What were some important effects of the reformation

History
2 answers:
Setler [38]3 years ago

<span>The Reformation’s most direct impact was upon religious and philosophical thought. It came about largely through dissatisfaction with the Catholic Church, which was a preeminent authority in Europe in the 1500s, when the Reformation began. As a result, the Church was fractured, giving rise to the multitude of Christian denominations that are seen in modern times.

</span><span>Reformation leaders like Martin Luther declared authority should be derived from the Bible, not the Pope or the Church, giving rise to Protestant systems of belief. Religions like Lutheranism are a direct result of the Reformation.
</span>

The movement had economic impact as well. John Calvin, another Reformation leader, taught a doctrine of predestination and hard work. He taught that financial success was a sign one was destined to salvation in the afterlife, and that merchants who succeeded in business did so because God looked upon them favorably. This gave rise to what is known as the “Protestant work ethic,” which led to the economic system of capitalism.

The Reformation inspired a mood of anti-authoritarianism, which led to backlash against the feudal system and, by extension, to the democratic movement around the world. In the centuries following the Reformation, movements like women’s suffrage and the abolition of slavery traced their roots back to Reformation-era principles.

Up until this point, the Catholic Church had basically a monopoly on religion in Europe. Most definitely it was the only real Christian religion at the time. Before the Reformation, it could easily be said that the Pope was the real ultimate authority in Europe, not the king of any particular nation. Life in Medieval times revolved around the Church. 

<span>With the rise of the Protestant Reformation the Catholic Church, and in essence, the Pope was no longer the supreme authority in Europe. Kings of the Protestant nations became the true rulers of their nations. </span>

<span>Without the Reformation, the power and corruption within the Catholic Church would have continued to grow. Instead, this put a check on it.</span>

Why do the jews speak in yiddish in front of the polish smugglers? was this a good idea? explain?
Greeley [361]

They do this so the Polish smugglers won't be able to understand them. This was a good idea, particularly for the Jews relying on Yiddish language, in order to convey secrets among themselves. The Jews have no trust to the smugglers in front of them, and so they use the language to have an advantage.

<em>Historical Background</em>

The history of the Jews in Poland dates back over 1,000 years. Many children were smuggled to Poland, where the conscription of Jews did not take effect until 1844.
