Résumé
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights:#1 The Dark Ages, which lasted from around 400 to 1000 AD, were marked by a lack of intellectual life in Europe, as well as constant warfare and lawlessness.#2 The Roman Empire was already in a state of collapse by 400, when the Visigoth Alaric led forty thousand Goths, Huns, and freed Roman slaves across the Julian Alps. In 410, his triumphant warriors swept down to Rome itself, and they entered it on August 24.#3 The Dark Ages were a period of great suffering and despair for the European people. The empire's drainage system was no longer working, and there were frequent floods and storms. The serfs' basic agricultural tools were picks, forks, spades, rakes, and balanced sickles.#4 The medieval period was a time of great bloodshed and violence, but also a time of great Christianity. Medieval Christians, knowing the other cheek would be bloodied, did not turn it. Death was the prescribed penalty for hundreds of offenses, particularly those against property.
