The Renaissance Outcome: The Renaissance in Italy

Renaissance means rebirth (#1)

Why call the next Era in European History “The Renaissance?”

The Renaissance The Middle Ages Ends Europe is starting to take shape with England, France, and regions in Italy all evolving Revival of culture Return to cities The Church was still powerful Writers and artists began to express new ideas and styles

The Renaissance What is the Renaissance? Renaissance: Rebirth in art, writing, architecture, learning, and culture. The educated hoped to bring back to life the culture of classical Greece and Rome In doing so, they created something entirely new: innovative styles of art and literature The Renaissance eventually spread from northern Italy (2a) to the rest of Northern Europe (2b) Occurred roughly 1300-1600

Florence was the epicenter of the Italian Renaissance. # 3 City States Florence was the epicenter of the Italian Renaissance.

The Renaissance Why Italy? Italy had 3 distinct advantages (#4) City-States (#4 part a) Overseas trade, spurred by the Crusades had led to growth of large city-states Thus, northern Italy was urban while the rest of Europe was still rural Cities were the place where people exchanged ideas and the site of an intellectual revolution Survivors of plague could demand higher wages Merchants had few opportunities to expand business so they pursued art

The Renaissance Merchants and the Medici family (#4 part b) A wealthy merchant developed in each Italian city-state Merchants dominated politics Merchants did not inherit social rank- used their wits to survive This lead to the rise of importance of individual merit The (#6.1) Medici banking (6.2) family came to dominate Florence Had branch offices all throughout Italy and Europe Cosimo de Medici was the wealthiest European of his time Grandson Lorenzo de Medici became great patron of the arts (#5) Patron: someone who financially supports an artist or the arts Made their money using (#7) usury, which is lending someone money with interest.

Cosimo de Medici & Lorenzo de Medici

What did art focus on during the Middle Ages? The Renaissance Classical heritage of Greece and Rome (#4 part c) Renaissance artists looked down on the art and literature of the Middle Ages What did art focus on during the Middle Ages? Instead they wanted to revive the learning of the Greeks and Romans Ruins of Rome were nearby Many Greek manuscripts made their way to Rome via Christian scholars

The Renaissance Classical and Worldly Views As scholars studied manuscripts, they became more influenced by classical ideas. This lead to: (#8) Humanism: an intellectual movement during the Renaissance that focused more on human potential and achievements (#9) Popularized the study of history, literature, and philosophy (all are known as humanities) Worldly pleasure: Humanists suggested that a person could enjoy life without offending God Ex. Wealthy could enjoy material luxuries, good music, and fine foods

The Renaissance The Renaissance Man and Woman (#10) Renaissance Man: One strove to be a master in every area of study Expected to be charming, witty, and well educated in the classics (10.a) Also should be a skilled rider, wrestler, and swordsman   Renaissance Woman: Upper-class women should know the classics and be charming Not expected to seek fame Inspire art but not create it Little influence in politics

Italian v. Northern Renaissance (#11) Northern Europe Renaissance Emphasis on daily life -- the lives of peasants More religious tone, wanted reforms (change) to eliminate abuses in the Church. Led by Christian Humanists. Held onto Middle Age art Italian Renaissance Focused more on the wealthy class (aristocracy) individuals were becoming very wealthy, and thus gaining political influence.
