Publisher's summary

In this chapter from Lynn Thorndike's The History of Medieval Europe: The Medieval revival of learning was in part a revival of the civilization of antiquity which had declined in the late Roman Empire, and in part a breaking away from ancient traditions and the beginning of new methods in speaking, writing, and teaching. It was in large measure the product of the medieval Church and clergy, the expression of the religious motive and of Christian interests. The artists and the scholars of the 12th and 13th centuries learned and borrowed from the Byzantines and the Arabs as well as from the ancients and the church fathers.
