In the 4th century, the Roman Empire was divided into a Western part ruled from Rome and an Eastern part ruled from Constantinople. Whereas Diocletian persecuted Christians, Constantine ended persecution in 313 with the Edict of Milan, paving the way for Christianity to become the official state religion by 380.

Beginning in the 1000s, a spiritual revival spread across Europe and led to reforms in the Catholic Church. Monasteries like Cluny adopted stricter rules, and popes began reforms to end practices like simony and priest marriage. These reforms strengthened the Church and increased the Pope's power. New preaching orders like the Franciscans, founded by St. Francis of Assisi, helped spread the Church's message.

The Great Schism began as a power struggle between Pope Boniface VIII and King Philip IV of France over taxation of the church. This led to the papacy being moved to Avignon, France, outraging other Christian groups. Eventually, there were two popes, one in Rome and one in Avignon, dividing Western Christianity until the Council of Constance in 1417 ended the Schism by electing Martin V as the sole pope. Key figures like John Wycliffe and Jan Hus challenged the authority and actions of the divided papacy during this time period.
Early Christian art and architecture began between the 2nd and 3rd centuries AD and lasted until around 350-525 AD. It originated in Rome and Byzantium. Common architectural styles included basilicas, which resembled Roman civic buildings, and were suitable for churches. They had a central nave flanked by aisles and an apse. Famous early examples included Old St. Peter's Basilica and the Church of the Nativity. Early Christian art avoided depicting Jesus or biblical scenes, instead using symbols like loaves of bread to represent the Eucharist.

EARLY CHRISTIAN ARCHITECTURE_HISTORY OF ARCHITECTURE 1.pptx.pdfEloisaGonda
Early Christian architecture was influenced by existing Roman styles, using materials and architectural features from older Roman buildings. Common structures included basilican churches with naves, side aisles, and apses, as well as separate baptistries. Some key early examples are the Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls, Santa Maria Maggiore, and Santa Sabina in Rome. Tombs and catacombs provided underground burial spaces for Christians.
Romanesque architecture-1211064988506677-8Rb Villanueva
Romanesque architecture first developed in Europe during the Middle Ages as a style that spanned the continent. It expanded due to factors like the growth of pilgrimages, especially along routes to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. There were three main typologies: churches, monasteries, and castles. Churches were designed to advertise the Catholic Church and were usually built with stone in a Latin cross or basilical plan with thick walls, buttresses, and vaulted ceilings. Monasteries were designed as self-contained communities and included buildings like churches, cloisters, chapter houses, and dwellings for monks. Castles served defensive purposes and were typically built in defensible locations with reinforced walls.
The Middle Ages began after the fall of the Roman Empire in the 5th century due to invasions from Germanic tribes. One such tribe, the Visigoths, established a powerful kingdom in the Iberian Peninsula with its capital in Toledo. However, in 711 AD Muslim invaders from North Africa conquered most of the Iberian Peninsula, establishing the territory of Al-Andalus with its capital in Cordoba. Over the following centuries, Christian kingdoms reconquered territory in a process known as the Reconquest, which was completed in 1492 with the fall of Granada.
The Early Christian Architecture started in Rome and Constantinople in the 3rd century AD. From these two locations, Early Christian architectural styles spread across Europe and Asia. Early churches were typically simple basilica structures adapted from Roman designs. The basilica floor plan, with a central nave and side aisles separated by columns, provided the space needed for Christian worship ceremonies and processions. Examples like Old St. Peter's Basilica in Rome demonstrate how this classical architectural form was appropriated for early Christian churches.
Early Christian/ Early Jewish Art PowerPointsmolinskiel
Early Christian and Jewish art from 200-500 CE was influenced by classical Roman styles but adapted to new religious needs. Early Christian art was created secretly in catacombs and featured narratives from the Bible influenced by Roman imperial styles. As Christianity became the official religion, churches incorporated Roman basilica and central plans, and mosaics and frescoes depicted Christ as triumphant. Early Jewish art, like the Dura Europos synagogue paintings, showed limited biblical narratives in stylized fashions unlike realistic Roman styles due to prohibitions on images.
The Santiago de Compostela Cathedral is located in Galicia, Spain and marks the end of the famous Camino de Santiago pilgrimage route. Construction began in 1075 and continued throughout the 12th century. The cathedral has a barrel-vaulted interior and houses the relics of St. James, as the crypt was the final destination for pilgrims. Notable features include the Botafumeiro censer, sculptures on the façade depicting the apostles and prophets, and two bell towers dating back to the 12th century.

