* City-states* New economic elite*Oligarchies and dictatorships
List of Factors that led to the Renaissance
*Ruins of the Roman Empire a reminder of Roman glory
*Contact with Byzantine civilization through Crusades and trade
*Knowledge of Arab and African achievements in science and medicine
*An artistic awakening *The study of classical Greek and Roman
literature and life *Scholar’s search for new knowledge
WHY ITALY?• Roman Empire ruins reminded Italians of
ancient Roman glory• Crusades and trade—contact with the
Byzantine civilization, whose scholars had preserved Greek and Roman
learning.• Trade—allowed Italians to learn of Arab and African achievements in science and
medicine.These and other factors helped to encourage
curiosity and the search for new knowledge
among Italian thinkers.
Florence, Milan, Naples, Rome, and Venice had
grown rich through trade and
industry.
Florence, Italy
The city that is given the most credit for the birth of the Renaissance
Florence
• Center of banking and textiles• Bankers for the
papacy• Nominally a
republic, but controlled by an oligarchy of bankers and merchants
• A Florentine diplomat and historian• Wrote the essay, The Prince• He argued that a ruler should be concerned only with power and
political success.• Today some people refer to the ruthless behavior to get ahead as
“Machiavellian.”• Considered a humanist because he looked to the ancient Romans as models.• Lack of conventional morality in The Prince , however, sets him apart from
other humanists of the time.
