Who were the three great dramatists in the Renaissance?

They are william shakespeare of England, Tang Xianzu of China and Cervantes Saavedra of Spain.

1, the richness of William Shakespeare's drama plots has always been praised. Generally, there are two or more clues in his plays that develop in parallel or alternately, some of which are distinct in primary and secondary, some of which complement each other and set off each other, which makes the characters, events and conflicts in the plays rich and complicated and easy to achieve vivid dramatic effects.

2. Tang Xianzu has made many achievements, among which opera creation is the most important. His dramatic works, The Story of Rebirth, The Story of Purple Hairpin, The Story of Conan and The Story of Handan, are collectively called "Linchuan Four Dreams", among which The Story of Rebirth (Peony Pavilion) is his masterpiece.

Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra is regarded as the greatest writer in Spanish literature. His work Don Quixote reached the pinnacle of Spanish classical art, marking a new stage of European modern realistic novel creation.

Thought of work:

Renaissance works embody humanism: advocating individual liberation and opposing asceticism and religious views in the Middle Ages; Advocate scientific culture, oppose obscurantism, and get rid of the shackles of the church on people's thoughts; Affirm human rights, oppose theocracy, and abandon all authority and traditional dogma as the basis of theology and scholasticism.

Supporting centralization and opposing feudal separatism are the main ideas of humanism. Among them, the representative works are Dante's Divine Comedy, Boccaccio's decameron, Petrarch's Song, Machiavelli's The Prince, and rabelais's Biography of the Giant.

Renaissance art praised the beauty of the human body, claiming that the proportion of the human body is the most harmonious in the world, and applied it to architecture. Although a series of paintings and sculptures still focus on religious stories, they all show the scenes of ordinary people and pull God to the ground.
