Why does William Manchester think that Ferdinand Magellan was the first Real Renaissance Man?
In William Manchester's book a world lit only by fire he goes into great depths about ferdinand magellan why does he believe tht Ferdinand Magellan was the First Real Renaissance Man?
That's his opinion. You have a different view, write a book about it if you think you can prove your thesis!
Someone here asked who the top 5 people were in the last 1,000 years and I thought only of technology people. I could give a rat's asss about Waldon, Newton and Einstein were more important to today.
Magellian made a round world out of a flat world and discovered so many new things it was rediculous.
He deserves a bow. Was he the first!? You tell me. Write a book about someone better that came before him!
