An amendment takes an act of two-thirds of Congress and ratification by three-fourths of the states.

Further Explanation:

An amendment is essentially a law. The Constitution of the US is made up of numerous amendments (27 to be exact). These amendments help to determine what right citizens possess within American society. In order to create a new amendment, two-thirds of Congress (including the Senate and House of Representatives) must approve of the amendment. After that, the amendment then goes to the states for voting. If three-fourths of the states agree to this new amendment, then it is added to the constitution.

However, if three-fourths of the states do not approve of the amendment then it is NOT added to the Constitution. This happened before in American society with the Equal Rights Amendment. Even though it was passed by both parts of Congress, not enough states approved of this amendment so it never became law.

An amendment takes an act of two-thirds of Congress and ratification by three-fourths of the states. The changes in the amendment could be proposed either in Congress or states. The proposal must have 2/3 of both houses in congress agreeing to the amendment. Meanwhile, the state must as well have 2/3 of the state legislatures to propose the amendment. Regardless of whoever proposed the amendment, it must be ratified by ¾ of the states.

Renaissance intellectuals searched out lost classical manuscripts primarily from?
Sholpan [36]

Renaissance intellectuals searched out lost classical manuscripts primarily from libraries. From Italy, at first, humanists traveled across Europe, visiting convents and libraries, searching for lost works of Tacitus, Cicero, etc., and securing the ancient heritage of European culture.

Manuscripts were the basis of humanism. they were the life of humanism, its inspiration, and its purpose. They were the main vectors for the transmission of ancient texts and culture in the Middle Ages. Most of them, however, were lost or forgotten in remote libraries. To recover the ancient Greek and Latin texts they favored, humanists went on a European quest to find these manuscripts.
