- You know ma'am, yesterday my grandfather and I had a discussion over Renaissance its various aspects. I was wondering about the philosophical ideas that prevailed among people.
- Let me tell you. People gradually began to think rationally rather than following the Church’s ideology. A sense of history developed people began to contrast their ‘modern’ world with the ancient one.
- You are right, Aadhya! Religion was no more about ‘blind-faith’ but rather about people’s choice to believe in God. New ideologies were coming up which slackened the control of religion over human life.
- Oh ma'am! I know about this. Italians were strongly attracted to material wealth, power glory. Many criticized the Christians’ notion of life of pleasure wealth sinful.
- Religion came to be seen as something which each individual could choose for themselves. They questioned the Church at every step trying to reason logically.
- Yes! Adding on, there was also a concern about good manners. But the main feature was that individuals were capable of building their own lives that human nature was many-sided.
- Oh! I remember! “You cannot teach a man anything, you can only help him to find it for himself” said by Galileo Galilei. That was what Renaissance was all about.
