The Medici Family were one of the most wealthy and influential families in Renaissance Florence. They accumulated their fortune through banking and used their wealth to gain political power, having two family members elected as Pope. The Medici then used their political influence to enact laws favoring their economic interests and make Florence a center of art and culture through major patronage of Renaissance artists.
Florence underwent rapid changes in the late 1300s. The city was devastated by the Black Death in the late 1300s, which killed over 50,000 residents. However, just 50 years later, Florence had rebounded and was growing in both population and culture, becoming renowned for its beauty, art, and culture. The quick transformation of Florence from a city afflicted by plague to a cultural center can be attributed to the rise of influential merchant families like the Medicis, who helped finance new art and architecture that boosted the city's renown.
The Catholic Church played a central role in medieval European society. It provided religious services and sacraments, operated monasteries and universities, and was closely tied to political systems as many church officials also held government roles. The Pope headed the church hierarchy and claimed authority over all kings and emperors. This gave the Church tremendous power in the Middle Ages as it was the most powerful institution. However, as monarchies grew stronger they began contesting the Church's authority, leading to tensions over who had supremacy in religious and political matters - the Pope or secular rulers. This caused conflicts between the Catholic Church and monarchies throughout the medieval period.

Men's fashion in 14th century Europe began experimenting with tailored clothing that fit the body through curved seams and use of lacing/buttons.

The Industrial Revolution transformed economies and societies from the 18th to 19th century. New technologies like the steam engine and innovations in textile production like the spinning jenny allowed manufacturing to move from small workshops to mass production in factories. This led people to migrate from rural areas to cities to work in the new industrial jobs, causing rapid urbanization and crowding in urban areas. Working conditions in factories were often difficult, with long hours, unsafe machinery, and low wages, including for children. The new industrialized system focused on mass production and division of labor.
This document provides an overview of the Enlightenment period in Europe and its impact on the American and French Revolutions. Key philosophers like Locke and Rousseau influenced ideas of individual rights and popular sovereignty. The American Revolution was sparked by oppressive British taxes and legislation, leading to the Declaration of Independence in 1776. The French Revolution overthrew the French monarchy and aristocracy in response to inequality, establishing a republic but also periods of instability and violence under Robespierre. Napoleon later seized power in France and crowned himself Emperor, seeking to stabilize the country.
European imperialism in the late 19th century was driven by economic, political, and ideological motives. Nations sought resources, markets, and believed in their racial superiority. While imperialism provided some benefits like infrastructure, it ultimately exploited and destroyed local cultures. The negative consequences included racism, economic exploitation, religious conversion that erased traditions, and spread of disease. Decolonization in Asia and Africa occurred in the mid-20th century as nationalism grew and maintaining colonies became too costly. Independence movements regained control for most former colonies.
The document provides information about the Enlightenment period. It defines key terms like Enlightenment, Age of Reason, and salon. It explains that the Enlightenment grew out of the Renaissance, Reformation, and Scientific Revolution by further challenging accepted beliefs. Enlightenment philosophers wanted to apply reason to problems in government and society. Salons in France allowed philosophers to exchange and debate ideas, helping spread Enlightenment thinking. Many American founding fathers were influenced by Enlightenment ideas.
The Protestant Reformation began in 1517 and led to the end of religious unity in Western Europe. Martin Luther posted his 95 theses criticizing the Catholic Church in 1517, which sparked the Reformation in Germany. Henry VIII established the Church of England to gain an annulment of his marriage. The Reformation spread to other parts of Europe but had less success in Spain and Italy. The Catholic Church responded with the Counter-Reformation including the Council of Trent and Jesuits. The Reformation resulted in over a century of religious wars and fragmented Christianity in the West.
The Scientific Revolution emerged between 1500-1700 as a new way of gaining knowledge about the world through reason and observation, challenging prior reliance on religious teachings and classical thinkers like Aristotle. Key developments included Copernicus proposing the sun-centered model of the solar system, Galileo using experimentation to disprove Aristotle's theories of motion, and Newton discovering the law of gravity. The Scientific Revolution established the scientific method as the standard approach in science.
The Protestant Reformation began in 1517 when Martin Luther posted his 95 Theses criticizing corrupt practices in the Catholic Church. Luther argued that salvation came through faith alone, not good works or sacraments as the Church taught. When Luther refused to recant his writings, he was excommunicated and started the Lutheran Protestant movement. Other reformers like Calvin and Henry VIII also broke from Catholicism, founding new denominations with beliefs like predestination and establishing national churches. The printing press helped spread new Protestant ideas across Europe and challenged the Catholic Church's authority.

