William of Baskerville is sent to a monastery in 1327 to mediate between the Pope's delegation and Michael of Cesena and also investigate the mysterious deaths of several monks. During his investigation, William discovers that the deaths were linked to a rare copy of Aristotle's Poetics that was being kept in the monastery's library. Possession of the forbidden book led some monks to kill themselves or others in order to examine or retrieve it, culminating in the accidental burning down of the library and monastery.

Middle Ages
The Middle Ages saw the decline of the Western Roman Empire and rise of new powers in Europe. The Early Middle Ages, also called the Dark Ages, saw barbarian tribes migrate into Europe and establish new kingdoms. The Byzantine Empire continued in the East with Constantinople as its capital. The Catholic Church grew in influence and established monastic communities. Charlemagne united much of Western Europe under the Holy Roman Empire in the 8th century. New social classes like serfs and feudal systems of government developed during this period.
Science and technology of ancient civilizations
1. Egypt is among the oldest civilizations, located in North Africa along the Nile River. Early settlements began around 5500 BCE as nomadic groups sought water and began farming.
2. The Egyptians had advanced knowledge in astronomy, using instruments to accurately align structures like the Great Pyramids. They also had a 365 day calendar system divided into three seasons.
3. Alexandria was founded in 331 BCE by Alexander the Great and grew to be a major center of learning and science, attracting scholars from across the Mediterranean. It declined after the rise of Christianity and wars between Christian Byzantines and Muslim Arabs.
Unit 15
This document provides an overview of science in the ancient world and middle ages. It describes the important early civilizations that appeared including Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, and Rome. Life during the middle ages is characterized by Germanic invasions, the rise of feudalism, and people abandoning cities to settle as serfs in the countryside until cities began growing again in the 13th century. Vocabulary terms related to civilization, laws, political systems, and social hierarchies of the time are also defined.
Middle age -STS
The document summarizes science and technology in medieval China from early civilization through the 12th century AD. Key developments include: papermaking, printing, gunpowder, the compass, advanced mathematics and astronomy, hydraulic engineering, inoculation, and early applications of physics concepts like yin and yang. Chinese innovations like paper, printing, gunpowder, the compass, and stern-post rudder later spread to influence Europe.
Literature, music and science in the Renaissance
This document discusses several key developments during the Renaissance period. It notes that before the Renaissance, most books were written in Latin which few people could read, but writers then began composing in their native languages. It mentions Shakespeare as a famous English playwright who opened the Globe Theatre and mentions developments in music like the invention of new instruments. Finally, it discusses advances in medicine during this time including the banning of dissections but Andreas Vesalius pioneering their use and Galileo's contributions to science like discovering Jupiter and supporting Copernicus' model of the solar system.
The scientific revolution 1500 to 1700
The document discusses the Scientific Revolution that occurred between 1500-1700 CE. It overthrew ancient philosophies of Aristotle and Ptolemy that had dominated scientific thought. Key figures like Copernicus, Brahe, Kepler, and Galileo advanced theories of a heliocentric solar system through observations and mathematics. Their work challenged the authority of the Catholic Church and ancient ideas, ushering in changes in fields like astronomy, physics, and chemistry. The Scientific Revolution established scientific principles and methodology that remain influential today.
Ancient technology in world history
Ancient civilizations like Egypt, China, Greece, and India made important contributions to early technology and engineering. The Egyptians built ramps and extracted gold through mining to help construct large buildings. India developed city planning technologies like sewage systems and granaries. China invented matches, paper, the compass, and gunpowder. The Greeks invented early machines like steam engines and analog computers as well as architectural advances using geometry. Overall, ancient societies advanced tools and technologies from the Stone Age through Bronze and Iron Ages, improving quality of life.

