Welcome - The Medieval Church HIST 3002   The Medieval Church
CREDIT HOURS: 3
This course ranges far and wide over the history of the church in medieval Europe, adopting a thematic rather than a strictly chronological approach. Subjects of study include monasticism, heresy, education and the universities, town and cathedral, lay-clerical conflict, and “popular” concepts of religion. Each year several topics are examined in detail, with the help of original documents in translation, and using recent periodical literature and/or monographs. Students prepare two versions of a well-researched paper, and class discussions are used to explore related materials and readings in greater depth. Some prior knowledge of medieval European history is essential.
