Warm-up part 2 Rewrite this question in your own words “How did the Renaissance change man’s view of man?” Looking at your background essay, what are three ways you believe the Renaissance has changed man’s view of man? Causes of the Renaissance During the Late middle ages, Europe suffered from both war and plague. Those who survived need something to live for, to make them happy again. They wanted to celebrate the life and the human spirit The Renaissance means “rebirth” European Renaissance (1300-1600s): rebirth of ideas and culture reminiscent of Greece & Rome Started in Italy The Renaissance followed the Middle Ages Primary development in urban centers (cities) Why Italy? 1. Thriving cities 2. A wealthy merchant class 3. Classical heritage of Greece and Rome Florence, Italy main Italian city-state (a city and its surrounding lands functioning as an independent political unit) where Renaissance began Became wealthiest city-state Renaissance ideas spread from Italy to other European locations Venice used its coastal location for international trade Crusades opened up trade in the Mediterranean Sea Renaissance… POLITICAL IMPORTANCE -society was mainly run by wealthy merchant families -ex: The Medici- powerful banking family in Florence ECONOMIC IMPORTANCE -these families traded w/ many other countries and spread Renaissance “ideas” -traded w/ Byzantine & Islamic Empires, England & the Netherlands Renaissance… Social Importance: time of recovery from Black Plague & political instability Italian thinkers emphasized humanism Humanism: focus on importance of the individual & positive human qualities The Renaissance put more emphasis on the work and worth of the individual Looking to Greece and Rome 1. The artists and scholars of Italy drew inspiration from the ruins of Rome that surrounded them. 2. Western scholars studied ancient Latin manuscripts that had been preserved in monasteries. 3. Christian scholars in Constantinople fled to Rome with Greek manuscripts when the Turks conquered Constantinople in 1453. Humanists Focus on human potential and achievements Instead of trying to make classical texts agree with Christian teachings, as medieval scholars had, humanists studied them to understand ancient Greek values. Made popular the study of subjects such as history, literature, and philosophy. These subjects are called the humanities. Petrarch “The father of Humanism” Believed God gave people intelligence & talents that should be used to the fullest in all aspects of life Credited with perfecting the sonnet (14 line poem) Known for being one of the first people to refer to the Dark Ages “Renaissance Man” During this period, Renaissance writers introduced the idea that all educated people were expected to create art. In fact, the individual should strive to excel in almost every area of study. Someone who excels in multiple fields/ has many talents is considered a ‘Renaissance Man’ He should be charming, witty, and well educated in the classics. He should dance, sing, play music, and write poetry. In addition he should be a skilled rider, wrestler, and swordsman! Modern Day examples Will Smith Justin Timberlake Who else can you think of ?

So where did Protestantism come from? Martin Luther Note: He is not black, he IS NOT MARTIN LUTHER KING JR Catholic monk & professor Began to disagree with many aspects of Catholicism Ex: selling indulgences. what is this? Slips of paper purchased from the Church which granted forgiveness of sins -believed people could only have salvation by mercy of God, not by doing good deeds like Catholic church said “As soon as a coin in the coffer rings, the soul from purgatory springs.” --John Tetzel \ Martin Luther… Eventually broke away from Catholic church Publicly posted, printed, & distributed his 95 Theses which attacked Catholic practices Martin Luther… His ideas became a catalyst for the Protestant Reformation Lutheranism (named after Martin Luther) developed as the 1st Protestant faith John Calvin He’s in Switzerland Early convert to Protestantism Wrote summary of Protestant beliefs, established him as leader within the faith Believed in predestination, God is all powerful & has already decided who will receive salvation & who will not Eventually “Calvinism” became the foundation for the Presbyterian church Johannes Gutenberg Printed 1st Bible in Europe with movable type Movable type- allowed ideas of Protestant Reformation to spread rapidly New printing industry- encouraged more people to learn/read Gave people more access to religious texts & literature Just how fast was the printing press?????
