New Ideas and Art Wealthy leaders in Italian city-states supported talented artists and writers, and Renaissance art and ideas spread from Italy to northern Europe. The Reformation Begins Martin Luther and other reformers, such as John Calvin, broke from the Catholic Church and began a new Christian movement that came to be called Protestantism. Catholics and Protestants While the Catholic Church attempted to carry out reforms, Catholics and Protestants fought bloody religious wars across Europe.

It is a way of reading for deep understanding, not just memorizing or studying to pass a test. Read the following paragraph from Section 2. Renaissance painters also used new techniques. The most important was perspective, a method that makes a drawing or painting look three-dimensional. Artists had tried to use perspective before, but Renaissance artists per- fected it. Using perspective, objects in a scene appear to be at different distances from the viewer. The result is a more realistic image. —from page 623 How can you analyze this passage? Here are some suggestions: 1. Look at the drawing on page 626. Is the drawing realistic as described by the paragraph? 2. Look at another painting or drawing in this book. Compare the perspective to the drawing on page 626. Which is more realistic? Why? When reading, break 3.

Chiaroscuro softened edges by using light and shadows instead of stiff outlines to separate objects. In Italian, chiaro means “clear or light,” and oscuro means “dark.” Chiaro- scuro created more drama and emo- tion in a painting. —from page 623 Analyze the above paragraph by doing the following: 1. Look at the painting of Mona Lisa from page 622. Do you see the use of chiaroscuro? If so, in what way does it create drama or emotion? 2. Choose another painting in this or a dif- ferent text. Look at it carefully to see if the technique of chiaroscuro was used. Describe to a partner the light and dark The Mona Lisa areas that you see. 3. Try your hand at drawing an object or scene using the tech- nique of chiaroscuro. As you read this chapter, choose at least one section to study and ana- lyze for deeper meaning.

Lynch Elementary and Grammar Education in Late Medieval France Lyon, 1285-1530 Elementary and Grammar Education in Late Medieval France Knowledge Communities This series focuses on innovative scholarship in the areas of intellectual history and the history of ideas, particularly as they relate to the communication of knowledge within and among diverse scholarly, literary, religious, and social communities across Western Europe. Interdisciplinary in nature, the series especially encourages new methodological outlooks that draw on the disciplines of philosophy, theology, musicology, anthropology, paleography, and codicology. Knowledge Communities addresses the myriad ways in which knowledge was expressed and inculcated, not only focusing upon scholarly texts from the period but also emphasizing the importance of emotions, ritual, performance, images, and gestures as modalities that communicate and acculturate ideas. The series publishes cutting-edge work that explores the nexus between ideas, communities and individuals in medieval and early modern Europe.

Spring Meadows Campus - All School Photo CLASSIC, ADJ. TIMELESS, ETERNAL, CHARACTERIZED BY FORM, STRUCTURE, DISCIPLINE, BEAUTY. In a world of gimmicks, experiments, fads, and “innovations” that don’t work, a classical education is based on methods that are time-tested and true. Your child only goes through school once. A classical education is what every child deserves. What is a classical education? A liberal arts education that emphasizes the study of languages, literature, logic, mathematics, and science; an education that emphasizes understanding the past in order to be prepared for the future. Why study Latin? Why study the Greeks, Romans, and Medievals? Because they provide the necessary foundation for understanding the modern world. If you don’t know where you’ve come from, you don’t know where you’re going! A classical education teaches students to think, to be lifelong learners. Anything less is mere job training. In a world of constant change, job training is not enough. A classical education used to be the only education. It still is. “A school should be an Alma Mater, knowing her children one by one.

  • Vatican's New Art Director MUSEUMS by FRANCIS X. ROCCA Rome
    Greater New York Page 1 of 2 Vatican’s New Art Director MUSEUMS BY FRANCIS X. ROCCA Rome THE VATICAN MUSEUMS, one of the world’s pre-eminent art collections, announced Tuesday that Barbara Jatta, an Italian art historian and longtime Vatican official, will become its new director, making her the first woman to hold one of the most prestigious jobs in the art world. The appointment by Pope Francis, which is effective Jan. 1, will also make Ms. Jatta the most prominent female administrator at the Vatican. The pope has spoken about expanding the roles of women in the Catholic Church, but most high Vatican offices are reserved for cardinals and bishops, who must be men. (Margaret Archer, a British sociologist, was named president of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences, an advisory body to the pope, in 2014.) The Museums, which include priceless masterpieces including the Sistine Chapel frescoes by Michelangelo, regularly appear among the world’s top 10 museum complexes by attendance, with over six million visitors in 2015. The collections include 70,000 objects, dating back from antiquity through the 20th century. Ms. Jatta, 54, will oversee an insti- tution that is one of the Holy See’s major sources of funds, with about €300 million ($311 million) in gross revenues a year and at least €40 million in profits. The financial importance of the Vatican Museums has only grown in recent years, as the Holy See seeks to close a budget shortfall that amounted to €26 million in 2014. A native of Rome, Ms. Jatta has worked at the Vatican since 1996, until this year within the Vatican Library, where she oversaw the library’s collection of rare prints.

  • Miadrilms Internationa! HOWLETT, DERQ
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated witli a round black mark it is an indication that the füm inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.

Professor James O’Toole, Advisor In the 1960s American Jesuit secondary school administrators struggled to resolve a profound tension within their institutions. The religious order’s traditional educational aim dating back to the 1500s emphasized influence through contact with “important and public persons” in order that the Jesuits might in turn help direct cultures around the world to a more universal good. This historical foundation clashed sharply with what was emerging as the Jesuits’ new emphasis on a preferential option for the poor. This dissertation argues that the greater cultural and religious changes of the 1960s posed a fundamental challenge to Catholic elite education in the United States. The competing visions of the Jesuits produced a crisis of identity, causing some Jesuit high schools either to collapse or reinvent themselves in the debate over whether Jesuit schools were for richer or for poorer Americans.
