DIRECTIONS: Short Answer Answer each of the following questions.

“Since your most serene majesty and your high mightinesses require of me a simple, clear and direct answer, I will give one, and it is this: I can not submit my faith either to the pope or to the council, because it is as clear as noonday that they have fallen into error and even into glaring inconsistency with themselves. If, then, I am not convinced by proof from Holy Scripture, or by cogent reasons, if I am not satisfi ed by the very text I have cited, and if my judgment is not in this way brought into subjection to God’s word, I neither can nor will retract [take back] anything; for it can not be right for a Christian to speak against his country. I stand here and can say no more. ”

Chapter Test, Document-Based Questions

DIRECTIONS: Multiple Choice Indicate the answer choice that best answers the question.

“[Shakespeare] was thirty before he undertook the completion of his fi rst tragedy, more or less properly so called, Romeo and Juliet, in 1594. Perhaps this ambitious work was his fi rst play designed for the Lord Chamberlain’s Men; as probably his next tragedy fi ve years later, Julius Caesar, was designed for the opening of the Globe. They would have been substantial incentives [things that motivate], the formation of the company, the erection of the new theatre. In the interim [time between] he made many more comedies and histories.

”It is reasonable to enquire [ask] what happened to the man who during 1599 and 1600 probably wrote Henry V, Julius Caesar, As You Like It, Twelfth Night, who in 1601 wrote Hamlet and followed it during the next fi ve years with...Othello, with King Lear, with Macbeth.”

—John Berryman, Berryman’s Shakespeare: Essays, Letters, and Other Writings

________ 1. What were Shakespeare’s incentives for writing Romeo and Juliet and Julius Caesar?

A. to support a new company and a new theater

B. to attract rising young actors and draw in larger audiences

C. to join the Academy of Arts and Sciences and win a literary prize

D. to win the favor of the king and queen and become a noble

“[Th]hose preachers of indulgences are in error, who say that by the pope’s indulgences a man is freed from every penalty, and saved; . . .

“If it is at all possible to grant to any one the remission [forgiveness or release from] of all penalties whatsoever, it is certain that this remission can be granted only to the most perfect, that is, to the very fewest. . . .

“It must needs be, therefore, that the greater part of the people are deceived by that indiscriminate [random] and highsounding promise of release from penalty.”

—Martin Luther, 95 Theses

________ 2. According to Luther, why are preachers of indulgences in error?

A. They promote the idea that people can be saved by faith alone.

B. They teach that indulgences can free people of punishment for their sins.

C. They proclaim that the Church is the only guide to salvation.

D. They teach that indulgences can make people perfect.
