During the European Renaissance, humanists advanced new education in Italy and other European countries, supported by the nobility and local rulers. Female education developed significantly during this period, benefiting not only from the Reformation of religious education, but also from the scientific and systematic nature of education. Educational opportunities for women of the peasant, merchant, and artisan classes in the cities increased, while the women of the upper nobility began to receive more education in areas such as physical education, fine arts, and history. Courses in practical applied sciences were incorporated into girls' education, enabling women to demonstrate more competence in the political, economic and cultural spheres. This laid the foundation for women's social participation and the subsequent feminist movement.