The colonies developed with different motivations and economies, such as the Puritan religious motivations in New England and the growth of the tobacco economy in the Chesapeake region and Jamestown. Religious diversity existed among the colonies.
The document provides an overview of the Scientific Revolution and the Enlightenment period in Europe. It discusses key figures like Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler, Newton, Bacon, and Descartes who challenged the Aristotelian worldview and established the foundations of modern science through empirical methods and mathematics. It also examines Enlightenment philosophers like Voltaire, Montesquieu, Rousseau, and Kant who applied scientific rationalism to critique the old regime and advocate for political and social reform based on natural rights and progress. Salons and publications like the Encyclopedia helped spread Enlightenment ideas, though they also faced censorship from the old order.
The Roman Catholic Church played a central role in medieval Europe. It was the center of religious and social life, owned a third of the land, and collected tithes from peasants. The Church taught that the seven sacraments were essential for salvation. Pilgrimages to sites like Jerusalem and Rome were also important for Christians to undertake. Monasteries were vital religious communities that housed monks following the Benedictine rule of poverty, chastity, and obedience and performed important social functions like farming, providing refuge, and copying manuscripts.
The passage defines the Dark Ages as the period from 400 AD to 1400 AD in Europe, characterized as a time of "intellectual depression" following the fall of the Roman Empire and prior to the "revival of learning." It notes this period nearly corresponds to the Middle Ages. The key points are:
1) The Dark Ages refers to the period from 400-1400 AD in Europe.
2) This era is described as one of "intellectual depression" following the barbarian invasions and prior to the Renaissance.
3) The Dark Ages spanned almost 900 years, encompassing most of the Middle Ages period.
The document discusses the colonial patterns of Spain, France, and England in North America. Spain focused on conquering land and peoples for wealth and converting natives to Catholicism through missions. France claimed territory for the fur trade and worked more cooperatively with native tribes. England's colonies were more decentralized and varied due to different motivations among settlers, leading to regional subcultures like the Chesapeake and New England. Overall, European diseases, technology, and religious justifications allowed them to establish control over North America at the expense of native populations.
The document outlines the feudal system that developed in Europe following the fall of the Western Roman Empire. It describes the hierarchical structure with the king at the top granting land to nobles in exchange for loyalty and military service. Nobles then granted land to knights and protected peasant farmers and serfs who worked the land in exchange for labor and a portion of production. This system addressed the need for local defense and economic stability after the collapse of centralized government authority.

It discusses their locations, political structures, religions, accomplishments, and eventual declines. The Maya settled in what is now the Yucatan peninsula and had numerous independent city-states. They developed advanced calendars, mathematics, and hieroglyphic writing. Around 900 AD, many Maya abandoned their cities due to a severe drought. The Aztecs built the great city of Tenochtitlan in present-day Mexico and created an empire through conquest and tribute. They practiced human sacrifice on a large scale before being conquered by the Spanish in 1521. The Inca ruled a large empire from Cuzco
The document provides an overview of the Age of Exploration from the 1400s to 1700s. It describes the main motivations for European exploration as gold/money, glory, and spreading Christianity. Technological advances like the caravel ship and new navigation methods enabled long voyages. Portugal was an early leader in exploration under Prince Henry and explorers like Da Gama. Spain also sponsored explorers like Columbus and Magellan. Major European powers established global colonies, increasing their wealth and power. The Age of Exploration thus significantly expanded European political and economic dominance worldwide.
The document discusses the Black Death plague that devastated Europe from 1347 to 1351. It describes the three forms of plague (bubonic, septicemic, and pneumonic), their symptoms, and high mortality rates. The plague spread through flea-borne transmission from infected rats to humans. It made its way from Central Asia to Europe along trade routes, killing an estimated 25-50% of the population. The social, economic, and religious impacts of the plague were profound and long-lasting.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

