  3. Questions for Discussion • What is your historical question that helps us think about Chapter 2? • What was the most important thing you learned in this chapter? Did it confirm your earlier assumptions, or did it make you think differently about the background to the Reformation?

  4. Historical Questions • In what ways did the Reconquista affect Catholic belief in Spain? • Should historians look beyond key people to consider the general public in the expansion of Christendom / Reformation? • Did a lack of major non-Christian religions allow the Reformation to flourish in Northern Europe as distinct from Spain?

  5. Historical Questions • To what extent did Islamic military aggression affect the rise of Protestantism? • In what ways did Spain use Christianity to fulfill imperialistic desires? • Would the Reformation have happened without the technology of print?

  6. Questions for Discussion • Chapter 2 is entitled “Hopes and Fears, 1490-1517.” Pay attention to the concepts of hope and fear, optimism and pessimism, and related ideas as you read the chapter.
