Middle Ages 500-1000 1 3 The Dark Age Church Period of Barbarian Invasions AD 500—1000 Introduction With the endorsement of the Emperor and obligatory church membership for all Roman citizens across the empire, Roman Christianity continued to change the nature of the Church, in stead of visa versa. The humble beginnings were soon forgotten in the luxurious halls and civil power of the highest courts and assemblies of the known world. Who needs spiritual power when you can have civil power? The transition from being the persecuted to the persecutor, from the powerless to the powerful with Imperial and divine authority brought with it the inevitable seeds of corruption. Some say that Christianity won the known world in the first five centuries, but a closer look may reveal that the world had won Christianity as well, and that, in much less time. The year 476 usually marks the end of the Christian Roman Empire in the West.

THE MIDDLE AGES 67 Erik the Red and Leif Eriksson, 2000 Norse Explorers c. 900–c. 1100 Bands of Scandinavian sailors known as Vikings explored and plundered the known world during the Middle Ages. While on a 1500 raid, two Viking ships were blown off course and landed on the island of Iceland. Other Norwegians soon joined them and settled there. By 930, the population had grown to 20,000. Conditions were not ideal for farming, so most settlers became shepherds. Initially, the small population allowed for a loose government with families settling their 1000 own disputes. As the population of Iceland grew, the settlers formed a government known as the Althing, which functioned much like a democracy. The most serious criminals were subject to banishment. Erik the Red, the most famous person to be banished from Iceland, was forced to leave after killing two of his neighbors. He sailed to 500 Greenland and established a new colony. His son, Leif Eriksson, converted to Christianity during a visit to Norway and then brought Christianity to Greenland. Living conditions in icy Greenland were harsh, and many Vikings continued to set out on voyages. In 1002, Leif Eriksson set out on a voyage to discover a mysterious land he had heard about during evening discussions around the fire. He made 0 it to Newfoundland, Canada, which he named Vinland in honor Guests from Overseas, Nicholas Roerich, 1901 Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow of the vines growing there.

    BALI in a MULTICULTURALAND GLOBALISED WORLD: Religion, Tolerance, Solidarity and Harmonious Life

    1 BALI IN A MULTICULTURALAND GLOBALISED WORLD: Religion, Tolerance, Solidarity and Harmonious Life I Ketut Ardhana Widya Kerthi Foundation Hindu University of Indonesia, Denpasar-Bali [email protected] Abstract Everyone realizes that globalization that has come from the Western to the Eastern world has played a major role in whole parts of the world. One the one hand, this development gives a positive aspect, but on the other hand, it gives a negative impact to the development of a society. This fast development has changed the face of world. Due to the negative impacts, it is often argued, that the globalization has caused a failure to the local development in terms of the prosperious and the happiness of the people. It is not surprising, if there are some important questions emerge regarding on how the local people who lived in a harmonious life in the context of multicultural society. Accordingly, they have to face some crucial issues that they feel will threat their life not only in the short term, but also in the long term. Therefore, they have tried to solve their problems by looking at certain local values that they had already had, based on local tradition and already rooted in a long time of its history. By looking at this local perspective, they convince that they will be able to secure their life from the outside influences. Regarding on this issue, there are certain questions as follows.Firstly, how can we understand the existence of local culture in the context of national and universal culture? Secondly, what kinds of issues that have to be faced in the context of globalization, and thirdly what kinds of solutions that can be given in order to be answered the main issues in the context of globalization, not only in the present time, but also in the future in the context of sustainable community development? These are certain questionsthat will be addressed in this paper.

    India, China, and Byzantium

    c H A p T E R 9 India, China, and Byzantium Lin Cheng yawned and pushed aside the report he had been writing. Noticing that the room was filled with a soft glow, he looked out the window. A full moon lit up the canal below. Barges filled with rice floated by on their way to Beijing. It had been a good harvest, and the peasants were singing as they poled their barges through the water. Tonight, Lin Cheng felt like a father to these strong, hard- working people. He had been their governor for 20 years. And thanks to the policies of the emperor, he had been a just one. Lin Cheng thought how lucky he had been. He no longer minded that his older brother had inherited the family property. He, Lin Cheng, had been the clever one. He had scored high on the civil service examination. Now, instead of acting as the manager of his brother's estate, he ruled a whole province. What if he had been born under the previous line of emperors? Under the Sui, he would have had no opportunity for advancement. Would he have grown resentful of his brother's arrogance? Would he have escaped to this very province? Instead of bringing peace and plenty to its people, would he have urged them to rebel against their rulers? Lin Cheng felt his pulse quicken a little. These contrasting fates would make a good poem. He turned back to his writing table and dipped his brush in the ink. 157 U s empires grew larger and more complex, their rulers tried Ei! many methods of governing.

    Ancient Rome and Early Christianity, 500 B.C.-A.D. 500 Previewing Main Ideas POWER AND AUTHORITY Rome began as a republic, a government in which elected officials represent the people. Eventually, absolute rulers called emperors seized power and expanded the empire. Geography About how many miles did the Roman Empire stretch from east to west? EMPIRE BUILDING At its height, the Roman Empire touched three continents—Europe, Asia, and Africa. For several centuries, Rome brought peace and prosperity to its empire before its eventual collapse. Geography Why was the Mediterranean Sea important to the Roman Empire? RELIGIOUS AND ETHICAL SYSTEMS Out of Judea rose a monotheistic, or single-god, religion known as Christianity. Based on the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, it soon spread throughout Rome and beyond. Geography What geographic features might have helped or hindered the spread of Christianity throughout the Roman Empire?

You are a member of the senate in ancient Rome. Soon you must decide whether to support or oppose a powerful leader who wants to become ruler. Many consider him a military genius for having gained vast territory and wealth for Rome. Others point out that he disobeyed orders and is both ruthless and devious. You wonder whether his ambition would lead to greater prosperity and order in the empire or to injustice and unrest. ▲ This 19th-century painting by Italian artist Cesare Maccari shows Cicero, one of ancient Rome’s greatest public speakers, addressing fellow members of the Roman Senate.

Despite extensive advances in scholarship since 1900, medieval his- torians continue to accept and repeat this revisionist position, a position that is methodologically jejune and that almost completely ignores the social dynamics of millennial beliefs.

This series explores how the visible has been used to express the invisible, and is designed to provide an understanding of the world's religions through the various art forms associated with religious practice and experience.

    Large Print Guide – Room 41 Sutton Hoo and Europe

    Sutton Hoo and Europe AD 300–1100 This was a time of great change in Europe. The Roman Empire broke down in the west, but continued in the east as the Byzantine Empire. People, objects and ideas travelled across the continent and its seas, while Christianity and Islam emerged as major religions. By 1100 the precursors of several modern states had developed. Europe as we know it today was beginning to take shape. 1 Sutton Hoo and Europe The Desborough Necklace Anglo-Saxon England, late AD 600s This necklace, found in a woman’s grave, is the fnest of its kind to survive from Anglo-Saxon England. Its gold wire beads and pendants set with garnets refect a mix of Mediterranean and continental fashions. The inclusion of a cross pendant refects the infuence of Christianity on Anglo-Saxon culture during a time of changing religious beliefs.

Its intricate pattern of lively animals with glittering gold bodies and blue glass eyes is inlaid with niello, a black metal alloy that was popular at this time. The mixture of materials is unusual for a brooch of this date and it was probably worn by a wealthy woman.
