In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, Western Europe underwent dramatic changes in the political,Social, cultural, religious and economic spheres. The Italian humanist Petrarch’s Canzoniere, German theologian Martin Luther’s ‘Ninety-five These’ and Portugal prince Henry’s Navigation school heralded the dawn of the modern era. The Holy Roman Empire and the Roman church became weak and discredited. In their place nation states,new Churches that emphasized individual faith, and a commercial revolution based on mercantilism emerged. The modern era was characterized by freedom of thought, individualism, rationalism, and economic and scientific progress. let us look at the changes ushered in by the Renaissance, Reformation and Geographical Discoveries.

1. Renaissance

With the coming of the scholars and artists from Constantinople there was a surge of enthusiasm and interest in studying classical literature and art of Greeks and Romans in the Italian city States. This creative upsurge was reflected in their writings, art, Architecture and music. This cultural florescence is known as the renaissance. The origin of the world renaissance is from the Italian word renascita meaning rebirth. Greek scholar Manuel Chrysoloras who taught Greek classics in Italy, Guarino and Giovanni Aurispa, to name just a few, visited Constantinople several times to collect Greek manuscripts. Later they printed what they collected. This provided stimulus to the flowering of renaissance.

Why Italy became the birth place of Renaissance?

Italian city-states such as Florence,Milan, Venice, and Rome profited immensely from the Mediterranean trade. This led to the emergence of a rich and vibrant urban culture. The rich families of these city States such as Medicis of Florence patronized literature, art and music. The highpoint of this period was between 1475 A.D.(C.E) and 1525 A.D.(C.E). Italian universities taught humanities viz., linguistic, grammar, rhetoric, history, science and ethics, which prepared the students for public life, commerce and administration. The study of humanities was so popular in Italian University that students from all over Europe flocked there. Classical Greek and Latin literature introduced the  idea of Humanism which got reflected in the paintings, sculptures, architecture,music and writings of that period.

Humanism in Literature

The idea of  humanism was first expressed in literature. The humanists were critical of medieval ideas and institutions and greatness. Petrarch (1304 – 1374 A.D.(C.E)) was the first to adopt ideas of classical humanism in his works and is therefore called the Father of Humanism. Dante, influenced by the classics, wrote Divine comedy. Machivelli wrote a political treatise called The Prince. In this book, he wrote about the virtues that a ruler should possess. He declared that a ruler should possess. He declared that a ruler should be Lion and Fox in one. For him, the end was more important than means. Erasmus (1466-1536 A.D.(C.E)), known as the Prince among Humanists, wrote In praise of Folly, a satirical work on the activities and rituals of the Church. Sir Thomas more of England wrote Utopia,a satire on the political evils of his time. Cervantes of Spain wrote Don Quixote, another satire on Medieval chivalry and valour.

Impact on Art

Renaissance paintings and sculptures were realistic and naturalistic. They improved over Medieval paintings and sculptures which were stylized, unrealistic and two dimensional. They portrayed natural landscapes,human anatomy,emotions and ideas.

In the field of art ,great artists like Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael dominated the scene and produced some of the finest artistic works. Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519 A.D.(C.E)) was a versatile genius. He was a painter, sculptor, architect, millitary engineer, anatomist, and poet. His paintings of Mona Lisa(La Giaconda), The last supper and The virgin on the Rocks are illustrious examples of his talent.

Michelangelo (1475-1564 A.D. (C. E)) was a painter, sculpture of David depicts the youthful strength and energy of the giant Slayer. He is also famous for his paintings in the ceilings of the Sistine Chapel in Rome. Raphael (1483-1520 A.D. (C.E)) painted beautiful Madonnas . His painting of the school of Athens reveals the ideological debate of his times, namely,the conflict between spiritualism and humanism.

Science during Renaissance

The advances in science were inspired by Ptolemy, Archimedes,Euclid and others of the classical period. In the medieval period the Aristotelian view that earth was the centre of the universe strengthened the Church’s view of creation and its own centrality to mankind. However,the influence of Palto and other classics challenged it, laying the foundations of modern science. William Harvey discovered the circulation of blood. Copernicus proved the earth revolved around the sun through a mathematical model. Galileo provided the telescope he invented. However,he was forced by the Inquisition to withdraw his findings on the threat of death penalty. The Church thus continued to prevent the growth of science as it undermined its importance. Nevertheless, scientific discoveries and inventions continued apace leading to the Scientific Revolution.

