Outline (in English)

Course outline:
What do you think of medieval Europe? Some may think of it as a fascinating time of heroic knights and humorous Romanesque art, while others may think of it as a time of violence, filth and blind faith in Christianity. In this lecture, we will read historical documents to determine the relationship between fact and fiction about medieval Europe, and together we will consider what it means to know the past.

Learning Objectives:
