In this essay prompt, Marsilius of Padua’s argument was summarized as follows, “Marsilius of Padua argued that Christ’s kingdom was meant to be wholly of another world and that religious authorities should have nothing to do with temporal power.” I agree with the outcome of that statement.

For centuries, Africans and their belief systems have been derided. Instead of being studied as “valid and meaningful responses to the universal terms of human existence,” African religions have often been considered “exotic objects… peculiar and incomprehensible or repellent.” For many Europeans, Christianity was by far the superior religion, and they strove to convert Africans.

Now during the play you don’t see the outright effects of this famine. You see subtle hints here and there throughout the play. For instance, when you focus on

Upon their arrival in Padua, Lucentio with his “trusty servant”, Tranio, declares his desire to “haply institute A course of learning and ingenious studies.” (The Taming of the Shrew I.I.8-9). It is clear that Lucentio aims to impress his father and pursue knowledge in order to be a deserving heir to Vincentio’s wealth.
