Why is italienne not capitalized in the phrase "de la Renaissance italienne?" Also, why is the article "le" not used in the first mention "de Florence en Italie", but is used in "ses carnets duvoyage sure l'Italie" ? Has "medicine" gone out of usage for the designation of medical doctor and has "docteur" supplanted it? "Docteur" is applicable to non-physicians (e.g., those with PhD's) and is there another designation for them? Thanks.
Hello, in the first example mentioned
"I saw magnificent places"

J’adore cet exercise parce qu’il m’a fait découvrir un film vraiment amusant, et à une réalisatrice très interessante. En fait, j'ai pris du temps sur les exercices de grammaire pour regarder le film et je pense que je vais le revoir. Je veux en parler avec mon tuteur en Tunisie demain. Merci pour cela. Contenu vraiment super !
I know that depuis can be used with the passé composé in the negative sentence but can it also be used with the affirmative?
How would you translate a sentence like:
I have seen him once since last week or They have visited their grandmother twice since last week.
When I translated them into Google and other translation sites they both use the affirmative passé composé with depuis, which I didn't think you were meant to do.
