    The Dark Ages Marshall High School Mr. Cline Western Civilization I: Ancient Foundations Marshall High School Unit Five AD * How the Irish Saved Civilization • Christianity's Impact on Insular Art • Ireland's Golden Age is closely tied with the spread of Christianity. • As Angles and Saxons began colonizing the old Roman province of Brittania, Christians living in Britain fled to the relative safety of Ireland. • These Christians found themselves isolated from their neighbors on the mainland and essentially cut off from the influence of the Roman Catholic Church. • This isolation, combined with the mostly agrarian society of Ireland, resulted in a very different form of Christianity. • Instead of establishing a centralized hierarchy, like the Roman Catholic Church, Irish Christians established monasteries. • Monasticism got an early start in Ireland, and monasteries began springing up across the countryside. • The Irish did not just build monasteries in Ireland. * How the Irish Saved Civilization • Christianity's Impact on Insular Art • They sent missionaries to England to begin reconverting their heathen neighbors. • From there they crossed the channels, accelerating the conversion of France, Germany and the Netherlands and establishing monasteries from Poitiers to Vienna. • These monasteries became centers of art and learning, producing art of unprecedented complexity, like the Book of Kells, and great scholars, like the Venerable Bede (Yes, the guy who wrote the Anglo Saxon History of Britain was indeed Irish!) * How the Irish Saved Civilization • Christianity's Impact on Insular Art * How the Irish Saved Civilization • Christianity's Impact on Insular Art • Over time, Ireland became the cultural and religious leader of Northwestern Europe.

Bradbury South Station Hoard Introduction This collaborative arts research project compares the landmark discovery of the Staffordshire Hoard, the largest hoard of Anglo-Saxon gold and silver metalwork discovered in 2009, with an imagined hoard from present day pre-adolescent girls. We constructed a subterranean installation, generated speculative historical documents, collected and embellished social networking “artifacts,” and photographed the entire process. In addition to dealing with the notion of a medieval hoard as a signifier of a medieval warrior as both hero and anti-hero, we address contemporary issues relating to gender, youth culture, bullying, adolescent development, iconicity, status symbols, and additional contemporary tween issues. Our fabricated hoard was stashed away in a long forgotten locker in Boston’s South Station by a group of tween girls in 2012 and found by a group of archaeologists in the year 2812.

  • Anglo-Saxons 1 Title
    Anglo-Saxons Title: Anglo-Saxons A team of history researchers are commissioned by the BBC to do the background reasearch for a series of programmes called ‘The Really Interesting History of Britain’. They visit an Anglo-Saxon excavation site and discover ancient artefacts - uncovered by the archeologists working there - tell amazing stories of the people who once built, lived and died in the village. They learn the villagers were part of a civilisation which was displaced from their homeland, settled in Britain, and created a culture which thrived for over 500 years before being destroyed by defeat at the battle of Hastings. Context This unit begins with the children looking at the noticeboard of a team of successful and busy history researchers. The associated inquiry introduces the students to the work of the team and creates an opportunity for them to ‘step into’ the fiction. The first task for the children is to create the meeting room for the history team from the furniture of the classroom. The second (as the experts) is to give feedback to the BBC for their newly commissioned series ‘The Really Interesting History of Britain.’ They then visit a local Anglo-Saxon excavation site and talk to the archaeologists with the aim of deciding if the site would make an interesting location for filming. To begin with the site doesn’t look promising, however once the team start looking a bit more closely at the background to the artefacts they realise that even the most mundane objects can tell amazing stories. The found objects in this unit operate as ‘bridges’ into the past.

  • The Beginnings of Scholarship on Early Medieval Book Illumination (1700-1850): Between Classicism and Ethnicity1
    The beginnings of scholarship on early medieval book illumination (1700-1850): between classicism and ethnicity1 Charlotte Denoël In 1817, in his Bibliographical Decameron, the English cleric and bibliographer Thomas Frognall Dibdin assigned the production of Anglo-Saxon manuscripts to a period before the Middle Ages, which he called the ‘Earlier Ages’. In 1853, the great art connoisseur and recently-appointed curator of the « Musée des souverains », Horace de Viel-Castel, used a similar classification in his ‘Notice sur la peinture des manuscrits’: I would suggest that the interesting aspect to be studied in the manuscripts is, first of all, the entire Merovingian epoch as well as the Carolingian epoch up to the 13th century when the last misconceptions about ancient art disappear and we can see the beginning of the period conventionally called the Midde Ages, namely, the intermediate time between Antiquity and the Renaissance. 2 This concept of ‘intermediate times,’ referring to the period between the end of Antiquity and the reign of St. Louis, is frequently found in modern scholarship during the eighteenth century up into the first half of the nineteenth century. It is of crucial importance to determine when art in the first centuries AD –particularly in illuminated manuscripts, often being the most outstanding artistic witnesses for this period – began to be included in nineteenth century scholarship; it is equally important to understand the context and manner in which this art was interpreted.3 1 A first version of this paper was given at the symposium organized by Marie Jacob and Chrystèle Blondeau, ‘Le XIXe siècle en lumière : redécouverte et revalorisation de l’enluminure médiévale en France au temps du livre industriel’, Rennes, May, 18-19, 2017.

Roman Britain and Anglo-Saxon Britain: Cultural Differences Levi Berg Medieval History Dr. Kyle Robinson April 12, 2021 2 Roman Britain and Anglo-Saxon Britain: Cultural Differences A role of historians is to distinguish between cultural groups. They must investigate the practices and artifacts in order to create a model. This model should accurately explain events such as celebrations, war, or in the case of Britain, cultural intertwining and invasion. Britain is an interesting case to study in the Middle Ages because of the amount of intermixing that takes place. Within the time period of a few hundred years, Britain had seen multiple different distinct people groups inhabit the island. This paper will focus on the major cultural differences of the two earliest invasions, the Romans and Anglo-Saxons, based on militaristic differences, societal differences, and daily life. However, there is another question that may be answered within this research.
