Download or read book Church and People in the Medieval West, 900-1200 written by Sarah Hamilton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-08-12 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the middle ages, belief in God was the single more important principle for every person, and the all-powerful church was the most important institution. It is impossible to understand the medieval world without understanding the religious vision of the time, and this new textbook offers an approach which explores the meaning of this in day-to-day life, as well as the theory behind it. Church and People in the Medieval West gets to the root of belief in the Middle Ages, covering topics including pastoral reform, popular religion, monasticism, heresy and much more, throughout the central middle ages from 900-1200. Suitable for undergraduate courses in medieval history, and those returning to or approaching the subject for the first time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning in 500 with the fusion of classical, Christian, and Germanic cultures and ending in 1300 with a Europe united by a desire for growth, knowledge, and change, this volume provides basic information on the significant cultural figures of the Middle Ages. It includes over 400 people whose contributions in literature, religion, philosophy, education, or politics influenced the development and culture of the Medieval world. While focusing on Western European figures, the book does not neglect those from Byzantium, Baghdad, and the Arab world who also contributed to the politics, religion, and culture of Western Europe. Europe underwent fundamental changes during the Middle Ages. It changed from a preliterate to a literate society. Cities became a vital part of the economy, culture, and social structure. The poor and serfs went to the cities. The devout joined monastic orders. Christianity spread throughout Europe, while a man was born in Mecca who would change the shape of the religious map. Islam spread throughout the Holy Land. Christian piety led to the Crusades. This book provides a convenient guide to those who helped shape these movements and counter-movements during this era that would pave the way for the Renaissance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In building their profession around carefully selected interpretations of the work of Adam Smith, Alfred Marshall and others, mainstream economists have embraced such concepts as "the invisible hand," "equilibrium," "consumer rationality," "the marginal productivity theory," "the inevitability of diminishing returns," and the fiction of "pure competition." In contrast, "the evolutionary economics" of Thorstein Veblen and Clarence Ayres challenges all of these concept as unproven and capable of telling us little or nothing about the actual operation of the economy. Using the evolutionary framework, Human Progress Amid Resistance to Change argues that all cultures since prehistory have faced two opposing forces: technology, including human knowledge, and institutions rooted in ceremonialism. The former is dynamic, forward looking, accepting of change, cumulative (one discovery builds on another), and the major cause of human progress. The latter is static and consists of all customs, traditions, superstitions, rituals, ceremonies, taboos, and past binding religious beliefs that resist change. The book illustrates in detail how these competing forces have interacted throughout the history of the human race and how mainstream economics fails to grasp the significance of their combined effects.

Download or read book The Making of Medieval Rome written by Hendrik Dey and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-10-14 with total page 956 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrating the written sources with Rome's surviving remains and, most importantly, with the results of the past half-century's worth of medieval archaeology in the city, The Making of Medieval Rome is the first in-depth profile of Rome's transformation over a millennium to appear in any language in over forty years. Though the main focus rests on Rome's urban trajectory in topographical, architectural, and archaeological terms, Hendrik folds aspects of ecclesiastical, political, social, military, economic, and intellectual history into the narrative in order to illustrate how and why the cityscape evolved as it did during the thousand years between the end of the Roman Empire and the start of the Renaissance. A wide-ranging synthesis of decades' worth of specialized research and remarkable archaeological discoveries, this book is essential reading for anyone interested in how and why the ancient imperial capital transformed into the spiritual heart of Western Christendom.

Book excerpt: Although often held in contempt, dismissed with obloquy, or simply ignored, cannot the Middle Ages be regarded as more than the traditional delayer of the Renaissance and the Reformation? John Morrall, while not denying the essential differences between that age and ours, shows that the dichotomy between medieval and modern is not so self-evident. Tracing the rise, development and the eventual decline of the medieval period, the author illustrates how the attempt to implement ideals of human relationships through socially viable institutions was as strong in the days of early Christianity as it is today. He analyses the roles played by the Church, feudalism, universities, guilds and communes, and particularly by the political parties, in protecting the personalist ideal. However, by the fifteenth century, failure to preserve the ideal provoked wide-scale disillusionment with these institutions, and the eventual collapse of medieval society. The same problem of reconciling the 'individual' with the 'community' faces us today. A sympathetic understanding of medieval man's tragedy could well prove an invaluable lesson to us. -- from book cover.
