RC Question 14 Explanation, by LSATHacks

DISCUSSION: The main point of the passage is that Renaissance scholarship has a problem: scholars ignore many important Latin works.

___________

1. Which new approaches? There are problems mentioned, but no solutions are offered.
2. Which views? There is only the author’s view: we should study non-literary Renaissance Latin works.
3. Which two views are in dispute? If you can’t name the dispute, you shouldn’t pick this answer choice. (No one is arguing that Renaissance Latin isn’t important)
4. CORRECT. The problem is that there are few scholars who can study technical works written in Latin during the Renaissance. 
5. Which author? And which misconceptions? These are the questions you have to ask yourself. Binns doesn’t criticize anyone in particular.
