For example, the university originated in medieval Europe (the first university was established in 1158 in Bologna, Italy). The period was marked by the belief, based on the Christian faith, that the universe is an ordered world, ruled by an infinite and all-knowing God. This belief persisted even through the turmoil of wars and social upheavals, and it is evident in the soaring Gothic architecture (such as the Cathedral of Chartres, France), the poetry of Dante Alighieri (1265-1321), the philosophy of St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274), the Gregorian chant, and the music of such composers as Guillaume de Machaut (c. 1300-1377).
CHARACTERISTIC OF MODERN ERA
Authors of the mid- to late 20th century were more interested in the modern possibilities of language, style, narrative teniques, etc. than content or social issues (compared to the 19th century). Writers such as Joyce, Beckett, Proust, and Robbe-Grillet changed forever what the reading experience is; "plot", "character", dialogue" all took a back seat to linguistic

    “Loves are like empires: when the idea they are founded upon crumbles, they, too, fade away” - Milan Kundera. Even something as strong as love can crumble, and such was the case with the Roman Empire. The Romans forged a powerful empire that could have been just as strong as the power of love. It all began in 753 BCE when Rome was first founded on the Italian peninsula. The humble village on the palatine grew and grew, until eventually it became a Republic in 509 BCE, “Rome’s rise to power came with the thrust of a spear and the slash of the sword.”(background essay) Yet even in times of war, Rome before the fall was a stable place with a sturdy government. In 31 BCE, the Roman Republic turned to empire with “territory from modern-day Scotland…

    Modern real estate emphasizes the importance of location. As the first civilizations emerged thousands of years ago, the significance of locality was no different. Societies that made the transition from nomadic, hunter-gatherer groups to agricultural communities depended on having an abundance of natural resources to sustain larger, more condensed populations. Citizens of these early civilizations were at the mercy of their surrounding environment, as it was often their main or only source of sustenance.…

    During the Medieval period, European society was divided into three estates. The first estate included the Holy church, and it made up about 5-10% of the population. The second estate was the nobles, knights, and warrior, and they also made up 5-10% of the population. The majority of the population was made up of the commons, the third estate. The only form if government the medieval times had was feudalism. Feudalism is a loose system of government where vassals give their obedience and service in exchange for land and protection. This form of government helped the lesser lords.…

    Fourteenth century Europe could be best described as the “Dark Ages” of Europe. Between 1300 and 1450, Europe experienced series of catastrophic moments from economic difficulties, plague, war to increased crime and violence. The Black Death caused Florence to lost between one half and two-thirds of its 1347 population of 85,000. War also played an important part in Europe’s history. The Hundred Years’ Year (1337-1453) brought social and economic difficulties to both France and England. In France, hundred and thousands of acres of farmland were destroyed turning France into a shamble. Although the war provided unusual opportunities for all social groups, when the war ended knights and nobles went back…

    The legend of Homer, considered by most the greatest epic poets of ancient Greece, stretches beyond classroom conversations and readings in classics classes at Connecticut College. His legend transforms Homer from being a man of words into a man of impact. Words were just the way of delivering this impact to the masses. We see the importance of poetry to the people and culture of Ancient Greece in more places than just the oral readings of The Iliad and The Odyssey. Festivals revolved around the viewing of these long poetic dramas and tragedies. They were one of the many ways in which Greeks would honor gods. Poetry and its rich culture in Ancient Greece is so important because it connected to people to their past. It was very Ancestral in nature. The transformation it makes over some two thousand years brings poetry to its lowest point in history. The impact that Homer made would never be associated with a poet in the 17th – 21st century. Poets such as Walt Whitman, T.S. Eliot, Ezra Pound are considered to be geniuses with their crafts, but geniuses they are only to a few. This degradation of poets has not only destroyed a way to transmit knowledge and culture but has degraded the importance of literature as a whole in the last four centuries.…
