What role did humanism play in italian?

Sorry to answer you so late but "Humanism is a philosophical and ethical stance that emphasizes the value and agency of human beings, individually and collectively, and generally prefers critical thinking and evidence (rationalism, empiricism) over acceptance of dogma or superstition. The meaning of the term humanism has fluctuated according to the successive intellectual movements which have identified with it." I got this from Google.com

I hope this helped! =)

  a commission is when someone pays an artist to create a piece of art for them. patronage is when artists basically get a set salary from the government to create art for people. answer: decorative arts are arts used on a decoration of an object that has a use.
