Renaissance

* umm..Donno!!! * I am not sure!!!

As the result to the Renaissance studies, European ideas changed.

the demand for luxury goods led to an increase in trade this made many tradesmen wealthy

The Renaissance was a period of great cultural and intellectual growth in Europe, marked by advancements in art, science, and philosophy. It encouraged a renewed interest in classical learning and sparked innovations in various fields, leading to major developments in art, architecture, literature, and science. This period laid the foundation for the modern world and significantly influenced the course of Western history.

Roughly 1450-1600

Answer: Literally, renaissance means a "rebirth", or "revival". It is a time period when interest in art, literature, education, and other similar subjects, along with interest in Ancient Greece and Rome, was reborn.

A group of people in Italy, Florence. It was an age for new ideas to the Europeans.

It started because of the advances inmany subjects; mathematics, more specifically geometry,and because of the political structure this includes the power of the medichi family.

The Renaissance (French for "rebirth"; Italian : Rinascimento, from ri- "again" and nascere "be born" was a cultural movement that spanned roughly the 14th to the 17th century, beginning in Florence in the late middle ages and later spreading to the rest of Europe The term is also used more loosely to refer to the historic era but since the changes of the Renaissance were not uniform across Europe, this is a general use of the term. As a cultural movement, it encompassed a resurgence of learning based on classical sources, the development of line new perspective in painting, and gradual but widespread reform. Traditionally, this intellectual transformation has resulted in the Renaissance being viewed as a bridge between the middle ages and the modern era. Although the Renaissance saw revolutions in many intellectual pursuits, as well as social and political upheaval, it is perhaps best known for its artistic developments.

The way that the renaissance revolutionised European art & thought was that before the renaissance, people mainly only painted things to do with religion. Pictures were also mainly painted in 2D. When the renaissance occured, these things changed.

Individual ability became important during the renaissance.

the importance was that it helped increased wealth in Europe at the time. it also began the age of exploration. it introduced Europe to new ship routes and made communication easier between countries/cities in Europe and between the whole continent of Europe itself and other continents, such as Asia.

The most important city-states were Venice, Naples, Milan, Florence and Pisa. I cannot tell you what is the most important of them all, or the importance of any, because thats how I stumbled on this myself. But Im pretty sure my answer is better than EUROPE.

One thing that is important about Milan, is they manufactured metal goods.

The official definition of the word renaissance is "the activity, spirit, or time of the great revival of art, literature, and learning in Europe beginning in the 14th century and extending to the 17th century, marking the transition from the medieval to the modern world."

The Crusaders contributed to the increase of trade by demanding more of the goods found in Asia. This increased demand, in turn, led to yet more trade with the Muslim world. Using what they had learned, such as navigation techniques, Europeans then sought trade with civilizations on other continents. Contacts with Muslim scholars and their preserved greek and roman texts brought the Europeans a wealth of knowledge about medicine, art and government, much of which contributed to the change and learning during the Renaissance.

Any good gunsmith can find or make parts for your shotgun. It might take several weeks to a year or more. Parker Brothers are a top of the line shotgun, and a shotgun in working shape is worth more than a broken one. Do some checking around at a local gun show, or surf the web for parts.

hygiene was severly poor, due to the poor hygiene diseases like cholera and influenza spread very quickly and consequnetly killed 1 in 20 british people in the 1500's.

sewage often flowed down the streets with people having to walk through it.

it was said that more people married in may and June as these were the times when the poor had their yearly baths!

It brought new ideas and thoughts, it wasn't all religion anymore.

If you've ever taken an art history class, or even one in art appreciation, you know that the era they call "The Renaissance" is held in reverence something just short of the Second Coming. This "reawakening" is set up on a historic pedestal intended to inspire a worshipful awe as everyone from the highest high-priest-art-history-professor to the lowest graduate-student-teaching-assistant-altar-boy marches around it swirling incense, and sprinkling holy water while intoning the words "Raphaellllllll...Michelangelooooo... Leonardoooooo". Meanwhile all we art appreciators genuflect and murmur an appreciative background litany of gasping ooooo's and ahhhhhhhh's at every Madonna, David, and Mona flashed upon the screen for us to identify, categorise, and immortalise. Then when it is all done, we take an essay test and I'll bet dollars to donuts the very first question is: "Discuss the causes relevant to the development of the Renaissance and their effect upon the various forms of art of the time." (Or something to that effect.)

Well, let me answer the first part of that question in one word--money. Of course that's a gross oversimplification and would rate a single word response--explain! Actually, it's not only an oversimplification, it's a bit inaccurate - credit would be a better response. Now, let me explain. During the Middle Ages, there were two-forms of trade--gold, and barter. Gold was in short supply until the New World explorers robbed the native Americans and flooded Europe with it. And Barter was terribly inefficient. Credit, on the other hand (basically letters of credit), couldn't be easily stolen, weighed very little, and was an efficient way of transferring huge amounts of wealth. Which brings us back to the original answer--money. Without large amounts of it, there were only fortress prisons in which those who had accumulated some wealth relied upon ugly stone walls to avoid being murdered in their sleep. However, when it became economically feasible to enclose an entire city in fortress walls, then those with money could begin to relax and enjoy it, which meant a craving for beauty that meant art. The city of Florence, Italy, is a classic example.

Italy (and its newly minted middle classes), jutting its booted peninsula out into the maritime trade lanes of the Mediterranean, was ideally suited to taste and enjoy this new-found prosperity first. They spent the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries accumulating wealth and the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries enjoying it. In Florence, even though the palazzos of the Medici and other wealthy families still have a prison-like quality to them, inside, as they open into delightfully sunny courtyards, there are windows, which mean light--light to see paintings hanging on walls, to weave tapestries, to admire garden sculpture, fountains, and manicured landscapes. And with wealth comes time--time to enjoy reading and writing poetry, music, great novels, opera, and high fashion. All of these things come together to define the Renaissance and to impact the arts. So, the next time you take an art history course, and it comes time for the final exam, just cut and paste this explanation and you'll be home free. I HOPE THIS HELPED! The earlier years of the Middle Ages, which began with the collapse of the Roman Empire, were marked by the absence of an effective centeral government and the constant threat of famine and disease ( Black Death, 1340s) , and foreign invasion.
