Soru 35 :

The Renaissance originated in Italy for several

reasons. The most fundamental reason was that Italy

in the later Middle Ages was the most advanced

urban society in all of Europe. Unlike aristocrats north

of the Alps, Italian aristocrats customarily lived in

urban centres rather than in rural castles and

consequently became fully involved in urban public

affairs. Moreover, since the Italian aristocracy built its

palaces in the cities, the aristocratic class was less

sharply set off from the class of rich merchants than

in other European countries. Hence, whereas in

France or Germany most aristocrats lived on the

income from their lands while rich town dwellers,

called bourgeois in French, gained their living from

trade, in Italy so many town-dwelling aristocrats

engaged in banking or mercantile enterprises, and so

many rich mercantile families imitated the manners of

the aristocracy that, by the fourteenth and fifteenth

centuries, the aristocracy and upper bourgeoisie

were becoming virtually indistinguishable. For

instance, the noted Florentine family of the Medici,

which had emerged as a family of physicians (as the

name suggests), made its fortune in banking and

commerce, and rose into the aristocracy in the

fifteenth century. Obviously, social mobility as such

brought about a great demand for education in the

skills of reading and counting necessary to become a successful merchant, but the richest and most

prominent families sought above all to find teachers

who would impart to their sons the knowledge and

skills necessary in politics and public life.

 

According to the passage, unlike their French or

German counterparts, ----.

A) medieval Italian aristocrats lived in cities and

mixed with the general public

B) Italian merchants in the Renaissance period

were also engaged in trade north of the Alps

C) distinguished Italian families wished their sons to

become successful merchants

D) the Medici were actively involved in the politics

and diplomatic relations of their time

E) the Italian upper bourgeoisie were strongly

opposed to social mobility

 

 

Cevap 35 : A
Çözüm 35 : Parçada verilmiş açık bir yargıyı bulmamız istenmektedir.Parçadaki “Unlike aristocrats North of the Alps, Italian aristocrats customarily lived in urban centres rather than in rural castles and consequently became fully involved in urban public affairs.” ifadelerinden Fransız ve Alman meslektaşlarının tersine İtalyan aristokratlar halkla iç içe şehirlerde yaşamışlardır.
