Votes:0 LES TRES RICHES HEURES DU DUC DE BERRY LES TRES RICHES HEURES DU DUC DE BERRY WHAT IS THE TRES RICHES HEURES? The Tres Riches Heures is _the_ classic example of a medieval book of
hours. This was a collection of the text for each liturgical hour of the day - hence the name - which often included other, supplementary, texts. Calendars, prayers, psalms and masses for certain holy days were commonly included. The pictures in this directory are from the calendar section of the Tres
Riches Heures. This was painted some time between 1412 and 1416 and is
arguably the most beautiful part of the manuscript; it is certainly the
best known, being one of the great art treasures of France. In
terms of historical and cultural importance, it is certainly equal to more
famous works such as the Mona Lisa, Read More Go to Site
Votes:0 1492 -- The Mediterranean World The Mediterranean World The peoples who inhabited the semi-arid shores of the Mediterranean were united in a common world view - as the name suggests, they saw themselves as living at the center of the world. The region, similar in size to that of the Caribbean, had seen the rise and fall of several civilizations and, in the late 15th century, was again in flux. Prosperous city states were on the rise amidst the decline of medieval feudal society. Renewed interest in Greek and Roman cultures fostered humanistic studies in art and science. New, stimulating ideas were spread with the advent of printing. Out of the doomsday mentality caused by the Black Death, civil wars, and economic uncertainties emerged expansionism, cohesion, and a sense of prosperity. As t Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 The Royal and Delightfull Game of Piquet The game of Piquet or Cent , the game's English name in period,
has been played since at least the end of the 15th century. It is
mentioned in literary and scholarly works as diverse as Rabelais's Gargantua et Pantagruel (1534) and Girolamo Cardano's Liber
de Ludo Aleae (Book on Games of Chance, 1564), a treatise on
probability theory. One of the earliest instruction manuals for a card
game was Le Royal Ieu du Piquet Plaisant et recreatif , The
Royal and Delightfull Game of Piquet. To Play Piquet Piquet is a game for two players, using 36 cards (sixes through Aces).
The dealer is called the younger ; the other player is called
the elder . Each hand of piquet is divided into five parts: Blanks and discards, ruffs, sequences, sets, and tricks. The par Read More Go to Site
Votes:0 What Are Runes? Runes are an alphabetic script used by the peoples of Northern Europe from the first century c.e. until well into the Middle Ages. In addition to their use as a written alphabet, the runes also served as a system of symbols used for magic and divination. Runes fell into disuse as the Roman alphabets became the preferred script of most of Europe, but their forms and meanings were preserved in inscriptions and manuscripts. The primary characteristic which distinguishes a runic alphabet from other alphabets is that each letter, or rune, has a meaning. For example, whereas "ay", "bee", and "cee" are meaningless sounds denoting the first three letters in our alphabet, the names of the first three runes, "fehu", "uruz", and "?urisaz" are actual words in the Germanic language, mea Read More Go to Site
Votes:0 The West Takes the Offensive With the collapse of Charlemagne?s empire and the development of feudalism, Europe showed little immediate potential for the development of political and economic power. But during this period the growth of trade and commerce broke up the manorial system, new social classes were formed and the society of the West became changed in the process. The Muslims were successfully challenged in Sicily and this ended the complete control by the Muslims of the Mediterranean world. At the same time in northern Spain bands of Christians sparked a long struggle against Muslims known as the Reconquista, and this attitude of military campaign in the name of Christ would achieve its highest expression in the crusades. With the crusades and other expansive eastward movements in Read More Go to Site
