Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Christian humanism emphasized the worth and significance of the individual within the context of Christianity. This movement emphasized the importance of education and encouraged believers to seek knowledge and understanding of their faith. It was a precursor to the Renaissance humanism that emerged in the 14th and 15th centuries. While the Church and the Pope were certainly important in medieval Europe, Christian humanism focused on individual faith and empowerment. Thomas Aquinas, while influential in Christian theology, was not directly tied to the Christian humanism movement.
