Discussion
Consider the following observations relating to Renaissance and select the correct answer from the codes given below :
(i) Renaissance was marked with a new kind of learning signified by a spirit of inquiry into every aspect of human thought.
(ii) More emphasis was given to man and humanism than to god and spiritualism.
(iii) The study of the works produced by ancient Greek and Roman scholars was not given importance.
(iv) The humanist movement which ushered in Renaissance could not emancipate the western thought from the bondage of medieval Christianity.
Codes :
Answer: A
Statements (i) and (ii) are correct. The Renaissance was marked by a new spirit of inquiry in every field of thought, and it gave more importance to man and humanism than to god and spiritualism.
Statement (iii) is false, because the study of ancient Greek and Roman works was the very centre of the Renaissance. Statement (iv) is not accepted by the key since the humanist movement did free western thought from the hold of medieval Christianity. The codes with (iii) or (iv) are therefore wrong.
