Hughes, Chapter 3

1. In three or four sentences, identify and explain the historical significance of

  • Hanseatic League = Jessica Crich
  • Edict of Worms = Chris Davies
  • League of Schmalkalden / Schmalkaldic League
  • Kingdom of Münster = Lindsay Dennis
  • Thomas Müntzer
  • Twelve Articles: bring a copy to class = Amanda Doran
  • Peace of Augsburg (1555)

    List your source(s) of information in correct bibliographical form.

    Type your answers! Here is a brief example of how you should proceed with the identification. Yours needs to be a little bit longer:

    René Descartes was a leading French mathematician and philosopher of the first half of the seventeenth century. His Principles of Philosophy (1664) provided a thorough philosophical basis for the notion of the world as a machine, a view that was championed by the Scientific Revolution.

    Devise a question that will elicit a broad class discussion of the material covered in Chapter 3. The question must be of the sort that we can actually answer based on a reading of Chapter 3 and that requires more than a one-sentence answer. Think in terms of an essay question. Your question should be a real question, one that ends with a question mark. In one paragraph, explain the validity / usefulness of your question.

    = Blake Dunn, Daniel Lobelsohn: Do not collaborate. Type up your own questions / paragraphs.
