Mankind and the world

- Renaissance: Rebirth

Humanists

- The scholars were called Humanists.

- They studied art, classical philosophy and literature with a lot of attention to human beings.

Mistakes in the Bible 

Note!:  humanists were christians, but thought that people should not just do whatever the Church told tehm to do. They had to think for themselves. 

- Erasmus discovered that the Latin Bible was full of mistakes. So he made a new translation.

Spread

- The Renaissance started in Italian Cities such as Florence, Milan and Rome, but also became populair outside of Italy.
