Fine then. Which arguments behind the Renaissance do you find to be pathetic? That we should use our fucking heads and think?
Christopher Butler
For the greatest minds of our generation to use all the world's knowledge available at our fingertips to re-analyze the history of human presence on Earth and reach new hitherto impossible understandings of our existence.

Except that's not even close to the philosophy behind the Renaissance. The philosophy behind the Renaissance is that we should throw away everything that defines the West and start cosplaying as ancient Romans, because muh shitalian heritage wewuz Caesars n shiet.

Yeah, why enjoy well-documented, historically relevant Greeks when you can masturbate over a few ruins and unproven theories over how the Greek-Indian master race taught Indians how to make Buddhas.

Kill yourself.
French were barbarian niggers during the Middle Ages. They don't have any philosopher as great as Thomas Aquinas.
Lincoln Peterson
lmao, look up where Thomas Aquinas studied and did all his work Luigi.
Hint: it wasn't fucking shitaly
Brody Peterson
Dude, Thomas Aquinas is the poor man's Peter Abelard, and he studied and wrote at the University of Paris.
Sorry but medieval Italy was a backwater shithole, France was where it was at.

Doesn't change that the fact that the three most important philosophers of the Middle Ages weren't frogs:
>John Duns >William of Ockham >Thomas Aquinas
Paris was richer and more developed at the time, so that's where some of the scholars went to study. Doesn't mean shit.

Dylan Fisher
Peter Abelard is by far the most important medieval philosopher, and there are dozens of other French ones on the same level as the ones you listed.
Kayden Sanchez
>richest and most developed country
Just Paris you faggot. The rest of France was an irrelevant shithole. The Italian city-states were way more wealthy and developed than the rest of Europe: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_city-states
>Between the 12th and 13th centuries, Italy was vastly different from feudal Europe north of the Alps. The Peninsula was a melange of political and cultural elements, not a unified state.
>By the 13th century, northern and central Italy had become the most literate society in the world. More than one third of the male population could read in the vernacular (an unprecedented rate since the decline of the Western Roman Empire), as could a small but significant proportion of women.
>It is estimated that the per capita income of northern Italy nearly tripled from the 11th century to the 15th century. This was a highly mobile, demographically expanding society, fueled by the rapidly expanding Renaissance commerce.
>In the 14th century, just as the Italian Renaissance was beginning, Italy was the economic capital of Western Europe
Juan Sullivan
Italy only became relevant once France was taken down by the Hundred Years War and the Plague.
And what did shitalians do with their half hour of relevance? Create an "intellectual" movement based entirely on being buttblasted at France and which set back scientific progress by 300 years. Thank God France eclipsed Italy again in the early 1600s and we returned to the path of progress.
Levi Peterson
>The renaissance setback scientific progress by 300 years An I reading this correctly?

Yes?
>there are people on Veeky Forums who still don't know this
Notice that like almost half of them are mudslimes and there are much less figures from France than from Italy.

The entire foundation of modern physics and mathematics dates from the 14th century. Everything that Galileo wrote about physics was discovered at that time.
Meanwhile Renaissance "scientists" did nothing except translate ancient books and reject all medieval advancements because they dared contradict Aristotle. This period of reactionary obscurantism only ended when Galileo rediscovered medieval science, and people like Descartes and Francis Bacon reformulated medieval philosophy.
Brody Wood
Can you even name one relevant Renaissance scientist?
Kevin Rivera
Leonardo da Vinci
Jeremiah Perry
>The entire foundation of modern physics and mathematics dates from the 14th century
Yes. Close to the time of the Renaissance. What about the rest of the Middle Ages that didn't produce anything of relevance?
Isaiah Kelly
The 14th century in France (and England) is the Middle Ages and has nothing to do with the Italian Renaissance.
Parker Powell
>Galileo rediscovered Medieval science. >Scientists rejected findings because they contradicted Aristoteles.
Excuse me, what? Would you kindly explain to me how, say, the basics of our understanding of pressure fit within a Artistotelian framework (Torricelli)?
Luis Bell
>ignoring the Italian figures from the Late Middle Ages
Why are you so biased you frog nigger?

