First, explore why people rediscovering the works of classical Greece and Rome saw the Middle Ages as sterile; and then state whether or not that was a fair assessment, providing examples to support your view.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>The intellectual history of the later Middle Ages has traditionally been described as decadent, autumnal, waning. Yet recently a few scholars have asserted that the period between 1250-1450 was one of innovation, change, possibility. Which view is more accurate and why?\u00a0Medievalists tend to dismiss this argument out of hand. Take a fresh look at this argument and consider the extent to which the Middle Ages was an sterile age, merely passing on diluted versions of the heritage of antiquity, and the extent to which it contributed new and vital elements to the European tradition.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Describe the agricultural technology used by Medieval Europeans and West Africans.\u00a0 In your opinion which was more effective (or even more advanced)?\u00a0 Use examples from the reading to support your answer.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>For this week, citing three times exclusively from Broedel&#8217;s chapter<\/strong> <strong>is perfectly acceptable.
