Question 1:

Easy

During the Renaissance, there was a resurgence of interest in the knowledge and art of Classical Antiquity, accompanied by significant changes in thought and social structure. Based on the reading of the following excerpt from 'The Prince' (1513) by Niccolò Machiavelli, analyze the transformations that the author proposes in the exercise of power and discuss, based on your historical and literary knowledge, how these ideas reflect the spirit of the Renaissance: 'And he who imagines that a prince must imitate the fox because of its cunning, and the lion because of its strength, will deceive himself. For above all, it is necessary to be a fox, to recognize the traps and a lion, to terrify the wolves.' (Machiavelli, N. The Prince, trans. by L. Bacescu, 1957). In your response, consider the following aspects: 1) How does Machiavelli's excerpt reflect the valorization of knowledge and individual skill typical of the Renaissance? 2) In what ways did the changes in political and social thought, stemming from the Renaissance, manifest in other cultural expressions, such as art and literature?

During the Renaissance, the valorization of arts, sciences, and humanities led to a great cultural transformation in Europe, expanding beyond Italy and influencing thought and intellectual production in various areas. Philosophers, artists, and scientists sought to rescue the ideas and aesthetics of Classical Antiquity while developing new concepts and techniques. Considering the Renaissance context, how did it change the prevailing worldview at the time, promoting a paradigm shift in European thought and influencing the cultural, scientific, and economic practices that followed? Discuss the main aspects of this transformation and provide at least one significant contribution from an artist, scientist, or thinker of that period.
