Renaissance is literally rebirth. Presumably you're trying to get a word for birth of responsibility, combined with the feeling of "The Renaissance" as a period in history. It's a nice idea.
I just hate the spelling and pronunciation you've come up with. And even if I liked the word, I don't think a hard-to-pronounce, non-obvious neologism is the right choice for a book title.
