What were the Middle Ages?
500-1500 A.D.- Began after the fall of Rome
No central power or government during the time
Named the “Middle Ages” because it was the middle time in between the Roman Empire and Renaissance
Life was difficult because of poverty, and most of the population was impoverished
The closest thing to a form of government was manorialism, or rule over peasants by a lord (FEUDALISM!)
Faith in the Middle Ages-The Catholic Church
Imposed taxes and had its own land and laws
Accepted gifts and donations: that was how people got into Heaven
Excommunicated (banned from the church) non-believers
Started to translate the Bible – This led to want for education and knowledge
This thirst for intelligence also influenced literature
The pope was infallible (incapable of error) and had power over all religious and political matters
The priests drank, gambled, and kept mistresses
Background on Islamic Religion
Practiced in mainly Spain, Middle East, and North Africa
There was little contact between Christians and Muslims
Islam was founded by Muhammad in the 7th century
It is a monotheistic religion based off the teachings of the Quran and the 5 Pillars of Islam
Islam During the Middle Ages
Almost all of the people of Spain were Muslim, but the rest of Europe was Christian
Both Christians and Muslims viewed the other badly, and they did not often encounter each other
Despite the cultural divide, Muslims added to the knowledge in science and technology
Islamic scribes translated Roman and Greek texts, contributing to the want for knowledge
Background on Knights
Duty: to learn how to fight and serve their Lord
Expected to guard the castle and support his lord in Middle Age warfare
Must train as a page, then a squire before becoming a knight
Trained for many years
They practiced their skills in tournaments of jousting
At the end of Knighthood ceremony, they would take the title of SIR
Chivalry was the knightly system of the Middle Ages
The chivalric orders were first used against non-Christian states
It was a moral system that introduced ideal qualities such as bravery, courtesy, honor, and gallantry toward women
Ideas of chivalry were written in poems, BALLADS/MADRIGALS, writings, and literary works
Myths such as Camelot and the Knights of the Round Table show the medieval code of chivalry
Chivalry-The Knight’s Code
Chivalry was used for knights in combat and in overall life
When knights were sworn in, they had to agree to the code
The Knights’ Code of Chivalry emphasized things like faith, justice, temperance, truth, hope, valor
The Knights’ Code was also related to defending God, showing the lack of separation between church and state
Literature flourished during the middle ages!
There was a lack of paper, so calf’s skin and parchment were typical
The books and illustrations were done by hand by monks
Romance novels and epic battles were written and described along with fiction and poetry
The spread of literature was also influenced by troubadours
A troubadour was a traveling musician
They spread news and entertained nobles
The stories they sung were about chivalry and romance, or battles and recent news
Troubadours assisted in the spread of literature, except instead of written stories they were spoken, then later on written down
Jongleurs were assistants to the troubadours
They juggled, danced, and did acrobatics along with the singing and instrument playing
They also performed acts of stupidity which eventually led to jesters
The man on the left is the jongleur because he is acting oddly with additional flutes in his mouth
