Around 25 million (1/3 of the population died). People’s faith in God was shaken and the church lost a lot of its power and importance. Relations between upper and lower class changed. Workers in short demand now wanted higher wages and staged uprisings. Compare these works of art. What do you notice? An Era of Awakening In the early 1300’s a movement began in Italy that began to altar how Europeans viewed themselves and the world. The ___________________________________ (“rebirth”): both a philosophical and artistic movement and the era when that movement flourished. Marked by renewed interest in ancient Greek and Roman literature and life. A new emphasis on the power of human reason developed, and many advances were made in the arts and sciences. Causes of the Italian Renaissance Natural for the Renaissance to begin in Italy Italian cities (Florence, Milan, Naples, Rome, and Venice) had grown rich _____________________________________________ and industry. Their citizens included educated, wealthy _________________________________________. Ruins of the Roman Empire, The Crusades, trade with southwest Asia & Africa (learned of Arab and African achievements in science and medicine) = encouraged curiosity and the search for new knowledge among some Italian thinkers. The Humanities The study of ______________________________________________ to learn grammar, history, poetry, and rhetoric. People who specialize in these studies are humanists.

Niccolo Machiavelli A Florentine writer, diplomat, _______________________________ Sought to _____________________________ the way in which it actually worked. (dog eat dog) Argued that a ruler should be concerned only ____________________________________ Today some people refer to _______________________________ to get ahead as “Machiavellian.” “A controversy has arisen about this: whether it is better to be loved than feared, or vice versa. My view is that it is desirable to be both loved and feared; but it is difficult to achieve both and if one of them has to be lacking, it is much safer to be feared than loved…. Men are less hesitant about offending or harming a ruler who makes himself less loved than one who inspires fear. For love is sustained by a bond of gratitude, which because men are excessively self-interested, is broken whenever they see a chance to benefit themselves. But fear is sustained by a dread of punishment that is always effective.” Considered a humanist because he looked to __________________________________ as models, but his lack of concern for conventional morality was considerably different than other humanists of this time. Italian Renaissance Art Start to see more _________________________ and images that depict _______________________________________________. Earlier artists often portrayed the Holy Land, while___________________________________showed the rugged Italian countryside they knew so well.

Quote from Utopia “…wherever you are, you always have to work. There’s never any excuse for idleness… Everyone has his eye on you, so you’re practically forced to get on with your job, and make some proper use of your spare time. Under such a system, there’s bound to be plenty of everything, and, as everything is divided equally among the entire population, there obviously can’t be any poor people or beggars.” Became very popular and translated to many ________________________________ languages.

Jan and Hubert van Eyck (The Flemish Brothers): paid great attention to detail and used facial expressions in their work. Pieter Brueghel the Elder painted in the mid 1500’s Loved to paint the countryside and peasants of his native Flanders. William Shakespeare William Shakespeare was born April 23, 1564 in Stratford-on-Avon, a local government district in England. He attended school at King Edward IV Grammar School in his hometown where he learned Latin and some Greek. He also studied the classics which later influenced his writing (humanist). At the young age of 18, he married a girl named Anne Hathaway and they had three children. Two daughters, Susanna and Judith. Judith had a twin brother that died at a very young age. He started out at an apprenticeship to be an actor. He then developed into a playwright and actor. In 1594 he joined the Lord Chamberlain’s company of actors and then in 1599 joined the Chamberlain’s Men where they built and operated the Globe (one of the most famous theaters of its time). Shakespeare is known for his great playwrights, but he looked to poetry for enduring fame. He wrote many sonnets, including 154 in the Sonnets of Shakespeare, that almost all show the inevitable decay of time and the immortalization of beauty and love. Within his poems and plays he invented thousands of words that often combine Latin, French, and native roots. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, he is credited with such words as arch-villain, birthplace, bloodsucking, courtship, dewdrop, downstairs, leapfrog, watchdog, and many more. He wrote more than 30 plays that can be placed into four categories including histories, comedies, tragedies, and romances. In his early playwright years they were mostly comedies or histories like the Comedy of Errors and Henry VI. Then he turned to tragedies like Romeo and Juliet. Then in his late years he turned to romance like A Winter’s Tale and The Tempest. Only 18 of his plays were published during his lifetime. It was sometime after 1612 that he decided to retire and return to his home in Stratford. He then died on April 23, 1616.
