Internet History Sourcebooks 1. This project is both very large and fairly old in Internet terms. At the time it was instigated (1996), it was not clear that web sites [and the documents made available there] would often turn out to be transient. As a result there is a process called "link rot" - which means that a "broken link" is a result of someone having taken down a web page. In some cases some websites have simply reorganized sub-directories without creating forwarding links. 2. 3. The Internet Medieval Sourcebook is organized as three main index pages, with a number of supplementary documents. INTRODUCTION: MEDIEVAL SOURCES ON THE INTERNET Historians teaching medieval history surveys almost always want to combine a textbook, a sourcebook, and additional readings. GOAL: The goal here then has been to construct an Internet Medieval Sourcebook from available public domain and copy-permitted texts. DOCUMENT SIZE: The size of documents for teaching purposes is an issue. By pointing students to this web site.

Ten Medieval Inventions that Changed the World Ten Inventions from the Middle Ages that have had lasting importance, even to the present-day. A medieval clock in Prague 1. Timekeeping devices have emerged since the ancient world, but it was not until the Middle Ages that the technology was invented that allowed for mechanical clocks to accurately keep track of time. 2. While printing technology had been developed in 11th century China, it was the 15th century German Johannes Gutenberg and his printing press that started a new era of the mass production of books. 3. Gunpowder was invented in China sometime between the 9th and 11th centuries, and it did not take long it to be used in weapons. 4. While mills were in used from antiquity, it would be in the Early Middle Ages that they became very popular. 5. It did not take long after the drink of coffee emerged in 15th century Arabia that coffee houses became popular in Arabic and Ottoman lands. 6. 7. 8. 9. The first known version of paper money dates back to 7th century China. 10.

Stichting Gebroeders van Limburg Tientallen onderzoekers hebben zich tevergeefs het hoofd gebroken over de vraag waarom er een plattegrond van Rome is opgenomen in de Très Riches Heures en wel precies voor het begin van het lijdensverhaal. De publicist Bert Reesinck kwam onlangs met de oplossing: vanaf de vierde eeuw, toen het christendom in het Romeinse Rijk de staatsgodsdienst werd, nam het aantal christenen enorm toe en verrezen overal in Rome kerken. De paus, bisschop van Rome, wilde het contact met zijn gelovigen behouden. Deze 'plattegrond van Rome' is verre van accuraat. Links onder het maagdelijke sneeuwveldje zien we de Thermen van Diocletianus. Deze geïdealiseerde schildering van de Eeuwige Stad had weinig van doen met de werkelijkheid.
Por qué las ideas religiosas saudíes han sido el terreno más fértil para el terrorismo yihadista William McCants encontró una forma perfecta para definir a Arabia Saudí y su papel para fomentar las corrientes más reaccionarias del islam en todo el planeta de cuyas fuentes han bebido muchos autores de atentados terroristas. "Los saudíes son tanto los pirómanos como los bomberos. Promueven una forma muy tóxica del islam y traza una línea estricta entre un pequeño grupo de auténticos creyentes y todos los demás, musulmanes y no musulmanes", dijo el experto en islamismo radical y autor del libro The ISIS Apocalypse. De entre todas las ideas de los yihadistas, esa es una de las más comunes y de las más dañinas, como pueden corroborar las mayores víctimas de sus atentados, todos ellos en países musulmanes de Oriente Medio. McCants afirma que los saudíes son también "bomberos" en la lucha contra ISIS y Al Qaeda. Los países occidentales creen que necesitan la colaboración de los servicios de inteligencia de Arabia Saudí para derrotar a los yihadistas. No es sólo una cuestión de dinero.
Primary History - Famous People - Henry VIII Comparative Adjectives When we talk about two things, we can "compare" them. We can see if they are the same or different. Perhaps they are the same in some ways and different in other ways. We can use comparative adjectives to describe the differences. We use comparative adjectives when talking about two things (not three or more things). In the example below, "bigger" is the comparative form of the adjective "big": A1 A2A1 is bigger than A2. Formation of Comparative Adjectives There are two ways to make or to "form" a comparative adjective: short adjectives: add "-er"long adjectives: use "more" With some 2-syllable adjectives, we can use "-er" OR "more": quiet → quieter/more quiet clever → cleverer/more clever narrow → narrower/more narrow simple → simpler/more simple Exception: The following adjectives have irregular forms: good → better well (healthy) → better bad → worse far → farther/further Use of Comparative Adjectives Often, the comparative adjective is followed by "than". Look at these examples: John is 1m80.
Inventions in the Middle Ages - The Finer Times From the invasion of William the Conqueror in 1066 right through to the beginning of the Tudor dynasty in 1485 a lot of wars took place during the Middle Ages, and with war comes the development of technology, weaponry, medicine and so much more. The Middle Ages account for several centuries of human innovation and inspiration, and a vast number off innovations came from this particular historical period. The Middle Ages may have been bloody, but it led to the great changes in the way wars were fought and the tools that were used to wage battle and protect troops. During this time we know that there was disruption and change to the church, and the period saw considerable changes to ruling monarchies, leadership and ownership. Pestilence and plague created a change in medicine, farming and housekeeping, and even the peasants were able to change the way that they were perceived and treated.

Zum Thema der Apokalypse • Kunsthistorisches Institut • Fachbereich Geschichts- und Kulturwissenschaften Verbannt auf die griechische Insel Patmos vor Ephesus (Apk. 1,9) verfasst der Prophet Johannes die Offenbarung. In Briefform richtet er sich an sieben christliche Gemeinden in Kleinasien (Apk. 2-3) und übermittelt ihnen die göttliche Schau, die ihm in der Verbannung zu Teil wurde. In der Hoffnung auf den Sieg Christi sollen die Gemeinden standfest und glaubenssicher sein. Diesen mittlerweile kanonischen Text, in 22 Kapitel unterteilt, findet man am Ende des Neuen Testaments. Durchdrungen von Zahlenmystik, Symbolen und Allegorien, berichtet Johannes vom Thron Gottes, wo er den Auftrag empfängt die Offenbarung zu verfassen (Apk. 4-5). In einzigartiger Weise hat diese prophetisch-visionäre Offenbarung Künstler vom Mittelalter bis in die Frühe Neuzeit zu eindrucksvollen Bildvorstellungen angeregt. Die Entstehungszeit der Apokalypse bewegt sich in der zweiten Hälfte des ersten Jahrhunderts nach Christi.

Inventions Timeline: Middle Ages Innovations Though there is a dispute as to the exact years that bookend the Middle Ages, most sources say 500 A.D. to 1450 A.D. Many history books call this time the Dark Ages as it reflected a lull in learning and literacy, but, in fact, there were plenty of inventions and highlights during this time. The time period was known for its famine, plague, feuding and warring, namely the biggest period of bloodshed was during the Crusades. The church was the overwhelming power in the West and the most educated people were the clergy. Paper Money as Currency In 1023, the first government-issued paper money was printed in China. Movable Type Printing Press Although Johannes Gutenberg is usually credited with inventing the first printing press about 400 years later, it was, in fact, Han Chinese innovator Bi Sheng (990–1051) during the Northern Song Dynasty (960–1127), who gave us the world's first movable type printing press technology.
