Sir, intellectuals during renaissance were talking about going back to the ancient past, and at the same time were discussing the ideas of individualism, rationalism etc. Do you find some kind of inconsistency in their thought process

Very very good lecture but only one suggestion,make it more exam oriented not interested in stories ,only in possible questions ,pyqs

[@vLoneXThuG]

Sir explicitly mentioned this and the later lecture after this is not important for exam but is important to provide background for things further which are important for exam such as Enlightenment, which I reckon the first lecture on enlightenment is already published on channel
