2. Hoe ontstond de Renaissance?
3. Waarom moet ik dit weten?

One of the most brilliant men that ever lived was born in 1452, near the small village of Vinci, close to the Italian city of Florence. He is known to be a perfect example of a Homo Universalis, a person that is an expert in many different fields. This man was a sculptor, a painter, an architect, an anatomist, a poet, a writer, an engineer and much more. Even during his lifetime he was a legend, although many of his works remain a mystery. His name was Leonardo da Vinci

Let's start with the 

RENAISSANCE

Waarom Italië?

1. In Italië is allemaal 'oude kennis'; Romeinen (Rome).

2. Handelaren waren in in Italiaanse steden erg rijk.

Veel geld? -> Kunst!

(Schilderijen, beeldhouwwerken en gebouwen.)

Even terug in de tijd..

Middeleeuwen -> Renaissance

• Cultuur uit de oudheid is in!
• Kunst, Bouwwerken, Wetenschap, enz.
• 'Oude' kennis wordt nieuwe kennis!

Renaissance betekend letterlijk; Wedergeboorte.

Why do so many people love Italy today?

RENAISSANCE

RESULT: Roman is alllll the fashion again!

Opdracht!

• Bekijk de opdracht in Learnbeat!
• Al klaar?

The re-discovery of the Greek and Roman culture had great effects on the Italians:

• Memento mori (Gedenk te sterven), wordt carpe diem (Pluk de dag)

• Mensen gaan meer leven voor het leven nu, en niet voor het leven na de dood

• God en geloof blijven heel erg belangrijk, maar het vertrouwen in de kerk wordt minder

The Renaissance changed the world in many ways:

I: changing worldview

1. The Medieval motto "Memento Mori" (remember that you will die) becomes the more Roman motto: "Carpe Diem" (seize the day)
   
2. God and religion remain important, but confidence in the Church decreases.

3. many details
   
4. perspective (illusion of depth)

6. naked body, anatomy.

1.1  The Renaissance 

Conclusion

Why is L. da Vinci seen as the typical Renaissance Man, a Huomo Universalis?

Before the R.: people were not important, only God was important.

This changed: In the R. people became important.

Humans can do anything if they put their mind to it.

And L. da Vinci was the best example of this "human potential"

Scholars who studied the Classics and spread their knowledge were known as "HUMANISTS".
