Type your answer here... patronage of Renaissance artists

Some historical events that happened between the years 1500s and the 1600s are the Renaissance, Italian Wars, and the reign of Henry the 8th. During the late 1500s the Europeans began establishing colonies in America.

in the middle ages, they used symbolism.

eg. gold background = heaven, rocks = earth

in the renaissance, they used much more realistic techniques. what you see is what it is like in reality (or close to it) and also they tend to use local landscape in the early renaissance artworks like The Tribute Money by Masaccio in c1427 where the landscape is of the Arno Valley whilst the painting is about St Peter paying a tax collector with money from a fish.

The black death originated central Asia and spread to Europe. It started because of unclean rodents (hamsters etc.) who had infected fleas. The Black Death or Plague bacteria multiply inside the flea, blocking its stomach (nasty!!) and causing it to become very hungry. The flea then bites a host and continuously feeds on its victim (because it is unable to satisfy its hunger). During the feeding process, infected blood carrying the plague bacteria flows from the fleas' stomach into the open wound. The plague bacteria then has a new host,which unfortunately includes Humans, and the flea eventually dies from starvation. ==== It is believed by many that the disease started in China, whose merchant shipsbrought it west, to Sicily. Near Italy. It was carried by fleas that were living on rats. Once in Italy, it soon spread throughout the rest of Europe. ==== It began in Asia, Merchant ships Brought it to Sicily, near Italy, Carrying the Bubonic Plague to many countries of Europe. Then spread through Europe and Asia killing about 50 million people in all. The Black Death or the Bubonic Plague and its Medieval World history and origins The deadly disease has been with man and part of world and medieval history for a very long time. It has claimed nearly 200 MILLION lives. The first recorded epidemic of the Black Death / Bubonic Plague was in Europe during the 6th Century. The disease truly became pandemic in 1328 - the medieval period of the history of the world. During this period a third of the world population died. We tend to associate the history of this terrible disease with Europe however it originated in the Gobi Desert. The Spread of the disease The disease spread throughout the Western world and reached pandemic proportions due to changes in lifestyle - people were moving from the country villages to highly populated towns. The formation of major cities and increased travel by various world civilisations, the disease rapidly spread throughout Asia. The Black Death (Bubonic Plague) followed the Trade Routes. The Trade routes provided access to all corners of the known world. The increased use of the trade routes ensured that the disease spread throughout the World. We should also remember that it was not just Europe and Africa that were devastated by the deadly disease. Countries such as China suffered horrendously from the 1328 outbreak with their population dropping from 125 million to 90 million during just the middle half of 14th century.

The Middle Ages and medieval times are the same thing. The word medieval is defined as the adjectival form for Middle Ages, and comes from Latin words meaning middle ages.

One thing to remember, however, is that while a given historian usually does not distinguish between the meanings of the two terms, historians disagree with each other about the dates of the period. So one historian might say the terms Middle Ages and medieval times both refer to the times from 476 to 1453, and another might say they both terms refer to the times from from 1066 to 1485.

There is a link below to an article on the Middle Ages.

The 12th century writer Alexander Neckham gives a first-hand description of the carts used at his time:

"The wheels are joined by an axletree, each on a different side. The axletree at the ends s encircled by a hub. The axle pins should be firmly fixed. Into the hub spokes are fitted, radiating out to the felloes . . .Let the outer rim of the wheel be fitted with an iron shoe . . . boards should be set on a framework as the body of the cart with sticks inserted into holes in the planks which go cross-wise, which are the side-pieces of the cart".

These two-wheeled vehicles were extremely common in medieval Europe, unlike four-wheeled wagons. They were made in specialist workshops which combined the skills of carpentry, ironwork and wheel-making, since all three were needed for the finished product. Iron was limited to axle-pins, wheel shoes and the fittings needed for the harness; everything else was of different types of wood.

In the 12th century carts had 8 spokes, not solid wheels.

A carter was a man who used a cart; the maker was called a cartwright.

The Medici's made their money in Florentine banking. They were the ruling aristocratic family in Florence. They had such wealth that their name is still widely known in Italy today.

His name was William Laud. As Archbishop of Canterbury he was considered High Church or an Anglo-Catholic. This combined with his opposition of radical Puritanism and support for Charles I sealed his fate and he was condemned as a traitor by the Long Parliament. He was executed on 10 January 1645.

