The city that was center of Renaissance in England is London. Hope that this helps!!!!!! :)

Kings sometimes lost power by alienating their vassals to the point of rebellion. King John of England had this happen to him. When they stood their ground against him, he signed the Magna Carta to stay in power. Another king who lost power to rebellious lords was Richard III; in his case, he died in battle.

Kings lost power by getting into arguments with the popes, or sometimes with bishops. King Henry II of England had this happen, as did Emperor Henry IV of the Holy Roman Empire. In both cases, the monarchs were very powerful, tried to grab power from the Church, and lost a great deal of the power they had.

Some kings were overthrown by family members. King Edward II of England is an example; his wife and her lover imprisoned him and are widely believed to have killed him.

Some kings were overthrown by other people. This happened when Pepin the Short overthrew Childeric III and became King of the Franks.

A king could lose a war with a foreign enemy. When King Edward II of England fought against the Scots and lost, it did not cost him any part of England, but it meant that the King of Scotland was no longer his vassal.

Bernini used the pyramid configuration to create figures that had more stability and harmony.

Authors focused a little bit on feelings in literature, and emotions. They had human -like subjects. The invention of the printing press helped encourage people the read literature and authors to gain fame. the literature was a change from the old, and very different because of the information of different cultures from the crusaders.

hope that helps a bit.

No you are wrong. George W. Bush sent a execution order to burn every book in the county. Thus creating a rebelion amounst the shakespeare clans of the land dwellers. This war continues today in the underground railroad

They had very few rights, compared to today. They were legally the property of their father or husband, and only the most wealthy upper-class women had the freedom to study or to travel. Upper-class women might have a private tutor, or they might attend one of the newly-established girls' schools, where they learned music, the arts, literature, religion, and basic mathematics. But again, the right to attend such a school was contingent on the father or other male members of the household approving of the idea; and no universities in Europe would have accepted a female student at that time. Many upper-class women had some business training so that they could effectively run a home with servants and maintain a budget; some of these women were able to afford nice clothing, and thanks to family money, they could become patrons of the arts. But few women, even in the upper class, were able to make independent decisions about their life. And if you were a lower class woman, you were generally not able to study at all, nor decide upon the direction your life would take. You went to work as a young girl, and learned the skills that were considered necessary to make your employer happy. Your life was about raising children and obeying your husband's wishes. Now and then, a lower-class young woman was fortunate enough to have a progressive employer who saw her intelligence and gave her a chance to study with a tutor; but this was the exception rather than the rule.

ERASMUS WAS A RENAISSANCE WRITER -- A Roman Catholic humanist philosopher; he advocated reform of the Church on the basis of study of sacred texts (regular reading of scripture by laity). He believed what the church needed was not institutional reform but "true religion": the inward, true love of God and love (service) of neighbors. -- He also considered becoming a monk, but it didn't work out, so he became a priest! Erasmus translated the Bible into Greek!

The two explorers were Columbus and Newport.

They are not the same thing. The Middle Ages ended with the beginning of the Renaissance. There was a slight overlapping of the periods, but they were two distinct periods in European history.

Renaissance is an endeavour to return to the ideas, values and art of the Greek and Roman antique. Art is the expression of a mind, and minds change as we discover the world and have different feelings about it. The mediaeval world was a profoundly religious place and this shows in all of its arts which generally portray a deep devotion. There were also elements of great fear of violence, witches and demons. The Renaissance (literally "rebirth") in Italy was by no means an abrupt shift in perspective. It began in the early fifteenth century and lasted several centuries and reflected a new confidence in humans rather than in God. Portraits and sculpture depicted more and more humans rather than spiritual beings and such works took on a new vitality which contrasted with the venerability of such works previously. In architecture, the change was marked by forms that reflected Ancient Roman techniques and styles. Music and literature began to be about people rather than sacred subjects.

The same as the purpose of any art- to try and reveal some innate truth about nature through a display of beauty.

The usual explanation is that the Middle Ages started with the fall of the West Roman Empire in 476 AD, and lasted until the fall of Constantinople, which was the capital of the East Roman Empire, in 1453.

