During the 1400- 1517, the conditions of the church changed. With the papal conflict with the German emperor Frederick II, followed by the Babylonian Captivity and the Great Schism it damaged the prestige of church leaders badly. The Renaissance was a period of rebirth and renewal. During the Renaissance, essential figures such as Martin Luther, Pope Leo X and Pope Nicholas, were accountable for the Protestant Reformation. According to(2000), “The four main Protestant traditions that emerged from the Reformation were the Lutheran (known in continental Europe as Evangelical), the Calvinist (Reformed), the Anabaptist, and the Anglican.
Jennifer Lopez Prof. Burnham World History 10/24/12 Primary Sources Title: The Spanish Inquisition Objective: This essay analyzes the formation and features of the Spanish Inquisition as an ideology of the fifteenth century. It also explains the motives of the emergence of the inquisitorial Spain.

His master work is divided into sections regarding the Inquisitorial origins, its rulers, its failures and triumphs, and moreover about its motives.

Between 1547 and 1558 England was almost torn apart by religious revolution. Assess the validity of this claim. (45 marks) A religious revolution is the complete change and reform of religious organisation. This is something that arguably occurred in England between 1547 and 1558, during which time there were two monarchs – Edward VI and Mary I, with opposing religious beliefs. During Tudor England, religious identity was extremely important, and therefore religious ‘revolution’ was obviously going to affect the people and the country significantly.
the changes in the mechanisms of ‘volkisch’ anti-semitism and how it developed throughout the preceding decades, with particular scholarly movements including the inception of scientific racism, the volkisch movement in correspondence with new imperialism and militant nationalism. The approach suggests that the holocaust was exclusively akin to Germany’s rising ‘volkisch’ culture and that the aggressive notions of supremacy produced in the late nineteenth century influenced their attitudes towards the other races within Germany at the time and subsequent to the century’s turn. This particular approach is therefore beneficial for understanding how the very concept of a civilised genocide was manifested and how anti-semitism transformed according to the circumstances of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and is therefore the synthesis of the intentionalist and functionalist schools as the German anti-semitism was developed in the long-term through cumulative radicalisation. It adds to our understanding of how ‘völkisch-antisemitisch’ developed from mere prejudice into genocide and how it was influential in the development of advancement of National Socialism, being spawned through nineteenth century scholarly ideologies and social movements including Social Darwinism as a product of emerging ‘scientific racism’, with this and the association with romantic nationalism being

The Enlightenment began in Europe, which stressed reason and natural laws that explain the events. The Great Awakening awoke colonist about the religious fervor after it had started to die down. Both The Enlightenment and Great Awakening were different but had similar consequences for America.

It was the 16th century, a time when change was on the horizon. For one thousand years, the Roman Catholic Church had been in charge of Europe and of the theology in Europe. Internal changes, such as the age of Discovery, the Scientific Revolution, and the advent of the printing press all brought about a revolutionary change to Christianity. It was during this time that one remarkable monk, Martin Luther, posted his ninety-five theses, a scathing indictment of the abuses of the Roman Catholic Church. He wanted to reform the church, but created a new denomination instead.
Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein (1818) and Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner (1981) are both a representation of their composer’s contextual anxieties. By developing a deeper understanding of the composer’s context, the (underlying messages in the text is met.) The comparison also shows that despite being separated by over a century, the interpretations of the authors on the paradigms of nature, science and humanity (meet on similar lines, creating a timeless effect). Frankenstein, composed during the 19th century, a period of revolt, the French Revolution being an iconic event heavily influenced the theme of ‘usurpation of power’ that (frolics in the novel).
