made Renaissance ideas more accessible to the common man or woman.
