This is perhaps the best documentary ever created by the History Channel. It gives us a good glimpse of a time long past, when religion was the only law, and barbarians and heathens roamed the land looking to plunder everything in sight.. + Informações

At its height in the second century AD, the Roman Empire was the beacon of learning, trade, power and prosperity in the western world. But success eventually spoils. That Empire--rotten to the core by the fifth century--lay open to barbarian warriors who came in wave after wave of invasion--slaughtering, stealing, and ultimately, settling. As chaos replaced culture, Europe was beset by famine, plague, persecutions, and a state of war that was so persistent it was only rarely interrupted by peace. War would become so routine that it had a season. Every summer, warlords with names like Alaric, Clovis, and Charles the Hammer would ride out with the full force of their armies to slaughter their rivals and plunder their territories. For centuries, the entire continent was consumed in a chaotic free-for-all, as ambitious and bloodthirsty barbarians sought to build their own empires over the ashes of Rome's. These centuries, dominated as they were by both natural and manmade forces of evil, are remembered today as the Dark Ages. But beneath this cloak of darkness were scattered rays of light--men and women who valiantly tended the flames of justice, knowledge, and innovation amidst a perfect storm of disarray. It was these brave souls--people like Charlemagne, St. Benedict and the Empress Theodora--who bridged the gap of civilization between Rome and the Renaissance. It was in the shadows of that turbulent millennium in between that the seeds of modern civilization were sown .... + Informações

John Green teaches you about the so-called Dark Ages, which it turns out weren't as uniformly dark as you may have been led to believe. While Europe was indeed having some issues, many other parts of the world were thriving and relatively enlightened. John covers European Feudalism, the cultural blossoming of the Islamic world, and the scientific and artistic advances in China, all during these "Dark Ages." Along the way, John will raise questions about the validity of Europe's status as a continent, reveal the best and worst years of his life, and frankly state that science and religion were once able to coexist.. + Informações

Introduction to Ancient Greek History (CLCV 205) In this lecture, Professor Donald Kagan explores the earliest history of Greek civilization. He demonstrates how small agricultural enclaves eventually turned into great cities of power and wealth in the Bronze Age, taking as his examples first Minoan Crete and then Mycenaean Greece. He also argues that these civilizations were closely related to the great monarchies of the ancient Near East. He points out that the Mycenaean age eventually came to an abrupt end probably through a process of warfare and migration. Reconstructing the Mycenaean age is possible through archaeological evidence and through epic poetry (Homer). Finally, he provides an account of the collapse of the Mycenaean world, and explains how in its aftermath, the Greeks were poised to start their civilization over on a new slate. 00:00 - Chapter 1.

subscribe to your favorite music lyrics: Yeah can you hear the call in our rambling land susurrations, That can expand beyond all hope of light and plunge us into unrelenting night A pall on truth and reason, It feels like hunting season So avoid those lines of sight and we'll set this right Welcome to the new dark ages I hope you're living right These are the new dark ages And the world might end tonight Now come ye children one and all - let's heed Ezekiel's call, And bide until the word is good and ripe and get plucked clean out of sight The world will be erased our kin will be Immaculate ejaculate in space Before the kind of king's love, he'll snatch us From above, brothers help me sing it Welcome to the new dark ages I hope you're living right These are the new dark ages And the world might end tonight So how do you sleep There's nothing to keep This is deep Because we're animals - with golden rules Who... who can't be moved by rational views Welcome to the new dark ages I hope you're living right Welcome to the new dark ages And the world might end tonight. + Informações
