Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Beginnings of Modern Europe (1250-1450) The period of which this volume treats differs fundamentally both from that which precedes and from that which follows it. In each of those periods we are able to fix our attention upon a certain well-defined set of institutions which completely control its activities In the former, the strictly mediaeval, we see Europe wholly under the sway of two vast ideas, feudalism and the Roman church system. In the latter, the purely modern period, Europe has almost wholly lost those ideas and has come out into the familiar political structure of a family of independent national states and into the freer air of religious toleration, if not yet of religious liberty. Between these two lies the period which is the subject of our present study. It is a chapter in human history of which no brief general description can be given. It is impossible to point to any peculiar institutions that govern its life. As we try to unfold the tangled thread of its history we seem to find only confusion and disorder. It reminds one in many ways of that other and even greater confusion that lies between the records of Rome and those of the Germanic Middle Ages. There we are conscious of a mighty civilization passing away and of another just vaguely taking shape in rude barbaric forms which, however, contain the germs of a new and more vigorous life. So here again we find two opposing currents in the stream of human history, and already at the beginning of our study it is clear which of them is destined to prevail. The vast, picturesque structure of the Middle Ages has done its service and is beginning to crumble. In every direction the resistless forces of the modem world are undermining its foundations or with bolder front are beating in open assault against its walls.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Beginnings of Modern Europe (1250-1450) Naturally these conceptions solidified into institutions. Out of the notion of the reality of abstract ideas grew up the great sys tem of the scholastic philosophy. If it were indeed true that there was a determined volume of religious truth, then it followed that there must be some human organization by which that truth should be made known to men, and that was the Church, an abstraction made concrete in the Roman papal system. If the idea of power were indeed a divine concept, then there must be some human order in which the divine will should have made this abstraction also concrete, and there was the beautiful feudal hierarchy, inde dependent of all limitations of country or of race, culminating in that mysterious idea of the Mediaeval Empire, which was to be, above all other earthly powers, the interpreter of the divine order in human affairs, responsible to God alone.

Download or read book Political Thought in Europe 1250 1450 written by Antony Black and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1992-08-20 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why did European civilisation develop as it did? Why was it so different from that of Russia, the Islamic world and elsewhere? In this new textbook Antony Black explores some of the reasons, looking at ideas of the state, law, rulership, representation of the community, and the right to self-administration, and how, during a crucial period these became embedded in people's self-awareness, and articulated and justified by theorists. This is the first concise overview of a period never previously treated satisfactorily as a whole: Dr Black uses the analytical tools of scholars such as Pocock and Skinner to set the work of political theorists in the context of both contemporary politics and the longer-term history of political ideas. The book provides students of both medieval history and political thought with an accessible and lucid introduction to the early development of certain ideas fundamental to the organisation of the modern world and contains a full bibliography to assist students wishing to pursue the subject in greater depth.
