HIGH MIDDLE AGES

High Middle Ages th-13th centuries: Paris--was the midwife and capital of the Gothic period Comparisons between the Romanesque and Gothic periods –feudal vs. urbanization –laborers vs. thinkers –pyramid vs. middle class –dark vs. bright –static vs. intellectual new life Gothic style created national styles 80 cathedrals, 2700 churches in Ile de France region. Universities: Oxford, Salamanca, Bologna, Paris started out as guilds Chivalry

Gothic style’s father was Suger’s (SUE jay) remodeling of Saint Denis in Paris Charlemagne’s name tied to the abbey created a new shrine Civic pride, verticality to go Godward, teaching thru windows-- the Bible for the poor Suger was influenced by Hagia Sophia ca. 532 (184 ft.) and Temple of Solomon. Chartres (122 ft.) ,000 square feet of stained glass Amiens (144 ft.) 1220 Reims Gabled portal Sainte-Chapelle highest ratio of glass to wall Beauvais (157 ft.) 1247

Ile-de-France—the cathedral served as the Super K-Mart for the society. In addition, it was a real commercial asset to community by attracting pilgrims and fairs. Sport of bear bating Urban life forced society to change and created a need for various administrators and educated workforce. In addition, rediscovery of Greek/Roman writings from the Muslim world. Scholasticism application of logic to resolve conflicts in faith and life.

St. Francis of Assisi born in had a Buddha- like experience during a local war. Little Brothers wandered Europe begging and preaching, literalistic understanding of the Bible. Stigmata experience St. Thomas Aquinas— attempted to apply logic to resolving the questions of faith and reason. Dante and the Divine Comedy—symbolic pilgrimage from hell to eternity in heaven starting on Good Friday 1300—Vergil and Beatrice lead Dante on this journey.

The Gothic period was a chaotic time It was the labor pain transition for the rebirth or Renaissance. The components of this troublesome age were— –The Black Death—the bubonic plague started resulting in the deaths of 1/3 to 2/3 of many cities of Europe. Boccaccio wrote Decameron. Meltdown of social order and services. Hysteria and superstition ran rampant throughout Europe. Scapegoats were Jews, gypsies, etc. –The great Schism ( )—was a foretaste of the coming Reformation. The 1300s began with a year of jubilee in Rome called by Boniface VIII. Philip, the Fair of France, brought Boniface to his knees a handful of years later and died as a result the French force the Vatican to move north to Avignon and the Babylonian Captivity, which lasted approximately 70 years. Corruption of the church and government causes numerous peasant revolts (Robin Hood was during this period). –The Hundred Years’ War ( )—between France and England resulting in horrible loss of life.
