‘Given the potentiality of Man to incline either to base pleasure or towards higher things, it was naturally the latter which presented the Renaissance with their* ideal man,** the hero, formed from the antique mold.*** A hero was not simply ****bold, # strong, ingenious in battle,#* but led a life which reflected the nobility of his soul,#** his high morality, #*** and his wisdom: he was magnanimous#*** in his relations with others, and conducted himself with dignity.## All his actions were founded in reason,##* on the domination of the emotions by the will.##**