Carolingian art flourished during the rule of Charlemagne and his successors in the late 8th and 9th centuries. Charlemagne revived classical Roman forms and commissioned lavish manuscripts and architecture to establish himself as the head of a renewed Christian Roman Empire based in Aachen. Manuscripts like the Coronation Gospels and Ebbo Gospels featured illustrations inspired by both classical Roman and contemporary Byzantine styles. Church architecture like the Palatine Chapel in Aachen and the St. Gall Plan incorporated Roman elements like columns and basilican layouts. Under the Ottonian dynasty in the 10th century, artistic traditions continued as seen in buildings like the churches of Gernrode and St
The document summarizes key aspects of late medieval scholasticism, the Crusades, Gothic architecture, and French Gothic architecture. Scholasticism emphasized rigorous dialectical methods and conceptual analysis. Major scholastic thinkers included Anselm, Abelard, Aquinas. The Crusades were a series of wars launched by European Christians against Muslims to control holy sites like Jerusalem. Gothic architecture featured pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and flying buttresses, emphasizing verticality and light. French Gothic styles progressed from Early Gothic to Rayonnant and Flamboyant styles over centuries of cathedral construction.
Constantine the Great was the first Roman emperor to become Christian. He enforced correct Christian practice and after his death in 337, Byzantium was renamed Constantinople. Five special bishops had authority over church leaders, including the bishops of Rome, Alexandria, Antioch, Constantinople, and Jerusalem, and they argued over who was most powerful. The Christian church eventually split into the East and West branches.
The document provides an overview of various works of art from early Christian art to Gothic art.

Finally, it outlines Romanesque artworks focusing on portals and sculpture, and Gothic developments in architecture like rib vaults and rose windows.
The church played a central role in medieval Europe. It was the most important institution, providing religious and social leadership during unstable times. The clergy owned a third of European land, making the church the largest landholder. The church also collected tithes and was generally responsible for record keeping. There were often power struggles between the Pope and kings. The church taught that receiving the seven sacraments was essential for salvation. Christians also expressed their faith through pilgrimages, art/architecture like cathedrals, and monastic life devoted to religion.
The document provides an overview of architecture from the Early Christian period through the Gothic era. It begins by discussing how the Roman Empire split into eastern and western halves in 400 CE. Christianity had become the dominant religion. As new rulers came to power, architectural styles evolved from Early Christian to Byzantine under Constantine, and then to Romanesque. Key events and developments discussed include Constantine moving the capital to Constantinople in 330 CE and constructing Hagia Sophia, the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 410 CE, and the emergence of Gothic architecture in the late medieval period. Stylistic elements of Early Christian, Byzantine, and Romanesque architecture like semicircular arches, vaulting techniques, and basilica
This document summarizes the history and development of early Christian architecture from its origins in the eastern Roman Empire in the 1st-3rd centuries AD. It notes that Christianity was officially recognized in the Roman Empire in 326 AD and replaced paganism. Early Christian buildings were modest and served spiritual and burial needs. Notable early examples included house churches called tituli and underground burial places called catacombs.

