Section Description

Across the dynamic twelfth century, the nature of power and culture developed rapidly in the kingdom of France. From crusades to cathedral schools, from Arthurian romance to the love letters of Abelard and Heloise, from Eleanor of Aquitaine to Philip Augustus, medieval culture was at its most inventive in this century, with Paris and France at its heart. This course will trace developments on three levels: Royal power, intellectual institutions, and aristocratic culture. We will pursue these themes largely by reading and analyzing primary sources, and by writing a series of medium-length papers.
