Dopamine is involved in movement, coordination and feelings of pleasure and reward. It signals rewards or promises of rewards.
Serotonin is associated with feelings of happiness and calmness. It also affects digestion, metabolism and sleep.
The Renaissance
The Renaissance is the period in European history (covering the 15th and 16th centuries) marking the transition from the Middle Ages to Modernity. It is characterised by an attempt to revive and surpass ideas of classical antiquity. Originating in Florence, Italy the Renaissance was characterised by a version of humanism derived from Roman humanists and the rediscovery of classical Greek philosophy such as Protagoras who said that ‘man is the measure of all things‘. This manifested in science (observation and inductive reasoning), art (oil painting), politics (diplomacy), culture, architectural perspective and modern systems of banking and accounting.