4. Factors that Contributed to the
Beginning of the Renaissance
• Trade and commerce increased during and after Crusades
• Cities grew larger and wealthier due to trade
• Newly wealthy merchants and bankers supported the
growth of the arts and learning
• The Renaissance was an age of recovery from the disasters
of the 14th century, such as the plague, political instability,
and a decline of Church power
• Recovery went hand-in-hand with a rebirth of interest in
ancient culture (e.g., ancient Greece and Rome)
• A new view of human beings emerged as people in the
Italian Renaissance began to emphasize individual ability
5. Do Now
What was one of the factors that contributed
to the beginning of the Renaissance?
6. Lesson 2 Objectives
Discuss what the Renaissance was and where
it began.
Sequence events related to the
rise of Italian city-states and their political
development, including
Machiavelli’s theory of governing as
described in The Prince.
7. The Renaissance was a cultural movement
and a time of renewal (Europe was
recovering from the Dark Ages and the
Black Death/Bubonic Plague)
Renaissance means “rebirth” of classical
knowledge and “birth” of the modern
world (new intellectual and artistic ideas
that developed during the Renaissance
marked the beginning of the modern
world)
What was the Renaissance?
8. Where did the Renaissance begin?
•Italy
•Italian Cities
•Urban Societies
•Major Trading Centers
•Secular Movement
•People lost their faith in the church and began to
put more focus on human beings and material
possessions
9. When did the Renaissance Take
Place?
Roughly the 14th to the 17th century
10. How did the Crusades contribute
to the Renaissance?
Crusades (1095 – 1291) = Religiously
sanctioned military campaigns waged by
Roman Catholics against Muslims who had
occupied the near east since the Rashidun
Caliphate (founded after Muhammad’s
death in 632, the Rashidun Caliphate was
one of the largest empires of the time
period)
Increased demand for Middle Eastern
products
Stimulated production of goods to trade in
Middle Eastern markets
Encouraged the use of credit and banking
11. The Black Death: Bubonic Plague
• 1330s - An outbreak of deadly bubonic plague occurred in China
• Mainly affects rodents, but fleas can transmit the disease to people
• Once people are infected, they infect others very rapidly
• Plague causes fever, painful swelling of the lymph glands, and spots
on the skin that are red at first and then turn black = Black Death
• Since China was one of the busiest of the world's trading nations, it
was only a matter of time before the outbreak of plague in China
spread to western Asia and Europe
• In 1347, Italian merchant ships returned from a trip to the Black Sea,
one of the key links in trade with China. When the ships docked in
Sicily (Italy), many of those on board were already dying of plague.
• Within days the disease spread to the city and the surrounding
countryside
12. Bubonic Plague Continued
• After five years 25 million people were dead--one-third of
Europe's population.
• Even when the worst was over, smaller outbreaks
continued, not just for years, but for centuries. The
survivors lived in constant fear of the plague's return, and
the disease did not disappear until the 1600s.
• The disease took its toll on the church as well. People
throughout Christendom had prayed devoutly for
deliverance from the plague. Why hadn't those prayers
been answered? A new period of political turmoil and
philosophical questioning lay ahead.
13.
14. Political Ideas of the Renaissance
Niccolò Machiavelli (1469-1527)
An Italian Philosopher and Writer based in Florence
during the Renaissance
The Prince (Published in 1532)
Machiavelli believed:
“One can make this generalization about
men: they are ungrateful, fickle, liars,
and deceivers, they shun danger and are
greedy for profit”
Machiavelli observed city-state rulers of
his day and produced guidelines for how
to gain and maintain power.
Absolute Rule
He felt that a ruler should be willing to
do anything to maintain control without
worrying about conscience.
15. • Better for a ruler to be feared than to be loved
• Ruler should be quick and decisive in decision making
• Ruler keeps power by any means necessary
• The end justifies the means
• Be good when possible, and evil when necessary
Today, the term “Machiavellian”
refers to the use of deceit in
politics
17. Guided Practice
Excerpts from Machiavelli’s, The Prince
Chapter XVII
Whether it is better to be loved than feared
Chapter XVIII
How rulers should keep their promises
18. Do Now: Lesson 3A
How did Italian city-states influence the
Renaissance?

