    This is a brief tutorial video designed to show AP Euro students how to construct an argument comparing the Italian Renaissance and the Northern Renaissance. The Italian Renaissance is typically characterized as secular and individualistic, while the Northern Renaissance is seen as more Christian and socially-oriented. As all historical claims must be supported by evidence, I use Machiavelli's The Prince and Thomas More's Utopia to contrast the two Renaissance movements.
    And don't forget to note what they have in common! Although the Italian Humanists and Northern Humanists differed in their approach and philosophy, they were all inspired by humanistic (classical) studies. With this approach, you should be set up to score at least half the points on your AP Euro LEQ (Long Essay Question) if not more!

    I actually really enjoyed this and it made my writing a whole lot easier and less painful and I also learned more than I would have just diving in head first.

    Hello Tom. Thanks for the video, I really could have a grasp in this topic, even though I had readed The Prince, it is a topic a had overlooked. Leaving the video aside. I had told you that history is my hobbie, because of that I choose my career International Relations. but sadly I dislike writing essays, I really dislike them that I have the bad habit of procrastinate them. I have to do them anyways, but I reluctantly have to do them. What do you think? PD: I'm looking forward to read your would to be writing about Machiavelli that you mentioned. Saludos from a informal student of yours in the Banana Republic of Colombia. PD: I will keep you recomending stuff about us, this time a article written by Karl Marx in 1859 called Bolivar y Ponte.

    Hey Tom, speaking of comparisons. Can you make a comparison between history courses in the US and Europe... As someone from Europe, who isn't studying history in university/college... I don't know what you study in AP euro/world... what does AP stands for?!

    • @tomrichey
      @tomrichey  Před 7 lety +2

      +Divine Evil I don't know much about how courses are taught in Europe, but AP (Advanced Placement) courses are courses taught to high school students, who then take an exam for university credit. That's why these lectures are typically accessible to high school and university students since it's basically got the characteristics of a university course.

      I would suggest starting by looking at university reading lists. The Art History book reading lists for universities , such as Oxford can be found on the Internet. Oxford also gives full details of its Undergraduate 2 year diploma syllabus online.

    Wasn’t Machiavelli inspired by Ceasar Borgia who was the descendant of Pope Alexander VI and wasn’t his figure used as the figure of the Catholic Christ?

    • @WelshRabbit
      @WelshRabbit Před 6 lety +1

      Gilgal, Yes, Cesare Borgia (later Duke of Valentinois) was not just a descendant but illegitimate son of Rodrigo Borgia, Pope Alexander VI.

    @rileyhard4134 Před 7 lety

    As a student of yours I have reread The Praise Of Folly. Now since I've read it again I realize even though it is a satire it still hates on the catholic church. Would this be considered secular? #tricheythegoat Your AP Euro students should get a project like the Machiavellian Sermon on the Mt.

    Erasmus laid the egg that Luther hatched!

    • @WelshRabbit
      @WelshRabbit Před 6 lety +1

      Yes, and don't forget Thomas Muntzer, who was influenced by Luther until Luther publicly disavowed and condemned Muntzer's radical ideas, including the abolition of private property. Muntzer was a proto-Marxist-Leninist leading his own unsuccessful German-Reformation-Era version of a Wat Tyler & John Ball Peasants' Revolt. He and his revolting peasants were captured in 1525 and many, like himself, were tortured and put to death. All this was happening while in England, Henry VIII was still basking in the glory of having been named by Pope Leo X (G. de' Medici -- "Since God has given us the papacy, let us enjoy it.") "Defender of the Faith" for Henry's work (probably ghost-written by Thomas More) attacking Luther and defending the seven sacraments. Henry was beginning to think about how to dump Q. Catherine of Aragon without pissing off Pope Leo X or Leo's cousin (also a G. de' Medici and successor, Pope Clement VII -- and especially, Catherine's nephew, who just happened to be Emperor Charles V, fresh from a huge victory at the Battle of Pavia, utterly crushing the French army and capturing Francis, I king of France. In short, 1525 was truly BIG YEAR, only to be outdone by the 1527 Sack of Rome, which a lot of scholars say marks the end of the Italian Renaissance. At least the English Renaissance managed to surge on with the likes of Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe, Edmund Spencer, Ben Johnson, Holbein, Francis Bacon, Thomas Tallis, & William Byrd, to name just a few, for another 75 yrs or so, at least until the death of Elizabeth I -- and perhaps a few more years until the publication of the King James Bible in 1611.

    • @WelshRabbit
      @WelshRabbit Před 6 lety +1

      Damien, Prof. Garrett Mattingly of Columbia U. wrote that he thought it was a satire, but he makes a pretty weak case, and that's definitely a minority opinion. Machiavelli wrote it in hope that he could get back in good graces with the newly restored Florentine government of Lorenzo (grandson of the Magnificent) de' Medici and win his old job back (or at least some job) in the restored Medici government of Florence. Remember, the book was supposed to be a "how-to-do-it" book on getting political power -- and keeping it, not how to win friends and influence people. You don't do that writing a satire of those in power and still have any hopes that the administration will tap you for a job. Alas, for Machiavelli, there is no evidence that Lorenzo de' Medici ever bothered to look at it -- or even acknowledged receiving it. Having been a supporter of Piero Soderini who was chiefly responsible for driving out the Medici, and the execution of Savonarola (that hell-fire-and-damnation "Bonfire of the Vanities" preacher and Medici favorite friar and chief confessor), and since Machiavelli had been in charge of the Florentine militia under Soderini's government, upon the overthrow of Soderini and restoration to power of the Medici, Machiavelli was regarded as permanently damaged goods & a probable, if unproven, traitor to the Medici government. Machiavelli was under a dark cloud of suspicion. Machiavelli didn't know it but there was no chance in Hell that the Medici would ever let Machiavelli work in their government of Florence -- even as a deputy junior assistant dog catcher. Machiavelli was lucky to have escaped with his life -- and only four times on the strappado (a low tech, but very painful torture rig designed to dislocate shoulders or break a few bones in an effort to encourage confessions of guilt).

      In Italian it sounds really solemn, it is written in a really archaic way, and there are a lot of words who didn't evolve yet from Latin

    alright so the renaissance lasted from the late 15th century all the way through the 16th century because the late 1500s was when the European colonization era France Italy Spain Portugal England Germany all colonized Africa Asia north and south America.
