Reformation Concepts and Understanding AP Euro ? Questions 1.?MAIN IDEA/QUESTION: Why would the Reformation begin in a Northern European region, NOT in Italy, the ?home? of humanism? The focus of Italian humanism was secular humanism, or gaining knowledge and development as an individual. The focus on Northern Humanism was the reform and better understanding of the Church and Bible. The Northerners would have had more response time to the Church in Rome and thus would have had more time in turn to respond to the Catholics. To help you get there? A. Who were the Brothers and Sisters of the Common Life? B. What famous people of the period had studied there? C. What were their contributions or impacts?

Abigail Wright Reger 1 31/8/14 AP European History FRQ - Renaissance Once Italian Renaissance begins, the ideas and conceptions of individuals in society changes drastically from previous thoughts. During the Middle Ages, people were focused only on life after death, Christian humility, and that the ruler?s role in society was to rule only by following basic Christian principles. People who changed this way of thinking were called humanists. Three ways that the Renaissance revolutionized the ideas of individuals was through the ideas of secularism, individualism, and the ruler?s role in society.

Humanism is the philosophy where the human form and reason are at the center of all things. Greeks were interested in the recognizable and physical world rather than the afterlife and nature. They created ideal sculptures from universal features such as the perfect nose, torso, and other body parts rather than making different body types that they felt were not perfect. To the Greeks humans were the center of all things and the supreme subject of art. The picture shown in the assessment is known as Kroisos found in Anavyssos. This marble sculpture is dated back to 530 BCE sculpted by an unknown artist. This sculpture is from the archaic period for many reasons. The archaic period is responsible for the introduction of the kouroi.

Created humanism. Came to mean Classical scholarship, wanted to master the classics. Sought to enrich than to undermine traditional religious attitudes.