The events that caused the fall of the West Roman Empire were the migrations of Germanic tribes into the Roman Empire, where they settled and formed kingdoms. The kingdoms were nominal in the Roman Empire, with the exception of the Vandal Kingdom in North Africa and the various kingdoms in Britain, but the kings never gave much support to the empire, and so its power declined to nothing in the West.

It was no longer only about religion.

It became more secular.

It was no longer only about religion.

People became more the focus of art.

And artists tried to paint realistically.

The usual definition of the middle ages places it after the age of antiquity or ancient times. The date for beginning of the middle ages is variously placed at different years in the fifth century, perhaps with 476 being the most often used.

There is a definition of the middle ages that places it as being after the dark ages, beginning the dark ages in the fifth century and the middle ages in the year 1000. Some historians regard this naming as old fashioned.

In art, "perspective" is the viewpoint of the artist and the audience. Some art is made from an overhead perspective, such as a pictorial survey of a city; other art is made from a ground-level perspective or from a distance. There are also ways to distort the perspective and to deliberately incorporate several different perspectives into one piece.

This is a teacher generated question or from a textbook. The reader can not know who "these men" are since they are not listed in the question. Time to open your book and figure it out.

Catherine de Medici is the mother of high heeled shoes. Leonardo da Vinci supposedly helped her with this invention so she could impress the Royal Court of France. she also held the very first ballet.

Cathrine de medici is a woman who was born April 13 1533 and married Henry duke of urbino and had ten children but three did not survive pregnancyshe was very cruel only sometimes she was a queen of three of her sons who were king because her husband died in a jousting accident.

Lorenzo Di Medici was the ruler of Florentine Republic. His reign fell during the Renaissance period. He was a rich man and was known as a patron of artists, poets and scholars. He supported artistes like Michelangelo and Botticelli. During his reign he also played a vital role in maintaining peace with other Italian states, which ended with his death at the age of only 43.

I will answer this question because I believe you are referring to Medieval Europe, but use and prevalence (and taste) would be dependant on the global region in question.

Yes. Beer drinking in the Middle Ages was common for a number of reasons.

Health

One accepted line of thought is that beer became popular in Europe because it was a healthier alternative to water. This was because the 'cooking' phased required for fermentation had the bonus effect of sterilising the liquid, making it a safer alternative to the comparably 'dirty' drinking water. This was probably truer of larger towns, but it is a strong hypothesis.

Added Calories

Meals for the majority of the population in Medieval Europe were wheat and liquid based, with stews, soups and bread making up the vast majority of their caloric intake. Beer had become the standard beverage, drank by both sexes and all ages. The calories provided by the thick beverage added to the overall nutrition of medieval Europeans and offset the comparably frugal meals.

Vogue and Cheer

The best brews came from what might be considered a surprising source: local monasteries. Monks used beer as an alternative source of calories especially during fasting times. Consumption of liquid during times of fast was permissible in St. Benedict's code, and beer drinking was interpreted as permissible. Monks became skilled brewmasters and even derived a substantial income from monastery owned licensed pubs and alehouses. Pubs eventually became popular meeting places for the local population and beer became the point of focus around which much socialisation and cheer was shared - a tradition that is still seen today.

In fact, the 15th Century ushered in the development of the standard of the Flavorings License on Continental Europe. This was similar to a patent and acted to ensure that brewing became a growing and respected, legal trade.

i don't think this is it, but a small change was that peasants had to work from sun-up to sun-down doing excruciatingly physically demanding work in the middle ages. in the reinassance they moved to cities. after the plague, price adn demand of goods went up, and peasants became a shortage and need, creating better conditions and wages for a few decades. also, some peasants became part of the new middle class of bankers, merchants, etc.

Both forks and spoons were used throughout the Middle Ages, and both originated in ancient times. In particular, the spoon certainly goes back to prehistoric times.

Forks were unpopular as table utensils in Western Europe of the Early Middle Ages, though they were used for cooking and carving. They became popular for table use in different parts of Europe at different times.

Spoons were very commonly used during throughout the Middle Ages, as people ate a lot of gruel, soup, and stew.

The Renaissance era played a role in launching the age of exploration. People of this era began to question, think, and attempt to prove observations rather than just accept.
