NOTES: |
THE WARS OF RELIGION (30:00)--For more than a century, the quarrels of Protestants and Catholics tore Europe apart. In France, the idea emerged that religion should be a private, not a state affair to avoid the strife of civil war. News of the day was conveyed in depictions of St. Bartholomew's Massacre and the Catholic League.; THE RISE OF THE TRADING CITIES (30:00)--The economic spine of Europe is delineated, illustrating how its cities prospered from a combination of geographical assets and religious tolerance. The dutch made great advances in domestic architecture and the accomplishments of Galileo, Newton, Copernicus, Kepler, Descartes, and Spinoza established the great age of scientific discoveries. |
