Baroque was all about being highly ornate, flamboyant, over the top, and other similar notions. In music, one of the greatest achievements was the development of tonality which was about composing music in a certain key, which is a feature that is still used nowadays in most songs. New instrumental ways of performing were developed as well as well as huge performances with numerous people participating.

In art, baroque painters wanted to separate themselves from the renaissance artists and focused on using warm colors with great depth and dramatic scenes with dark and light often clashing. They cared about dramatic moments and not just about random daily activities or about events that preceded those great moments.

When it comes to science, Baroque just further expanded on the ideas that were related to renaissance. Scientists from the Age of Baroque were responsible for the scientific revolution. These people were famous scientists who often clashed with the church like Galileo, Copernicus, Descartes, and numerous others.

When it comes to church, Baroque was really important. Unlike the previous renaissance period when the church lost some of its power, in baroque the church flourished because they encouraged baroque as an opposition to the austerity of the protestant church and its beliefs. The Catholic church supported baroque artists because they created in grandeur that was befitting of the catholic church.

The philosophy of the Baroque era was not precisely related to Baroque itself since it was primarily an art movement, so they are mostly referred to as philosophers of the 17th century instead of baroque philosophy. In regards to what they dealt with, they were mostly a bridge between enlightenment, renaissance, and later romantic philosophy tendencies.

Politically, Baroque was a way of showing your class and your social status. Since it was all about grandeur and presentation, the nobles and Kings of various countries enjoyed baroque as it enabled them to fully become absolutists and become larger than life. Although there were wars and conquering and similar, most recognized people from the area are people like Louis XIV of France, also known as the Sun King who was basically treated in France like a god.

The quote "Augustus could boast that he inherited it brick and left it marble" can best be determined to mean that
frez [133]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The quote "Augustus could boast that he inherited it brick and left it marble" can best be determined to mean the following.

The quote can be understood as the capacity of teh "knack" few people have to turn some simple thing into a brilliant important one. For instance, a businessman buys a company that is doing poorly and purchases it at a very affordable price, and with the pass of time, this businessman turns the company into a success.

The same could be applied to a politician that gets to the office and inherit a city in poor economic conditions, with problems in education, crime, and other social issues. But the politician has the skills and leadership needed to turn the situation around and deliver great results.
