词源
Renaissance (n.)”great period of revival of classical-based art and learning in Europe that began in the fourteenth century,” 1840, from French renaissance des lettres, from Old French renaissance, literally “rebirth,” usually in a spiritual sense, from renastre “grow anew” (of plants), “be reborn” (Modern French renaître), from Vulgar Latin *renascere, from Latin renasci “be born again, rise again, reappear, be renewed,” from re- “again” (see re-) + nasci “be born” (Old Latin gnasci, from PIE root *gene- “give birth, beget”).
An earlier term for it was revival of learning (1785). In general usage, with a lower-case r-, “a revival” of anything that has long been in decay or disuse (especially of learning, literature, art), it is attested by 1855.

[Renaissance] was so far established as the English word for the thing before it was latinized or anglicized into
renascence that it is still the more intelligible of the two, & may well be left in possession. [Henry W. Fowler, “Modern English Usage,” Oxford: 1926. He does, however, recommend pronouncing it as English, “rinā’sns.”]

As an adjective, “of or pertaining to the Renaissance,” by 1842. Renaissance man is attested by 1885 in the basic sense of “a man alive during the Renaissance;” by 1898 particularly with a notion of “exhibiting the virtues and characteristics of an idealized man of the Renaissance,” humanism, scholarship, varied attainments, freedom of thought and personality; used by 1949 of modern or living persons, sometimes merely meaning “well-rounded.” Related entries & more

下面是词源的翻译(机器翻译比较难翻,参考着看)
文艺复兴(n.)“始于十四世纪的欧洲古典艺术和学术复兴的伟大时期”,1840,源自法语 renaissance des lettertres,源自古法语 renaissance,字面意思是“重生”,通常指精神意义上的,源自 renaastre “重新生长”(植物),“重生”(现代法语 renaître),源自通俗拉丁语 *renascere,源自拉丁语 renasci “重生,再次崛起,重新出现,更新”,源自 re- “再次” ” (参见 re-) + nasci “出生”(古拉丁语 gnasci,来自 PIE 词根 *gene-“生出,生出”)。它的早期术语是学习的复兴(1785)。在一般用法中,用小写的 r- 表示任何长期衰败或废弃的事物(尤其是学术、文学、艺术)的“复兴”,它在 1855 年得到证实。 [文艺复兴] 迄今为止被确立为在它被拉丁化或英语化为文艺复兴之前的英语单词,它仍然是两者中更容易理解的,并且很可能被保留。 [Henry W. Fowler,“现代英语用法”,牛津:1926 年。不过,他确实建议将其发音为英语,“rinā’sns。”] 到 1842 年,作为形容词,“属于或属于文艺复兴时期”。文艺复兴时期的人在 1885 年得到了证明,其基本含义是“文艺复兴时期活着的人”;到1898年,特别是“展示文艺复兴时期理想化的人的美德和特征”的概念,人文主义、学术、不同的成就、思想和个性的自由; 1949年用于现代人或活着的人,有时仅仅意味着“全面发展”。相关条目及更多
