	Chairs - Sixteenth Century
		Early in the sixteenth century painted chairs were commonly in vogue both in England and on the Continent of Europe.
		All through the sixteenth century it was customary to place armchairs for those entitled to sit at the high places at table, benches and stools being used by others.
		Towards the close of the century stools and benches gave place to chairs, and household furniture became more uniform, owing, probably, to the gradual division of the servants and retainers from the family, all of whom had at an earlier period feasted in the common hall.

		From the mid-fourteenth century, the crown had held the beneplácito regio, the right to confirm and ratify official proclamations of the church leadership, but even in the sixteenth century it did not gain the full control of patronage achieved by the Spanish crown.
		In the sixteenth century, church income in Portugal was about 50 percent greater than the domestic income of the crown, but much of it was not regularly taxable.
		An equally grave handicap to Portugal was the failure of its social framework to adjust to the increasingly rigorous demands of maritime activity during the second half of the sixteenth century.

	Was there a Reformation in the sixteenth century? - SIS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Much of the sixteenth century was "old" and "medieval." To argue that the Protestant Reformation was an essentially medieval phenomenon does not preclude the acknowledgment that some notions and ideas were new.
		These two periods, the fifteenth century and the late sixteenth century, are seen as having been more powerful, effecting more lasting change, and entailing more profound significance, than the first half century from 1500 to 1555.
		Hillerbrand argues that while there was a Reformation that occurred in the sixteenth century, the real issues are whether the Reformation had an age or a period, and whether the event can be rightly defined as a radical break with the past.

	The Sixteenth Century and Education
		Given the spectacle presented by the sixteenth century, so much change-so much innovation and reshaping in church, state, the arts, literature, science and technology, commerce-so much exploration and colonization, one may understandably construe the Reformation as the sum total of dramatic socio-cultural movements occurring in sixteenth-century Europe and continuing into the seventeenth century.
		Europeans of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries experienced a complex of changes-economic, political, technological, religious, scientific, aesthetic-which demanded a substantial increase in the pool of leadership capacity.
		As popularly understood in the twentieth century, catechism refers to a form of instruction mainly for children, although it was used with children and adults alike in civilized antiquity, the schools of Judaism, and the early Christian church, and was so used again during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.

	Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2004.05.15
		Freedman argues that this mode of representation was problematic for a Christian society but flourished in the sixteenth century, and not before or afterwards.
		Similarly, Renaissance illustrations and copies of classical deities reveal which details of the classical versions were thought to be important: in an early print of the Apollo Belvedere, Nicoletto da Modena took no notice of the god's tresses and fillet, whereas subsequent copies and adaptations recognized the distinctive historicity of the hairstyle.
		It is striking, though Freedman does not make the point, that the material from the first group is nearly all from the first half of the sixteenth century, and that the majority of the attacks in the second group come from the second half of the century.

		The first part, about a third of the book, considers the state of France in the first half of the century, with the focus on political and judicial institutions and, to a lesser extent, on economics.
		The second part is a military and political narrative history of the religious wars that wracked France during the second half of the century, but the stress on social history is also continued.
		A general knowledge of the political history of the period is pretty much assumed, though the glossary and chronology at the back make the book bearable for the novice.

	H-Net Review: Gerard F. Denault on France in the Sixteenth Century
		The third section presents the "short sixteenth century," the one that inspired Baumgartner's own dissertation[3].
		Generally, studies of specific events and personalities have been situated in either a "short sixteenth century" dominated by the Wars of Religion or a "long sixteenth century" tracing the building of the "New," administrative, or judicial monarchy.
		Although Baumgartner makes progress in achieving this goal, his initial caution that he is dealing with the "long sixteenth century" forewarns the reader that he has not produced a completely integrated narrative.

	Carleton Cunningham: The Devil and the Religious Controversies of Sixteenth-Century France
		In concentrating on behavior and practice, as opposed to doctrine and dogma, these historians have shown that Christianity as understood by the masses was at times far removed from the liturgical and doctrinal controversies of the elite.
		While most Protestant intellectuals did not expressly deny the existence of spirits, they insisted that apparitions were not the souls of dead men but rather were evil spirits sent by the devil to lure weak souls through guile and deception into devilry and wickedness.
		Keith Thomas contends that, "although it may be a relatively frivolous question today to ask whether or not one believes in ghosts, it was in the sixteenth century a shibboleth which distinguished Protestant from Catholic almost as effectively as belief in the Massor the Papal Supremacy.

		, which began slightly later and lasted until the seventeenth century, Northern Mannerism in the early sixteenth century is characterized by unique stylistic and thematic traits, a number of which derive from late Gothic art.
		Though many of the early sixteenth-century Mannerists were based in Antwerp, where the movement was most clearly defined, other centers in France, Germany, and the southern and northern Netherlands (i.e., present-day Belgium and Holland, respectively) were important for the transmission and divergence of the style.
		The devotional character of Northern Mannerism in the early sixteenth century is perhaps the movement's most consistent and enduring feature.
