The Renaissance and Michelangelo

On Tues. 14th, Feb. and Wed. 15th, Feb. we discussed the Renaissance and its characteristics. We looked specifically at Michelangelo as a representative of the Renaissance and his life/accomplishments.

If you were absent, you will need to do the following to make up what you missed.

1) Turn in your assignment from last time: THE HUNDRED YEARS' WAR AND POLITICAL STABILITY.

2) Read Chapter 12 Sections 1 & 2 of your text and fill in the notes sheet.

Notes: The Renaissance

3) Write a one page report typed double spaced (two pages hand written) on Michelangelo. Your paper should answer the following questions:

- Who was Michelangelo and what were some details from his life?
- What did Michelangelo do that exemplified the spirit of the Renaissance?
- What are some of the works he is most famous for?
- How did Michelangelo help develop and influence Western culture as we know it today?
- Why is it important to know Michelangelo?

Thanks.
