A ‘Renaissance Man’, or polymath, is a person who possesses a broad base of knowledge and is skilled in multiple fields or disciplines, and to whom all manner of human knowledge existed as part of an integrated, ordered whole, rather than separate, exclusive ideas. The term traditionally referred to the various artists and scholars of the European Renaissance, such as Leonardo da Vinci, whose intellectual and creative powers encompassed the realms of not just the visual arts but also botany, civil engineering and military science.
