The topic was the first part of an investigation into the European Renaissance as a period of cultural change, leading to the reformation, and the North European Renaissance, being a consequence of that. The topic introduced new theory, such as Actor/structure relationship, Causality, Normative reasoning, Historical Mentality and Historical Materialism. We also focused on alternative sources, such as art and literature as historical remnants.