What are you even trying to say? Aristotlean thermodynamics are completely wrong and were disproved in the 17th century, after the Renaissance had ended. Torricelli also lived in the 17th century.

These aren't random names I listed. They are taken from: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_medieval_European_scientists and I added some other figures along with them that I consider important. What's the point of listing some faggot irrelevant monk?
Jonathan Rivera
Nobody cares about your phonebook of shitalian literally whos m8.
Andrew Reed
Keep being buttdevastated, frog. Italy BTFOs France at accomplishments per capita since France was always the most populous country of Western Europe.
Andrew White

Jordan Mitchell
I think you should be a little more grateful to France for bringing you civilization and creating your country.
Adrian Harris
That doesn't matter. The Italian peninsula is a real geographic location.
Everyone agrees that the unification was a mistake. Italian history past that point is nothing but shame. Fuck France.
Kayden Young
What about Dominaboo (Late Roman Empire-philes for you barbarians)?
Jaxon Rogers
The point is Italy was almost as populated as France throughout history, and yet according to your own graph is barely half as relevant.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA fuck I hadn't looked at the pic, you actually shooped it to make Italy look less pathetic
Now that's just sad
Michael Hill
oh shit nigger
Hudson Wood
I didn't shoop anything. I saved this pic from /pol/. What if it's yours that's shooped?
Dominic Barnes
I have the book you double nigger.
In any case, an Italian was butthurt and insecure enough to actually shoop this in an effort to make Italy seem less irrelevant.
Caleb Williams

Jaxon Foster
Italy is not irrelevant even if we take this one as fact. It's still inside the European Core.
Show the map distributing the figures by region now. It's probably different from mine.
Jace Russell
Nope those are the same. You don't really think a lazy Luigi would have gone through the trouble of shooping that too do you.
Jackson Miller
Show me.
Those could be just two different editions of the book. Italy is not the only thing that's different. Belgium is above Spain in mine.
Wyatt Baker
AustriaHungaryboo is below naziboo
Zachary Murphy
It's not two different editions you knob, those are the exact same scan but for the shoop:
Jason Parker
And where's the rest of the scan of the other one?

I already told you the other pages are the same as in the shooped collage you posted.

>Byzaboo >Bottom of the Barrel Why? They survived longer than the actual Roman Empire, made sure Christianity survived in the east, and protected Islam from expanding into Europe for centuries. The Patriarch of Rome's treachery is the reason why Europe they fell.
Brayden Lee
Can you just fucking post the map of the figures from the pdf version of the book to compare already? Why would someone shoop that? Seems stupid. Putting Belgium above Spain and augmenting Italy's accomplishments for no reason?
Easton Long
being a byzaboo on Veeky Forums is pleb tier because it's mainstream. It's babby's first esothic empire of admiration
Gabriel Price
Fuck's sake, happy?
Augmenting Italy is pretty fucking obvious. No clue why Luigi switched Belgium and Spain though, maybe in a feeble attempt at plausible deniability or something.
Wyatt Wood
fornicating with a heifer
Nathan Hernandez
All -boos are fine. Enjoy whatever you like.
Jonathan Miller
Alright so, 1400-1600 looks the same, but the rest is clearly different. There are almost no figures from 1600-1800 compared to the other one. Anyone who has done some basic research of that period knows this is bullshit. Italy produced quite a few important figures during the Age of Enlightenment and stuff:
This is unironically the only good response in this thread. Fuck all of you for even suggesting in jest that people having a favourite historical civilisation are plebs.

lol Italy was an irrelevant piece of shit during the Enlightenment, and you posted the same maps he did.
Owen Bailey
They are not. I'll compare them side by side for you to see. They're fucking different versions. He fucked up by not including a shitton of figures from Italy. That's a fact.

he was pretty harsh on spain as well. the author is a filthy perfidious *nglo after all. there's no way we don't have a little more figures than that. northern europeans have inferiority complex towards meds because they wouldn't be shit without them.
Jordan Green

No one outside of shitaly has ever heard of any of those irrelevant Fagotto Fagottinis, and those maps are exactly the same how fucking blind are you? You just didn't put them in the same order for some reason.