Effects of Renaissance

The impact of renaissance was profound and far-reaching. Its most important contribution was the idea of humanism. It marked a definite shift towards individualism, secularism and nationalism
The introduction and practice of writing in the vernacular, starting from Dante, enriched the growth of vernacular languages which in turn provided the intellectual basis for the rise of nation-states . Renaissance made a beginning in criticizing the corrupt and worldly practices of the Church. Erasmus and Thomas More indirectly encouraged the reformation movement.
The curiosity kindled by the remaining played a decisive role in the discovery of new land routes and remapping of the world. The spirit of adventurism and quest for knowledge impelled the Mariners to sail into the high seas.
Similarly, inquisitiveness and empiricism of renaissance combined with knowledge of the classical science led to new inventions in science-Copernican revolution in astronomy and Willam Harvey’s contribution to human anatomy.

Programming Language- it is vocabulary and a collection of rules that command a computer, devices, applications to work according to the written codes. The programing language enables us to write efficient programs and develop online solutions such as- mobile applications, web applications, and games, etc.

Programming is used to automate, maintain, assemble, measure and interpret the processing of the data and information. It helps in accelerating the input and output of the devices or applications.

Programing language is also named as high-level languages. Some of the commonly used languages are- C, C++, Java, JavaScript, React JS, PHP, .Net, etc. The mobile applications are coded by using different languages having distinct features. However, programming languages share a lot of similarities with each other.

• To advance your ability to develop real algorithms- Most of the languages come with a lot of features for the Programmers. They can be used in a proper way to get the best results.
• To Improve Customization of Your Current Coding- By using basic features of the existing programming language you can simplify things to program a better option to write resourceful codes. There is no compulsion of writing code in a specific way. The thing which matters is the usage of features used and clarity of the concept.
• To Increase Your Vocabulary Of beneficial Programming Constructs- Programmers use high-level languages to express thoughts. And, by using the best features they can easily explain the working of a specific application, device, etc.

In the 35 years from 1929, when Gandhi chose Nehru as president of the Congress session at Lahore, until his death, as prime minister, in 1964, Nehru remained—despite the debacle of the brief conflict with China in 1962—the idol of his people. His secular approach to politics contrasted with Gandhi’s religious and traditionalist attitude, which during Gandhi’s lifetime had given Indian politics a religious cast—misleadingly so, for, although Gandhi may have appeared to be a religious conservative, he was actually a social nonconformist trying to secularize Hinduism. The real difference between Nehru and Gandhi was not in their attitudes toward religion but in their attitudes toward civilization. Whereas Nehru talked in an increasingly modern idiom, Gandhi was harking back to the glories of ancient India.

The importance of Nehru in the perspective of Indian history is that he imported and imparted modern values and ways of thinking, which he adapted to Indian conditions. Apart from his stress on secularism and on the basic unity of India, despite its ethnic and religious diversities, Nehru was deeply concerned with carrying India forward into the modern age of scientific discovery and technological development. In addition, he aroused in his people an awareness of the necessity of social concern with the poor and the outcast and of respect for democratic values. One of the achievements of which he was particularly proud was the reform of the ancient Hindu civil code that finally enabled Hindu widows to enjoy equality with men in matters of inheritance and property.

Internationally, Nehru’s star was in the ascendant until October 1956, when India’s attitude on the Hungarian Revolution against the Soviets brought his policy of nonalignment (neutralism) under sharp scrutiny by the noncommunist countries. In the United Nations, India was the only nonaligned country to vote with the Soviet Union on the invasion of Hungary, and it was thereafter difficult for Nehru to command credence in his calls for nonalignment. In the early years after independence, anticolonialism had been the cornerstone of his foreign policy. His interest in the issue waned, however, after Zhou Enlai, the Chinese prime minister, stole the spotlight from him at the Bandung Conference of African and Asian countries that was held in Indonesia in 1955. By the time of the first conference of the Non-Aligned Movement in Belgrade, Yugoslavia (now in Serbia), in 1961, Nehru had substituted nonalignment for anticolonialism as his most-pressing concern.
