All of the other answers about politics and scholars and such are true - there is no one, simple answer. In a nutshell, though - Italian trade had made a great many people filthy, stinking rich and I'm not exaggerating. That gave some of them enough power to tell the Vatican to back off, educationally in particular, and it gave them money to afford both education and the finer things in life. If the Vatican hadn't been curtailed we'd still be living in the dark ages.