states and their political development and
2) identify the economic foundations of the Italian
Renaissance (e.g., explain the importance of the
growth of towns, the rise of a money economy,
and the development of independent city-states
to the birth and spread of Renaissance ideas)
20. Major Italian
City-States
Milan Venice
Florence
Milan
One of the richest cities, it controls
trade through the Alps.
Venice
Located on the Adriatic Sea, it is a
major trade route between Asia &
Europe.
Florence
Controlled by the Medici Family, who
became great patrons of the arts.
Genoa
Genoa
Had Access to Trade Routes
All of these cities:
• Had access to trade routes connecting
Europe with Middle Eastern markets
• Served as trading centers for the
distribution of goods to northern Europe
Rome
Headquarters of the Catholic
Church

21.
22. Italian City-States
Because Italy failed to become united during the Dark
Ages, many independent city-states emerged in Italy.
Each city-state was controlled by a powerful family and
dominated by a wealthy merchant class. Their interest
in art and emphasis on personal achievement helped to
shape the Italian Renaissance.
Example: The Medici family of Florence ranked among

29. Do Now
Why do you think art was so influential
during the Renaissance?
30. Lesson 4 Objectives
SWBAT cite artistic, literary, and
philosophical creativity, as contrasted with
the medieval period, by:
1. Learning about the elements of classical,
medieval, and Renaissance art
2. Identifying the period – classical,
medieval, or Renaissance – in which six
artworks were created
31. The Renaissance produced new ideas that
were reflected in the arts, philosophy, and

trade, sponsored works which glorified
city-states in northern Italy. Education
became increasingly secular.
32. Classical art showed the importance of people
and leaders, as well as gods and goddesses
Medieval art and literature focused on the
Church and salvation
Renaissance art and literature focused on the
importance of people and nature, along with
religion

40. Lesson 5 Objectives
SWBAT:
1. Cite artistic, literary, and philosophical
creativity, as contrasted with the medieval
period, including Leonardo da Vinci,
Michelangelo, and Petrarch
2. Compare the Italian and the Northern
Renaissance, and citing the contributions
of writers
41. Renaissance artists embraced some of the ideals
of ancient Greece and Rome in their art.
The purpose of art would no longer be to glorify
God, as it had been in Medieval Europe. Artists
wanted their subjects to be realistic and focused
on humanity and emotion.
New Techniques also emerged.
42. Art and Patronage
Italians patrons (financial supporters) were willing to spend a
lot of money on art
– Art communicated social, political, and spiritual values
and therefore, the consumption of art was used as a
form of competition for social & political status.

65. Northern Renaissance
The Renaissance in northern Europe (outside Italy)
• There was increased cultural exchange between
European countries
• Printed materials helped to spread ideas
• Centralization of political power made the
northern Renaissance distinct from the Italian
Renaissance (e.g., nation-states instead of Italian
city-states)
66. • Growing wealth in Northern Europe supported Renaissance ideas.
• Northern Renaissance thinkers merged humanist ideas with
Christianity.
• The movable type printing press and the production and sale of
books (Gutenberg Bible) helped disseminate ideas and allowed more
people to become educated.
67. •Cultural and educational reform
•The study of classical culture (ancient Greece and Rome),
in contrast with the study of things related to the church
and religion
• Celebrated the individual
•Was supported by wealthy patrons (financial supporters)
68. Literature flourished during the Renaissance and
spread Renaissance ideas, which can be greatly
attributed to Johannes Gutenberg.
In 1455 Gutenberg printed the first book produced
by using moveable type, The Bible, and started a
printing revolution that would transform Europe.

71. Erasmus
(1466-1536)
Dutch humanist
Pushed for a Vernacular form of the
Bible
“I disagree very much with those who
are unwilling that Holy Scripture,

read by the uneducated . . . As if the
strength of the Christian religion
consisted in the ignorance of it”

ignorant behavior of people, including
the clergy. He felt people would be
open minded and be kind to others.
