The human rights movement refers to a non-governmental social movement  engaged in activism involving resistance to racism, slavery, oppression, apartheid and any form of discrimination and violence against humans. During the 20th century the primary motivation for campaigns promoting human rights was to persuade and put pressure upon the United Nations to explicitly protect "human rights" in tis founding documents. This came as a result of World War II and The Holocaust, were more than 6 million people were murdered by the hands of Nazi Germany and its allies.

How were the ideals of the Renaissance expressed in England? Provide examples in your answer.
Marta_Voda [28]
The English Renaissance, which developed behind the success and ideals of the Italian Renaissance, flourished during the rule of Elizabeth I, the last Tudor monarch and her successor James I, the first Stuart monarch. 

Like other countries of Europe that experienced this surge in culture, science, religion, and revolution, England produced great academic and social materials which not only influence their day, but all later periods of world history. Literary works by Shakespear and Christopher Marlowe, as well as the transformative scientific treatises by Francis Bacon, and humanist movements celebrated by early Reniassiance figures like Thomas More all highlight the different facets of the English Reniassance. 

Transformations in religion can also attribued to the ideas of the Reniassance, while the Church of England was established mainly for political reasons, the ideas behind change in religion were well recieved among those in the Reniassance, as a result we see the emmergence of Calvinism and Protestantism in England.
