Hundred Years War ended – societies more stable and populations grew as people focused on themselves/progress • 2. Printing Press invented by Johann Gutenberg in 1440 – easier to spread ideas to universities in N Europe • Critical of Church, wanted reforms to society • Thomas More – “Utopia” an ideal place with no greed, corruption, war, need for $$$, human nature? • 1564-1616, almost 2,000 new words, led to standardization of English language • Did he write his works? – never in S Europe, yet wrote about ideas there; used 5 times as many words as the avg human vocabulary; not formally educated • Common – new ways of thinking, focus on lit and the arts • Different – NR held on to religious ideals more, art more focused on realistic lives of people
