Review: Medieval Europe
The Roman Catholic Church was the dominant force of Medieval Europe.
The Roman Catholic Church maintained power by threatening excommunication, which would deny the Sacraments (sacred rituals).
People who did not receive Sacraments believed they were going to Hell.
Review: Medieval EuropeIn Eastern Europe, the former Eastern Roman Empire became the Byzantine Empire.
Byzantine Christians were different from Roman Catholics. They did not believe in the authority of the Pope, they spoke Greek, and they allowed priests to marry.

Italian start
The Renaissance began in Italy for three reasons:1) Classical focus
2) Center of trade
3) Wealthy merchants
1) Classical FocusThe Renaissance focused on the Classical influences from Ancient Greece and Rome.
Italy was the center of the Ancient Roman culture, with architecture, literature and monuments throughout
Center of Trade
Italy is a Peninsula (surrounded by water on 3 sides) and therefore had access to much trade.
The Italian ‘boot’ kicks into the Mediterranean sea, connecting Italy to the Middle East and Silk Road
Remember: Water is a geographic factor that promotes trade
Patron Merchants
Due to its ideal location on trade routes, many merchants became very wealthy.
These merchants became patrons of the arts, donating large sums to create art pieces in painting, sculptures and architecture.
The Roman Catholic Church was another patron of the arts in Renaissance Italy
Patron- someone who provides support to a
cause or person
Florence and the MedicisFlorence is a symbol of the Renaissance. With a large population of poets, artists, scholars and scientists, Florence was an ideal Renaissance City
