• In our time, thanks to the talent and industry of those from the Rhine, books have emerged in lavish numbers. A book that once would've belonged only to the rich -- nay, to a king -- can now be seen under a modest roof. ... There is nothing nowadays that our children ... fail to know.

-Sebastian Brant, 1500

Northern Renaissance

Christian Humanism

Shakespeare

Northern Renaissance and Italian Renaissance

• Ideas of Renaissance (humanism, secularism) moved from Italian Peninsula to N Europe for two reasons– 1. Hundred Years War ended – societies more stable and

populations grew as people focused on themselves/progress– 2. Printing Press invented by Johann Gutenberg in 1440 –

easier to spread ideas to universities in N Europe

• Critical of Church, wanted reforms to society• Thomas More – “Utopia” an ideal place with no greed,

corruption, war, need for $$$, human nature?• 1564-1616, almost 2,000 new words, led to

standardization of English language• Did he write his works? – never in S Europe, yet wrote

about ideas there; used 5 times as many words as the avg human vocabulary; not formally educated

• Common – new ways of thinking, focus on lit and the arts

• Different – NR held on to religious ideals more, art more focused on realistic lives of people

Thomas More - Utopia

Human nature?

• In a land like that, the evil take advantage!

William Shakespeare

• Hamlet• Romeo & Juliet• The Merchant of Venice• Othello• A Midsummer Night’s

Dream• Macbeth• King Lear• Julius Caesar
