Today in western civ we came and in and voted on weather or not we wanted to have a test tomorrow We all voted to not have a test but Amon because he wanted to have a test. Then I was trying to persuade Mr. Schick into letting us do book work and answer questions for some points. He let us do a section in the book for 10 more points it was on page 477 and we answered question 1, 3, 4, 5. Some of the answers to the questions were

• Renaissance means rebirth
• Study of classical texts led to humanism
• Secular means worldly rather than spiritual and concerned with here and now
• Patrons of the arts by financially supporting arts
• Perspective which shows 3 detentions on a flat surface
• vernacular native language instead of latin
• Man: All educated people were expected to make art; should be charming, witty, and well educated
• Women: upper class women should know classics and be charming; not expected to seek fame;
• few women exercised power
• overseas trade spurred by the crusades had led to growth
• Even church leaders became more worldly, Renaissances merchants and wealthy families also were patrons of the art

Then class was over and we left.
