I’m pretty sure the answer is C: Humanism

Edit: Renaissance humanism to be exact.

The trick here is to consider everything that you know about the keywords; if you can’t remember which one it is, you can at least eliminate the ones that it’s not. Sometimes that’s about the same thing, as far as test results go; otherwise, you can at least improve the odds of a guess.

C. Which really should read Renaissance Humanism, to separate it from all the other humanistic movements.

The answer is C.
Humanism was a cultural movement during the Renaissance that stressed the power and importance of the individual and placed less emphasis on the divine. It also centered around the study of the classics such as the works of the Greeks and Romans.

I recently studied the Italian Renaissance.
