Greek!. There was interest as well in the by-then defunct Roman Empire, but much of what the Romans had built and thought, they had taken from Greek origins!.

"Renaissance thinkers sought out learning from ancient texts, typically written in Latin or ancient Greek!. Scholars scoured Europe's monastic libraries, searching for works of classical antiquity which had fallen into obscurity!. In such texts they found a desire to improve and perfect their worldly knowledge; an entirely different sentiment to the transcendental spirituality stressed by medieval Christianity!. They did not reject Christianity; quite the contrary, many of the Renaissance's greatest works were devoted to it, and the Church patronized many works of Renaissance art!. However, a subtle shift took place in the way that intellectuals approached religion that was reflected in many other areas of cultural life!."
