The Study of Antiquity and the Middle Ages - Podcast autorstwa Nick Barksdale
Kategorie:
In this episode the superb scholars Dr. Amy Kaufman and Dr. Paul Sturtevant quickly walk us through the myth of the Dark Ages created by Late Medieval Humanists in the height of the Italian Renaissance who hated the idea of the Early Middle Ages. We talk about a variety of viewpoints and inaccurate ideas and images of the medieval world and how there was more of a continuity from the Roman Empire and the Medieval World into the Renaissance. We also talk about the contributions of great Islamic Medieval Civilizations that are oftentimes overlooked or ignored.
