Medieval Culture Quick Question: Who were the scholars of the Middle Ages? What language did they write in? Slight problem: Only scholars could read it!

Philosophy Medieval scholars were often members of the “Regular” Clergy Obviously they looked to the Christian faith to explain the world around them They had a problem with Greek philosophy/classic philosophers Why? The Greeks weren’t Christian! Sorry if my ideas don’t contain anything Christian. We hadn’t heard of it yet

Scholasticism Scholasticism was a new philosophy that tried to balance human reason and logic with religious faith Aristotle used human reason and logic to explain things Medieval scholars had little use for reason and logic. They wanted a religious explanation for everything. St. Thomas Aquinas was a famous Scholastic philosopher. I’ll prove that every point of church doctrine can be arrived at by logic and reason as well as faith!

Architecture Church architecture was the dominant form of expression. People started to get wealthy, because of growth of trade. They used their wealth to create monuments to God. Early church architecture was Romanesque Thick walls and small windows

Kinda looks like a barn, no?

Gothic Architecture Gothic Architecture replaced Romanesque Canterbury Cathedral, England Large Windows Thinner Walls How’d they do it?

Notre Dame, Paris It’s the Flying Buttresses
