Renaissance background (quick review)

Transition to the Reformation

The video connects Renaissance-era changes to the Reformation:

• People learned the value of knowledge and freedom of thought
• This encouraged people to challenge old beliefs
• It exposed shortcomings/excesses of the Church
• These conditions helped give rise to a movement to reform the Church

Definition and purpose of the Reformation

• The Reformation is presented as a movement to reform the Roman Catholic Church because of excesses and corruption.
• A major issue highlighted is the sale of indulgences—forgiveness of sins in exchange for money.

Key figure: Martin Luther

• Martin Luther (a German monk) is introduced as the spark of the Reformation.
• On October 31, 1517, he nailed his 95 theses to the church door in Wittenberg, Germany.
• Luther’s central complaints:
  • The church’s wrongdoings, especially indulgences
• Luther’s core teachings:
  • Salvation cannot be bought
  • Faith must be based on the Bible, not wealth/power or church authority as an intermediary
  • People can communicate with God directly, so priests are not necessary as intermediaries
  • Scripture should be accessible—he supported translating the Bible into German
• Church and authority response:
  • Pope Leo declared Luther a heretic
  • Luther was rejected through excommunication
• Luther before political power:
  • Emperor Charles V summoned him to the Diet of Worms (1521) to retract his position
  • Luther refused to retreat (“Here I am. I cannot retreat.”), inspiring others

Spread and division of Christianity

• Luther’s ideas contributed to the rise of Protestantism.
• Followers were called Lutherans.
• German princes adopted Luther’s ideas, leading to:
  • Closing some Catholic monasteries
  • Lutheran dominance in northern Germany
• Charles V attempted to restore Catholicism by war.
• After his failure, the Peace of Augsburg (1555) was signed:
  • Principle referenced: cuius regio, eius religio
    • The religion of the ruler determines the religion of the subjects
  • Each ruler could choose Catholic or Protestant

Causes of the Reformation (as listed)

• Secularism/traditionalism (as stated in subtitles; in the video context, civic concerns shifted toward questioning the Church)
• Citizens questioned and criticized the Catholic Church for being:
  • Materialistic
  • Corrupt
• Indulgences were condemned:
  • Treated as paying for forgiveness and heaven
• Interference in secular life:
  • Church officials’ power was disliked because they were seen as acting for their own benefit
• Reform and inform:
  • A drive to “unlock the truth” and correct wrongdoing

  • Founder of Calvinism
  • Taught predestination (God already knows who will be saved before birth)
• Ulrich/Huldrych Zwingli
  • Reformation leader in Zurich, Switzerland
• John Knox
  • Spread Calvin’s ideas in Scotland

  • The pope refused to annul Henry’s marriage to Catherine of Aragon
