Description
Excerpt from The Seven Liberal Arts: A Study in Mediaeval Culture
In no branch of historical investigation have these two canons wrought such remarkable changes as in the study of the Middle Ages. The new attitude towards this fascinating period of history has in some fields completely destroyed the value of much that passed for historical truth fifty years ago. To such an extent have our ideas about the middle ages been modified that the attitude of the modern scholar toward nearly all the traditional views of the period is one of skeptical reserve. Things, he urges, could not have been as we have been led to believe they were.
