the Reformation (1 янв 1517 г. – 1 янв 1648 г.)

Описание:

During this time period, figures like Martin Luther and Henry VIII emerged as pivotal voices challenging the entrenched corruption within the Church, advocating for a redistribution of its power. While the Reformation initially took root in Germany, similar sentiments proliferated in Switzerland and England, all buoyed by humanist ideals that promoted independent thought over blind deference to authority. Protestants rallied against the Church's malfeasance, sparking conflicts that reshaped the religious landscape and gave rise to diverse Protestant denominations. The Reformation played a significant role in shaping classical liberalism by fostering individual autonomy and civic engagement. The proliferation of printing presses and translations of the Bible empowered individuals to educate themselves and form their own perspectives. Central to the Reformation ethos was the belief in standing against authoritarian dictates, a principle that resonates deeply with the foundational principles of classical liberalism, emphasizing individual agency and resistance to unchecked authority.
