Printing Press and Renaissance Learning impact Reformation

In class we looked at the importance of putting the Bible into vernacular languages (English, French, Spanish, Italian, Mandarin etc etc) for people to understand their faith. This is a foundational (main) belief in the Protestant faith. Keep that lens in mind while answering these three questions.

Explain ONE way that Christian Humanism embodied (seen) in the writings of Erasmus employed (used) Renaissance learning in the service of religious reform.

Explain one way that Protestant reformers used the printing press to disseminate (spread) their ideas, which spurred (caused) religious reform and helped it to become widely established.

Explain one way that technology played a role in forming and transforming European religious beliefs in the 16th Century.
