How did Renaissance bring about a sense of redemption in the Europeans?
Upvote:1
Sorry to be very direct, but your train of thought is wrong because it is based on wrong premises.
First wrong premise, there was no special feeling of oppression during the Middle Age: the social order was unequal based on today's criteria, but by the time it was justified by practical necessities and religion. And most people, in Europe during the Middle Age, had the faith.
Second wrong premise, Renaisssance liberated people of the oppression: it is wrong because Renaissance was very difficult for "common people" (not for artists on the other hand): numerous wars, political difficulties, a very long change in the conditions of life... Renaissance did not bring freedom nor prosperity in a few years.
So how did the Renaissance bring a sense of redemption?
- Renaissance, contrary to what you seem to imagine, precisely bring the Reform because people start loosing faith in the Church (not in God) because they realized the Pope was a political object for France, the Holy Roman Empire or Charles Quint
