Middle Ages (medium aevum) 1)The Middle Ages matter because the modern western, European world took shape during the Middle Ages; 2)Modern Western European civilization is extremely peculiar, in comparison with other ancient or contemporary civilizations; 3)These peculiarities, which continue to shape our lives today, arose during the Middle Ages for reasons having to do with the particular history of western Europe between 400 and 1648.
