Things to learn about the Enlightenment, the French Revolution and Romanticism (Packet 4 of 12)

1. The Enlightenment

A European intellectual movement of the late 17th and 18th centuries emphasizing reason and individualism rather than tradition. It was heavily influenced by 17th-century philosophers such as Rene Descartes, John Locke, and Isaac Newton, and its prominent exponents include Immanuel Kant, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Voltaire, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and Adam Smith. Thinkers in Britain, in France and throughout Europe questioned traditional authority and embraced the notion that humanity could be improved through rational change. It produced numerous books, essays, inventions, scientific discoveries, laws, wars and revolutions. The American and French Revolutions were directly inspired by its ideals. It ultimately gave way to 19th-century Romanticism.

2. scientific revolution

Historical changes in thought and belief, as well as changes in social and institutional organization, that unfolded in Europe between roughly 1550-1700; beginning with Nicholas Copernicus (1473-1543), who asserted a heliocentric (sun-centered) cosmos, and ending with Isaac Newton (1642-1727), who proposed universal laws and a Mechanical Universe.

3. Nicholas Copernicus

Astronomer instrumental in establishing the concept of a heliocentric solar system, in which the sun, rather than the earth, is the center of the solar system. Born on February 19, 1473 in Torun, Poland. Circa 1508, he developed his own celestial model of a heliocentric planetary system. Around 1514, he shared his findings in the Commentariolus. His second book on the topic, De revolutionibus orbium coelestium, was banned by the Roman Catholic Church decades after his May 24, 1543 death in Frombork.


4. Seven Axioms of Copernicus

1) Planets don't revolve around one fixed point.

2) The earth is not at the center of the universe.

3) The sun is at the center of the universe, and all celestial bodies rotate aro

Things to learn about the Renaissance(Packet 2 of 12)

1. Dante Alighieri

A major Italian poet of the Late Middle Ages, who lived from 1265-1321. His Divine Comedy, originally called Comedìa (modern Italian: Commedia) and later christened Divina by Boccaccio, is widely considered the greatest literary work composed in the Italian language and a masterpiece of world literature. In the late Middle Ages, the overwhelming majority of poetry was written in Latin, and therefore accessible only to affluent and educated audiences. In De vulgari eloquentia (On Eloquence in the Vernacular), however, Dante defended use of the vernacular in literature. He himself would even write in the Tuscan dialect for works such as The New Life (1295) and the aforementioned Divine Comedy; this choice, although highly unorthodox, set a hugely important precedent that later Italian writers such as Petrarch and Boccaccio would follow. As a result, Dante played an instrumental role in establishing the national language of Italy. Dante has been called "the Father of the Italian language" and one of the greatest poets of world literature.

2. The Divine Comedy

An epic poem by Dante Alighieri, begun c. 1308 and completed 1320, a year before his death in 1321. It is widely considered the preeminent work of Italian literature[ and is seen as one of the greatest works of world literature. The poem's imaginative vision of the afterlife is representative of the medieval world-view as it had developed in the Western Church by the 14th century. It helped establish the Tuscan language, in which it is written, as the standardized Italian language. It is divided into three parts: Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso. The work was originally simply titled Comedìa and the word Divina was added by Giovanni Boccaccio. The first printed edition to add the word divina to the title was that of the Venetian humanist Lodovico Dolce, published in 1555 by Gabriele Giolito de' Ferrari.

3. Inferno

The first part of D

Things to learn about the Tudor England and Shakespeare (Packet 1 of 12)

1. Wars of the Roses

A series of wars for control of the throne of England. They were fought between supporters of two rival branches of the royal House of Plantagenet, those of Lancaster and York. They were fought in several sporadic episodes between 1455 and 1487, although there was related fighting before and after this period. The conflict resulted from social and financial troubles that followed the Hundred Years' War, combined with the mental infirmity and weak rule of Henry VI which revived interest in Richard, Duke of York's claim to the throne. The final victory went to a claimant of the Lancastrian party, Henry Tudor, Earl of Richmond, who defeated the last Yorkist king Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth Field.

2. House of Lancaster

A branch of the Plantagenet House of England, represented by a red rose. The descendants of the third son of Edward III, John of Gaunt. John inherited the title when he married into money and the Lancaster title. When John’s young nephew Richard (son of Edward, the Black Prince) became king of England as Richard II, he helped guide his nephew. Later, however, John’s son Henry usurped the throne from his cousin, becoming Henry IV and officially starting the branch of the Plantagenet house.

3. House of York

A branch of the Plantagenet House of England represented by a white rose. The descendants of the second and fourth sons of Edward III, they kicked off the Wars of the Roses when Edward IV took control of England from Henry VI in 1455, shortly after the end of the Hundred Years’ War. Edward IV was a strong leader, but after he death, his brother Richard seized power from his young son, becoming Richard III. Richard stayed in power for only two years before losing power to Henry Tudor, who unified the houses by marrying Edward’s daughter Elizabeth.

4. Henry Bolingbroke

The son of John of Gaunt, he was the first cousin of King Richard II.
