Many historians consider the term "Dark Ages" extremely unfortunate. There was no time after the collapse of the Roman Empire that there weren't numerous centers of learning in Europe. We don't have detailed records of their achievements any more, but we know they existed.And if you are using the term in an economic context, it's hard to argue that the average peasant in 1400 was that much better off than the average peasant in 700. |
