The Reformation’s Contribution to the Fragmentation of Europe
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 4 page paper discussing how the Reformation contributed to the fragmentation of Europe. At the beginning of the 16th century, the Roman Catholic Church commanded a great deal of religious, political and social power in Europe. Those who did not believe in the sanctity, methods and power of the Church were condemned for their beliefs. During this time, there were several individuals within the Church who wished to return to a more pure and simple Christian lifestyle but would have to work against the Church to do so. Desiderius Erasmus, Thomas More, Martin Luther and John Calvin all preached how the common man could have a direct relationship with God without the intercession of priests. Because the Catholic Church held a great deal of economic power, many with the merchant class, nobility and the monarchy resented the transfer of wealth to the Church. When Protestantism began to sweep across Europe the populations embraced the idea of independence from the power of the Church; the result however was the fragmentation of the strong religious union in Europe and the development of ongoing civil wars for centuries to come.
