Mention any six writes and their contribution to the emergence of renaissance |
Answer» \tNiccolo Machiavelli\xa0wrote about human nature in the fifteenth chapter of his book,\xa0The Prince\xa0(1513).\xa0Machiavelli believed that ‘all men are bad and ever ready to display their vicious nature partly because of the fact that human desires are insatiable’. The most powerful motive Machiavelli saw as the incentive for every human action is self-interest.\tLuther argued that a person did not need priests to establish contact with God. In 1517 he wrote the ‘Ninety-Five Theses’,\xa0challenging the authority of the church.\tHowever, Luther did not support radicalism.\xa0The Catholic Church itself did not escape the impact of these ideas, and began to reform itself from within.\tWilliam Tyndale\xa0(1494-1536), an English Lutheran who translated the Bible into English in 1506, defended Protestantism. He said that clergy had forged the process, order and meaning of the ancient texts particularly because it was in Greek and Latin, inaccessible to the common man.<br>?? | |
