    Extractions: Middle Ages by region Medieval Britain Medieval France Medieval Germany Medieval Italy ... Byzantine Empire by topic Art Literature Poetry Music Architecture Philosophy ... Fortifications Medieval literature is a broad subject, encompassing essentially all written works available in Europe and beyond during the Middle Ages (encompassing the one thousand years from the fall of the Western Roman Empire ca. AD to the beginning of the Florentine Renaissance in the late 15th century). The literature of this time was composed of religious writings as well as secular works. Just as in modern literature, it is a complex and rich field of study, from the utterly sacred to the exuberantly profane , touching all points in-between. Because of the wide range of time and place it is difficult to speak in general terms without oversimplification, and thus the literature is best characterized by its place of origin and/or language, as well as its genre. edit Since Latin was the language of the Catholic Church , which dominated Western and Central Europe , and since the Church was virtually the only source of education, Latin was a common language for Medieval writings, even in some parts of Europe that were never Romanized. However, in

    http://www.fas.harvard.edu/~classics/programs/graduate.html
    
    Extractions: Though the Department views the training of future university teachers as a major part of its mandate, its primary concern is to foster as thorough an expertise as possible in those classical, medieval, and modern fields which are centered on Greek and Latin language and literature. For this reason, the Department emphasizes the acquisition not only of knowledge, but also of skills - in teaching, in analysis, in research - which will enable its graduates to find careers both within and outside the traditional fields. Great emphasis is laid in the process of graduate admission on the adaptability of students to a flexible job-market, and the Department assists the career development of its students by placement advice and other practical assistance with the application process. There are regular occasions for graduate students and members of the Department to meet informally outside the classroom; in addition, there are frequent colloquia, and opportunities for discussion of graduate and faculty work. The seminar on Ancient Greece and Rome in Harvard's Humanities Center sponsors roundtable discussion groups for faculty and graduate students. There are many public lectures sponsored by the Department each year, including several James Loeb Classical Lectures given by distinguished scholars invited from outside the University. In alternate years the Carl Newell Jackson Lectures bring an eminent scholar to deliver four lectures which are subsequently published as a book; occasionally the Lectures are replaced by a Colloquium.

    http://ccat.sas.upenn.edu/bmcr/2004/2004-10-01.html
    
    Extractions: This book is less ribald than its title might suggest but every bit as exciting. "Exciting" in this context means that readers will certainly find here a lot that is admirable, and also a fair amount that is objectionable. But even those parts of the book that may raise some eyebrows (including this reviewer's own) will nonetheless whet appetites and provide welcome food for thought. Chapter I, entitled "Problems, Sources and Strategies", duly presents the book's aim and the methodological problems associated therewith. In the author's words, the book aspires to trace "by means of diachronic comparison and analysis ... the main historical connections between a number of putatively popular or sub-literary motifs, images and even formal devices which occur in ancient Greek poetry, and seemingly identical or analogous motifs, images and formal devices found in medieval and modern Greek popular poetry" (p. 1). The main problems inherent in such an enterprise are suggested by the use of "putatively" and "seemingly" in the above quotation. As P. demonstrates, our direct evidence for popular songs at least until the 19th century, when systematic collection of folk-songs was attempted for the first time is extremely sparse; in practically every case, popular material has come down to us through the intermediary of middle- or high-brow sources. Aside from the fact that literate intermediaries regularly attempt to 'ennoble' their popular material according to classicizing standards, rummaging through written sources of all periods in a quest for folk elements entails the risk of begging the question: namely, of treating such-and-such an element as "popular" simply because it conforms with the researcher's pre-conceived notions of what "popular" is. Moreover, as P. well demonstrates (pp. 1-9), learned and popular literary forms mutually osmose in complex ways. Thus, typically middle-brow channels, such as the liturgical or homiletic tradition, have exerted an incalculable influence on folk literature, while (as P. is well aware, p. 140 n. 46) written sources may even give rise to new types of folk song or other forms of popular entertainment.

    http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/medieval-literary/
    
    Extractions: Please Read How You Can Help Keep the Encyclopedia Free Medieval philosophical texts are written in a variety of literary forms, many peculiar to the period, like the summa or disputed question; others, like the commentary, dialogue, and axiom, are also found in ancient and modern sources but are substantially different in the medieval period from their classical or modern incarnations. Many philosophical texts also have a highly polemical style and/or seem deferential to the authoritative sources they cite. Further, medieval philosophical thinkers operated under the threat of censure from political and religious authority, moving them, some have argued, to write esoterically or to otherwise protect themselves from persecution. All these literary and rhetorical features make medieval philosophical texts considerably more difficult to understand and interpret than modern or even classical philosophical texts. Moreover, the broad range of genre in medieval philosophy raises questions about the nature of philosophical writing in general when compared to the much more restricted set of accepted forms in modern and contemporary philosophical works.
