History 3043 - Renaissance Europe

Institution:

Washington University in St Louis

Subject:

Description:

The Renaissance was a time of tremendous cultural change, global expansion, and political and religious conflict that gave birth to the modern world. Yet, these dynamic developments were produced by an anxious society, where limited technological capabilities and an increasingly rigid system of social and gender divisions discouraged innovation and encouraged repressive measures. This course seeks to answer the question of how these contradictory impulses shaped the European Renaissance.
