How did Europeans justify the enslavement of black men, women, and children?

History

TiliK225 [7]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Slavery is not an institution that developed itself. Many people used the Bible as their justification of slavery. In the book of Genesis, chapter 9, Noah's youngest son Ham saw the nakedness of his father and had him covered, by his brothers. Noah then cursed Ham to be a servant to his brothers forever, Genesis 9:25-26 "Cursed be Canaan! The lowest of slaves will he be to his brothers". This is known to be the first act of slavery; which people argue is sanctioned by God. Many interpret Ham's curse as placed upon people of darker skin color, Africans more specifically. The argument is that since Ham's descendants were to be slaves forever and Africans were already slaves and inferior then they should remain in slavery.

How did wealthy families show off their wealth during the Renaissance?
zvonat [6]

The Renaissance took place in Europe during the 14th to 16th centuries with varying local features and causes. It was characterized by a change in the medieval worldview, where the presence of religious motifs was predominant, to the predominance of the reflection about the place of the human being in the universe.  

In order for this change to be financially supported, this was done by the wealthy people from the aristocracy and from the rising bourgeoisie who came to be known as <em>mecenae</em><em>.</em> These people would be honoured, painted and remebered by the artists they financed, publicizing their great cultural wealth.
