The Four Dark Ages: Greece 1200-700 BCE; Rome 250-500 CE; Europe 9th & 10th Centuries; and 14th Century Europe
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 7 page paper discussing the four “dark ages” in Europe. Europe underwent in essence four dark ages from 1200-700 BCE in Greece, 250-500 CE in Rome, the 9th and 10th centuries in Europe and again in the 14th century in Europe. All of these periods are denoted by their political, cultural, religious and social declines during the presence of increased warfare, decreased economy and sometimes plague or famine. Regardless of these dark eras, they showed creative activity which led the way to Renaissance. Homer’s poems were developed during the dark Greek ages and the centralization and establishment of the Christian religion took place during the end of the Roman period into the time of Charlemagne’s campaigns in 9th century Europe. The plagues and wars which shook Europe in the 14th century saw the development of humanism and a new creativity which was independent from the Church and new ideas were based on the strength of politics and man.
Bibliography lists 9 sources.

Even more importantly, he would wield the power of his knowledge against the teachings of the cult of the Manichees and devote considerable attention as well to his investigations of original sin and other teachings.

The Metaphysical in the works of Milton and Donne.
[ send me this paper ]
(9pp)According to Sir Herbert J.C. Grierson (1997
) "Metaphysical poetry, in the full sense of the
term, is a poetry which has been inspired by a
philosophical conception of the universe and the
rôle assigned to the human spirit in the grea
t drama of existence. Doesn't that definition
sound elegant? When was the last time that you
acknowledged your role in the "great drama of
existence?" The reason that I mention this is
that the study of "metaphysics," is becoming more
popular each year. Yet, what we will look at in
this discussion is the historic roots of the form
as seen through the poetry of John Milton and
John Donne. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

skills and the crafts of a trade; the structure
