Year Three: High Medieval through Post-Reformation
Picking up where Volume Two leaves off, we move into the High Medieval period. This time period is probably the most misunderstood and maligned eras in history. Yet the "Middle Ages" produced some of the most inspiring saints, beautiful cathedrals, paintings, sculptures, and literature, as well as scientific discoveries and inventions that endure to this day. This volume also provides numerous opportunities to learn the truth about the role played by the Church in these fruitful centuries, as well as the tragedy of the Reformation and its aftermath.