The nave is the central area for worshippers, aisles run along sides, and the transepts form a cross shape. The apse is a semicircular recess near the altar. It also provides examples of early Christian basilican churches like St. Peter's in Rome and the Church of Nativity in Bethlehem.
The document provides an overview of society, economy, politics, and art during the Baroque period in Europe (17th-18th centuries). It summarizes that absolute monarchy was dominant, society was organized into estates, and the economy grew through increased manufacturing and trade routes. The dominant artistic style of the Baroque period was characterized by movement, contrasts of light and shadow, and grand architectural works from artists like Bernini.
The Habsburg dynasty ruled Spain for over two centuries through marriage alliances. They held vast European lands but faced numerous challenges. Key rulers included Charles I who focused on his German lands, leading to Spanish revolts. Philip II solidified central control but faced issues with the Dutch Revolt, the Spanish Armada defeat, and the Alpujarras Morisco Revolt. By the 17th century, later Habsburg kings neglected governance and faced economic troubles and succession disputes, ending Habsburg rule in Spain and beginning the Bourbon dynasty under Philip V after the War of the Spanish Succession.
The Habsburg dynasty ruled Spain for over two centuries through a series of kings. They came to power after Juana of Castile married Philip of Habsburg. Their grandson Charles I became king of Spain. Under Charles I and his successor Philip II, the Habsburg Empire expanded greatly across Europe and the Americas but faced numerous revolts within Spain. By the 17th century under later kings, the empire was in decline due to mismanagement and overextension, culminating in the War of Spanish Succession after the childless death of Charles II in 1700.
The cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence began construction in 1296 under Arnolfo di Cambio, on the site of an ancient cathedral. Construction continued in phases over centuries, with the central nave completed in 1378, the sides in 1380, and the transept and drum built between 1380-1421. Filippo Brunelleschi finally crowned the cathedral with his iconic dome in 1434. The cathedral blends Romanesque and Gothic elements, with the octagonal dome representing Renaissance art.
Isabel I of Castile was born in 1451 in Madrigal de las Altas Torres, Spain. She married Ferdinand II of Aragon in 1469, though they needed a papal dispensation due to their status as second cousins. The pope initially refused to grant the dispensation, but issued the Bull of Simancas in 1471 that legitimized their marriage. Isabel was queen of Castile from 1474 until her death in 1504, and also queen consort of Sicily and Aragon through her marriage to Ferdinand. They had four daughters and one son together.
This document provides information on several topics from the Renaissance period:
Humanism promoted using reason to understand reality and emphasized humans as the center of the universe. The Renaissance began in 15th century Italy and saw a revival of classical Greek and Roman art and culture. The Protestant Reformation began as a reaction against corruption in the Catholic Church in the 16th century. Key figures like Martin Luther and John Calvin established new Christian denominations like Lutheranism and Calvinism. The Counter-Reformation was the Catholic Church's internal reform movement and establishment of doctrines in response to the Protestant Reformation.
The document also summarizes Renaissance art styles like the early 15th century Florentine style and the 16th century Roman High
The document provides a summary of the history of the Church of Cabanillas. It describes how the church was initially built in the late 16th century with three naves and smaller chapels. Over the next two centuries, the church underwent several reforms, including widening the walls, rebuilding the tower after it was struck by lightning, adding bells, and constructing the main chapel in 1676. Throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, continuous work was needed to repair the church. The most recent renovations started in 1994 and 2008 to repair the roof, tower, interior paintings, electricity, and flooring, with work still ongoing 10 years later.
Feudalism developed in Western Europe between the 9th and 10th centuries as kings struggled to collect taxes, protect their populations, and maintain armies against invaders. To gain military support, kings granted land and power to nobles in exchange for loyalty, advising, and private armies. Nobles became feudal lords ruling large fiefs. Peasants sought protection from nobles in exchange for working and farming the fiefs, receiving safety and a share of crops. This system of vassalage between kings, lords, and peasants defined the political, economic, and social structure of feudal Europe for several centuries.
The black plague, the most deadly epidemicMarino MM-G
The document summarizes key details about the black plague, one of the deadliest pandemics in history. It was caused by the bacterium Yersinia Pestis and primarily spread by fleas living on rodents. The plague arrived in Europe in the 14th century from Asia and ultimately killed around 50 million people on that continent. The disease came in three main varieties: bubonic, pneumonic, and septicemic, with septicemic being the most lethal form for those infected. Early symptoms included high fever, nausea, vomiting and fatigue.
Maps about the expansion of Islam and the Al Andalus´s evolution in the Iberian Peninsula. Also, some images from Alhambra and the Great Mosque of Cordoba.
There are approximately 1.6 billion Muslims worldwide, comprising 23.5% of the global population. Islam is the official religion in countries across Northern Africa, the Middle East, the Arabian Peninsula, Indonesia, the Balkans region, and parts of North and East Asia and Central Africa. In recent decades, immigration has brought over 1 million Muslims to Spain, the majority from Morocco but also from other neighboring African countries and some parts of Asia. Most Muslims in Spain are Sunni, though some are Shiite. The first mosque built in modern Spain after the Reconquista was constructed in 1982, around 500 years after the fall of Granada in 1492.
Part 2 unit 0. byzantine empire and artMarino MM-G
The Byzantine Empire lasted from the fall of the Western Roman Empire until 1453. Its capital was Constantinople and it preserved Roman heritage and resisted invaders for 1000 years. The most important emperor was Justinian who ruled from 527 to 565 CE and sought to restore the Roman Empire. His armies conquered Northern Africa, Italy, and parts of Spain from other powers. Byzantine art is exemplified by Hagia Sophia, a church in Constantinople decorated with mosaics built on Justinian's orders in the 6th century with its central dome and arched windows. Visigothic art included small churches built of masonry featuring horseshoe arches, vaults, and relief decorations on

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

respect monastic rules.
5. 5. THE CRUSADES
The crusades were a series of holy wars
between European Christians and
Muslims in the Middle East that took place
from the 11th to 12th centuries.
The aim of these wars was to reclaim the
holy lands for Christians, such as
Jerusalem, which was controlled by the
Turks.
