Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-The "Middle Ages" is a historical periodization that traditionally refers to the Middle Ages and states that there was a demographic, cultural and economic deterioration in Western Europe after the decline of the Roman Empire. The term uses traditional images of light versus darkness to contrast the "darkness" (lack of records) of the era with earlier and later periods of "light" (abundance of records). The concept of a "Dark Age" originated in the 1330s with the Italian scholar Petrarca, who considered the post-Roman centuries as "dark" compared to the light of classical antiquity. The phrase "Dark Age" is derived from the Latin saeculum obscurum, originally applied by César Baronio in 1602 to a tumultuous period in the 10th and 11th centuries.The concept came to characterize the entire Middle Ages as a time of intellectual darkness between the fall of Rome and the Renaissance; This became especially popular during the Age of Enlightenment of the 18th century. As the achievements of the era were better understood in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, academics began to restrict the denomination of the "Middle Ages" to the High Middle Ages (c. 5th-10th century), and now academics also They reject its use in this period.

Although Rome may have fallen the Eastern Empire, centered at Constantinople, continued to thrive, in many ways continuing what the Roman Empire had always done since the days of Augustus, but also developing new judicial systems to govern its vast lands as well as encouraging new forms of art and architecture.Even in the power vacuum that was left after 476 A.D. Western Europe did not descend completely into darkness, instead in the wake of Rome's collapse many new powerful empires emerged that looked to Rome for support, most notably the Frankish Empire under Charlemagne.Oman through the course of this incredibly detailed work uncovers fascinatingly vibrant figures from Theodoric the Great, who dominated Italy in the early sixth century, to Charles Martel, who halted the Islamic advance at the battle of Tours, thus demonstrating through the conflict of this period the foundations of modern Europe were laid.Charles Oman was a British historian.

*Includes pictures *Includes excerpts of ancient accounts When people think of ancient Greece, images of philosophers such as Plato or Socrates often come to mind, as do great warriors like Pericles and Alexander the Great, but hundreds of years before Athens became a city, a Greek culture flourished and spread its tentacles throughout the western Mediterranean region via trade and warfare. Scholars have termed this pre-Classical Greek culture the Mycenaean culture, which existed from about 2000-1200 BCE, when Greece, along with much of the eastern Mediterranean, was thrust into a centuries long Dark Ages. Before the Mycenaean culture collapsed, it was a vital part of the late Bronze Age Mediterranean system and stood on equal footing with some of the great powers of the region, such as the Egyptians and Hittites. The Greek Dark Ages, sometimes referred to as the Homeric Age or the Geometric Period, spans the era of Greek history from the end of the Mycenaean civilization around 1100 BCE and the emergence of the Greek poleis in the 9th century BCE. It is an era that has provided little in terms of extant archaeological evidence, which in part explains the name "Dark Ages," but this lack of evidence has led some archaeologists and historians to make the very great assumption that little of any real significance occurred during these 200 years. Instead, they view it as a sort of hiatus between the collapse of the Mycenaean culture and the emergence of Archaic Greece. As with other so-called "Dark Ages," this assessment is simplified, and an absence of evidence should never be assumed as evidence of absence. If anything, the collapse of the Mycenaeans was a drawn-out affair, and while the early centuries of the Dark Ages might beseen as a continuation of this trend, even in the worst years, there was a degree of continuity and even some innovations. These changes including the beginnings of the use of iron as an alternative to bronze and some religious practices that continued to be observed. Furthermore, enough remained to form the basis of a recovery in economic, cultural, and artistic aspects of life in the later stage of the era, and in the political sphere, changes necessitated by the collapse in the economic system certainly paved the way for the rise of the polis, which would prove so fundamental in Greece in the centuries that followed. The relative success of the Aegean settlements was also crucial to recovery, as well as all major developments in politics, economics, international relations, warfare, and culture that created the structures and framework that developed during the later Classical period (480 BCE.-323 BCE). This laid the groundwork for the Greek Renaissance of the 8th century. During that time, the Greek alphabet developed and the earliest surviving Greek literature was composed, while in terms of art and architecture, sculptures and red-figure pottery began. Warfare changed significantly as well when the hoplite became the core infantry. Put simply, none of these developments could have occurred if the basis for these changes had not been secured during what came to be known as the Greek Renaissance, which bridged the gap between the Dark Ages and Archaic Greece. The Greek Dark Ages and Greek Renaissance: The History and Legacy of the Bronze Age Transition to Archaic Greece examines how ancient Greece developed over the course of over 1,000 years before bringing about the famous city-states. Along with pictures depicting important people, places, and events, you will learn about the Greek Dark Ages and the Greek Renaissance like never before.