The Renaissance Period began in 1485 in England with the crowning of Henry Tudor as King Henry VII, marking the beginning of the Tudor dynasty. This era saw a renewed interest in classical antiquity and humanism. Henry VIII broke from the Catholic Church after the Pope refused to annul his marriage, establishing the Church of England with himself as its head. His daughter Elizabeth I was one of England's greatest rulers, restoring stability during her reign and defeating the Spanish Armada.
The Middle Ages introduction and overview
The Middle Ages were the period in European history between 500-1500 AD. It began with the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD. Key events in the Early Middle Ages included the rise of Islam and barbarian kingdoms, as well as the rule of Charlemagne. Europe faced invasions from Vikings, Muslims, and Magyars in the 800s-900s, leading to the rise of feudalism and knights. The High Middle Ages saw increased stability, growth of towns/cities, Crusades, and the establishment of kingdoms like England and universities.
Deductive and inductive method of teching
The document discusses different approaches to teaching - deductive and inductive. The deductive approach involves the teacher directly presenting information to students, while the inductive approach involves the teacher presenting many examples for students to observe patterns and concepts from. Some key differences are noted: the deductive approach is more predictable but the inductive approach tends to lead to deeper understanding and retention. The document also asks questions about personalizing learning, predictability of lessons, desired depth of understanding, and time available to consider which approach may be better suited for a given situation.
Different approaches and methods
The document discusses different teaching approaches and methods. It begins by distinguishing between direct/expository approaches that have high teacher direction and guided/exploratory approaches with high student participation. It then defines key concepts like approach and method. The main types covered are direct/expository methods like deductive and demonstrative, as well as guided/exploratory methods like inductive. Characteristics, examples and advantages/disadvantages of each method are provided. The document aims to help teachers understand different instructional strategies and how to apply them based on learning objectives and content.
Interactive Teaching Strategies
This document discusses interactive teaching strategies to engage learners of all styles. It identifies the main learning styles as visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. Interactive teaching involves both the facilitator and learners, with questions and hands-on activities to stimulate discussion. Group work is highlighted as an effective strategy, as learners retain more when they discuss and apply the material. A variety of interactive techniques should be used to maintain interest, assess understanding, and make the session participatory.
Effective teaching strategies
This document discusses effective teaching strategies for training adult learners. It recommends applying principles of adult learning theory, which recognizes that adults learn best when they are actively engaged. Adults are autonomous, goal-oriented, and draw from life experiences. Effective teaching strategies include involving learners, relating topics to their goals and experiences, and showing relevance to their jobs. A variety of active learning methods, such as group activities, games, role-playing and problem-solving, should be used over traditional lecturing to improve retention.
10 mcmh reformation
Martin Luther, a German monk and professor, sparked the Protestant Reformation in 1517 by nailing his 95 Theses criticizing Catholic Church practices like indulgences to a church door. When reforms did not come and Luther was excommunicated, religious dissent and wars erupted across Europe for over 200 years. The Reformation challenged Catholic Church authority and asserted individual conscience, laying the foundation for modern individualism. It resulted in new Protestant denominations like Lutheran and Calvinist churches and permanently established Protestantism in Europe, though only after decades of violent rebellion and war.

This document outlines the course plan for a history course titled "Main Currents of Modern History". It provides an introduction to the course objectives of providing an overview of major events from the 12th-20th century and acquainting students with aspects of historiography. The course will rely on specified readings rather than an outdated textbook. The plan lists 13 units that will be covered over 40 classes, including topics like the Renaissance, Reformation, Scientific Revolution, and modern economic history. Student assessment will include quizzes, assignments, and exams.
2 mcmh eh.carr
This document discusses E.H. Carr's views on historiography and the nature of historical facts. It makes three key points:
1) Carr believed that historians are necessarily selective in what facts they regard as important to history and how those facts are presented, so history involves interpretation not just facts.
2) What counts as a "historical fact" depends on the beliefs and perspectives of the historian regarding what is most relevant and important to history.
3) Historical accounts are shaped by the preconceptions and selection of evidence by those who provided the original documents, so they do not objectively speak for themselves but require the historian's analysis and judgment.
