What was the Renaissance?
Renaissance = “a re-birth” or a return to classical thought and style developed by the ancient Greek and Romans
Time of creativity and change – political, social, and cultural
New attitudes towards culture and learning
Renaissance thinkers were eager to explore the richness and variety of human experience in the here and now and emphasis on individual achievement

Why Italy?• Italy’s thriving urban cities were
the center for the renewed trade coming in from the Middle East that brought in wealth and culture here first before the rest of Europe
• Italy was the center of ancient Roman history, Architectural remains, antique statues, coins and inscriptions – all visual reminders of the “glory that was Rome”

Italian City States The civilization of the Italian
Renaissance was urban, centered on towns that had become prosperous from manufacturing, trade, and banking.
Italians had acquired considerable wealth, and some of this wealth was used to support writers, scholars, and artists.
During the Renaissance, Italy remained divided politically. In northern Italy, the city-states of Florence, Milan, and Venice became major centers of the Renaissance civilization.
Rome dominated the Papal States of central Italy, while the Kingdom of the Two Sicily's embraced most of southern Italy.

The Protestant Reformation
What was the Protestant Reformation??
Began with Desiderius Erasmus, who called for reform of the church and for the bible to be translated from Latin into the vernacular, or language of ordinary people.
He challenged the worldliness of church practices and urged a return to early Christian traditions.
During the Middle Ages the church began to renew itself from within and the movement for change created reforms that destroyed Christian unity in Europe

He began to observe the corruption of the Catholic church
![Page 48: Renaissance 3](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c5abe1bb61eb4f1f8b4725/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Johann Tetzle
German Priest
Set up a pulpit on the outskirts of Wittenberg and began to sell indulgences to any Christian who contributed money for the construction of St. Peters Basilica in Rome
Tetzle would make the claim that the purchase of these indulgences would assure them the entrance into heaven and also for their relatives
“As soon as the coin in the coffer rings, a soul from purgatory springs”
![Page 49: Renaissance 3](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c5abe1bb61eb4f1f8b4725/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Attack on Indulgences
The sale of indulgences insulted the pious Martin Luther
People should not be buying indulgences to be accepted into heaven they should be seeking true repentance through prayer and living a virtuous life
![Page 50: Renaissance 3](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c5abe1bb61eb4f1f8b4725/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
95 Theses
Outraged over the corruption of the catholic church and sale of indulgences he wrote 95 thesis or a list of arguments against the church and sale of indulgences
These arguments argued that indulgences had no basis in the bible ad that the pope had no authority to release souls from purgatory and that Christians can only be saved through faith alone.
![Page 51: Renaissance 3](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c5abe1bb61eb4f1f8b4725/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
95 Theses Versus the Catholic Church
Copies of Luther's 95 complaints against the church spread across Europe

![Page 52: Renaissance 3](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c5abe1bb61eb4f1f8b4725/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)

![Page 53: Renaissance 3](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c5abe1bb61eb4f1f8b4725/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Luther's Teachings
Many renounced the authority of the pope and followed Luther's lead
Main Arguments:
He argued that salvation could be achieved through faith alone
he rejected the church doctrine that good deeds were necessary for salvation
Declared that the bible was the sole source of religious truth
Rejected the idea that priests and the Church hierarchy had special powers
![Page 54: Renaissance 3](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c5abe1bb61eb4f1f8b4725/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Lutheranism
Many of the clergy began to see Luther's reforms as the answer to corruption in the Roman Catholic Church
While some embraced Luther's ideas to better the church others took advantage of his movement as a way to throw off the rule of both the church ad the holy roman empire.
![Page 55: Renaissance 3](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c5abe1bb61eb4f1f8b4725/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Peasants’ Revolt
Peasants hoped to gain support by Luther to create social and economic change as well as religious reform
1524 – Peasants Revolt erupted across Germany and demanded an end to serfdom
Luther denounced this revolt because he did not see himself as a social reformer
Nobles suppressed the rebellion killing between 70,000 and 100,000 people
![Page 56: Renaissance 3](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c5abe1bb61eb4f1f8b4725/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
John Calvin
French trained priest and lawyer
1536 – published the Institutes of the Christian Religion
This book was read by protestants everywhere and set forth his religious beliefs
Also provided advice on how to organize and effectively run a Protestant Church
![Page 57: Renaissance 3](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c5abe1bb61eb4f1f8b4725/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Comparing the 2
Similarities – salvation was gained through faith alone, bible was the only source of religious truth
Differences – Calvin believed that god was all powerful and that humans were by nature sinful
And he believed that god alone decided your fate whether an individual achieved eternal life – prayer and good deeds could not change your out come
Pre destination : the idea that god had long ago determined who would gain salvation ad who would not
![Page 58: Renaissance 3](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c5abe1bb61eb4f1f8b4725/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Calvins Geneva
1541 protestants in the city-state geneva, switzerland asked calvin to lead their community
Calvin set up a theocracy, or government run by church leaders
Calvinistic society looked down upon elaborate dress, and harsh punishments for swearing, fighting and laughing in church
To many protestants the emphasis on strict social order made calvinist geneva a model community
![Page 59: Renaissance 3](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c5abe1bb61eb4f1f8b4725/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Spread of Calvinism
Many individuals would travel to Geneva to gain insight on the model community to spread calins ideals
The spread of Calvinism set off a series of bloody wars of religion across Europe
Germany: Calvinists faced oppositions from Lutherans as well as from Catholics
French Calvinists know as Huguenots waged war with Catholics in the late 1500s
Scotland – john knox led a a religious rebellion where scottish protestants overthrew their catholic queen and set up the scottish presbyterian church