The Protestants left the Roman Catholic Church after the Middle Ages ended, during the Renaissance.

They built palaces and kept a strong military. They were involved in all

aspects of life in the city. They were great supporters of artists, writers,

and musicians. The Medicis also defeated enemies who plotted against

the family or even to murder some of its members.

Tomatoes were not poisonous in medieval times any more than they are today. Also people in Europe of those days had no idea what a tomato was, because they were New World plants and had never been introduced to Europe.

The story of tomatoes being poisonous comes from scientists realizing that they were of the nightshade group, all of which have poisons in the plant. Physicians became afraid of tomatoes and advised their patients not to eat them because they believed there might be long term effects of small amounts of poison in them. This was true well into the 20th century, even though certain regional cuisines relied heavily on tomatoes. My mother was advised not to eat tomatoes by her doctor in the 1920s. I can remember seeing a man on television (perhaps "I've got a Secret"), when I was a child, who claimed he was the first person ever to eat a tomato and live, which might have been true, if what he meant was that he the first person in his community in North Dakota to try one.

There are two Renaissances that I know of: a) The Medieval Renaissance: This was a time in Europe when art, literature and music flourished (mostly art and literature). Leonardo DaVinci, an Italian artist lived during this era, famous for creating religious paintings and The Mona Lisa. I'm not sure if this is correct, but I think the Bubonic Plague broke out during this era. b) The Harlem Renaissance: This took place in Harlem, NYC, when art, music, and literature by blacks flourished. It took place in the 1920's, right before the crash of '29 and after world war I. A new style of music developed: Jazz. George Gershwin and Jelly Roll Morton (wrote Bohemian Rhapsody in Blue) were famous Jazz musicians. Dancers also took part in this renaissance. I believe a famous talent show during the time was Vaudeville (I could be wrong). Many poets also took part in the Renaissance. Answered by Alessandra (please visit my site, raoallie.com and alessandrarao.com)

the difference between the renaissance and the middle ages is that the middle ages was a time of survival and religious belives. During the middle ages people still believed in god. Also, there were many raids, and travel was not safe. People focused on getting enough food and survivng in the harsh way of life. The middle ages is known as the dark ages because of how harsh people lived. On the other hand the renaissance was of time of rebith, invention, and bring back the classic ways of the Greek and Roman ideas. People lived in luxury and enjoyed life unlike the people of the medival era, otherwise known as the middle ages.

Really, farming improved all through the Middle Ages.

There were a large number of developments that effected medieval farming. Some of them were European inventions, others were European adoption of ideas invented elsewhere. Also, a number of crops were introduced to different parts of Europe from Islamic countries, and while much of this was in Spain of the 8th century, some of it was in places like Hungary, much later. Hops were a new crop developed internally in Europe, and there might have been others.

Many of the improvements cannot be dated, and some cannot even be placed geographically. Among those that came early, were the horseshoe, the horse collar, the heavy plow, and the European type of wheelbarrow, all of which were early medieval developments. Three field crop rotation may have come later.

Some inventions did not improve farming directly, but improved farming by improving markets that were available for farmers. These things included such things as the inventions of new spinning wheels and looms, and the invention of distilling brandy and whiskey.

There is a related question below about what the improvements were.

The Golden Ratio. the Greek people thought that if your face measurements were the golden ratio measurements, your face would be found pleasing. The Golden Ratio was used in Greeks statues and mounuments frequently.

There are really no similarties between these two areas. As you're text book might read 'This was a era for Europe'. There were no wars durning this period and monarchy pretty much ended. The rebirth although started in Florence, Italy because of there wealth from controlling the Mediterrainen at the time. The richest family might have been the medici family also. Hope this helps! Answer by: Dad47

Religious thought and ideas changed somewhat - Lollards, Hussites, Martin Luther and Calvin all rejected, in one form or another, Christian Doctrine as presented by the Catholic Church. However, this is more to do with religious doctrine than philosophy as such.

Women were less likely to rule than men, and in many countries they never did. There were a fair number of queens who ruled, however, and there were also a lot of women who were in control of duchies, counties, and estates. They did not usually serve as advisers for kings unless they were close relatives. I am unaware of any who were lawyers or sheriffs, but there might have been some. There is a link below to a list of queens in Europe who ruled in their own right.
