章節(jié)摘錄

　　The Medieval West included at its broadest both the Latin or Frankish West， and the Orthodox Eastern part， where Greek remainedthe language of empire. More narrowly， it was Catholic（Latin） Europe.After the crowning of Charlemagne， this part of Europe was referred to byits neighbors in Byzantium and the Moslem world as Frankish.　　After the fall of Rome much of Greco-Roman art， literature， scienceand even technology were all but lost in the western part of the old empire，centered around Italy， and Gaul （France）. However， this would becomethe center of a new West. Europe fell into political anarchy， with manywarring kingdoms and principalities. Under the Frankish kings， it eventu-ally reunified and evolved into feudalism.　　Much of the basis of the post-Roman cultural world had been set be-fore the fall of the Empire， mainly through the integrating and reshaping ofRoman ideas through Christian thought. The Greek and Roman gods hadbeen completely replaced by Christianity around the 4th and 5th centuries，since it became the official State religion as a unifying force in Western Eu-rope. Art and literature， law， education， and politics were preserved inthe teachings of the Church. The Church founded many cathedrals， univer-sities， monasteries and seminaries， some of which continue to exist today.In the Medieval period， the route to power for many men was in theChurch.
