THE RENAISSANCE AND THE AGE OF DISCOVERY (30:00) Renaissance humanists made man "the measure of all things." The contributions of Machiavelli, Federigo da Montefeltro, Jan van Eyck, Botticelli, Michaelangelo, Columbus, and Magellan are examined in an era possessed by a passion for knowledge. THE RENAISSANCE AND THE NEW WORLD (30:00) The discovery of America challenged Europe's ideas and institutions as explorers, artists and thinkers surpassed previous limits. Weber explains Leonardo da Vinci's breakthroughs in art and anatomy, the impact of Magellan's journey around the world, and the debt the Renaissance owed to ancient humanistic traditions. |
