Humanism during the Renaissance is different from any contemporary cultural movement. A contemporary cultural movement is more of a phase or period of time where something in art or literature is specifically popular. Humanism is a way of thinking that is influenced by Greek and Roman culture. Humanism also ends up having its own influence on things like art and literature during the renaissance. The major difference is though that influences of a movement are not always used for forever but influences of humanism like realistic art is still used today frequently.
