Description
This course deals with two distinct upheavals that took place in Western Europe between 1300 and 1700. The first investigates the Renaissance - its classical bases; its characteristics and developments in the various arts; and the major figures involved in those areas. The second concentrates on the Reformation - its precedents in Christian church history, theological ideas proposed by various Protestant reformers, and the Roman Catholic reaction to the upheaval. Long-term results of both movements will be covered. 3/0/0
