Notes on England Middle Ages

Dialectic - a form of logic

Muslims and Christians cannot get along
Muslims have many works of philosophy, and they are not speaking to the Europeans

This changed the way people thought

Nationalism - the people in a country don't want to deal with people outside of their borders
Confused with patriotism

England rises in power in the 14th century
English monarchs developed dynasty

Abelard - philosophy teach
Fell in love with his student Heloise
Heloise's family hates Abelard, and she is sent to a convent
Have a relationship via love letters
WOMAN's voice in primary sources

Artwork - very religious

France becomes extremely powerful
Many cathedrals being made
More powerful than England
