Medieval Fully
The conemporary university is fully severed from its greek and medieval roots.?
How can l support this claim?
Argue in favor for reform
Compare the institution or cultures
Allan Bloom's book "The Closing of the American Mind"
is a good place to start. But to do that you had better
start with Plato's "Republic".
To support the claim I think you can discuss the issues
which make these institutions different:
1. The purpose of the university then and now
2. The world outlook of the university then and now
3. The removal of the Classics as the basis of modern
pre-university education in favor of an education which
is politically oriented towards a socialist agenda.
4. Use curriculum offerings in various schools to show the
removal of grammar and core classics courses in
in English departments in favor of literature based on
political agendas.
5. The dumbing down of the universities to admit people
who are not qualified to do true university level work.
Bloom will help on in favor of reform as well as painting a good picture of what happened to the roots--he argues that we have lost depth, the ability to use logic properly, and
we have lost insight, in favor of a 'flat' society, and the university is a huge culprit in this flattening of values.
The modern school system from kindergarten on seeks to bypass the traditional teachings and inculcate the students with views which are narrower than those they knocked down.
The toleration, and even the embracing of immoral values,
relativism, perception as opposed to objective reality,
the removal of the Bible so that this foundational source of American law and society is no longer even known, an emphasis on black history that puts the rest of American history in the shadows, and encourages and reinforces the victim mentality, rather than showing the many great achievements American blacks have overcome in the past. The emphasis on cultural diversity to the point where the kids have no sense of American identity built into them.
When schools begin to break down their own civilization,
replacing it with that which inferior and negative and produces fear in the students, that school system is in great need of reform.
You'll have to study the modern American institution
and a Greek school of philosophy and a European school which had it's roots in the Middle Ages. Take one representative from each group, or you'll be swamped and doing a doctoral thesis.
Best of luck with this truly important subject,
Maggie

| | Medieval Europe $23.09 Purchase one of 1st World Librarys Classic Books and help support our free internet library of downloadable eBooks. Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG All divisions of history into periods are artificial in proportion as they are precise. In history there is, strictly speaking, no end and no beginning. Each event is the product of an infinite series of causes, the startingpoint of an infinite series of effects. Language and thought, government and manners, transform themselves by imperceptible degrees; with the result that every age is an age of transition, not fully intelligible unless regarded as the child of a past and the parent of a future. Even so the species of the animal and vegetable kingdoms shade off one into another until, if we only observe the marginal cases, we are inclined to doubt whether the species is more than a figment of the mind. Yet the biologist is prepared to defend the idea of species; and in like manner the historian holds that the distinction between one phase of culture and another is real enough to justify, and, indeed, to demand, the use of distinguishing names.

| | Medieval Art (Paperback) $38.13 This refreshing new look at Medieval art conveys a very real sense of the impact of art on everyday life in Europe from 1000 to 1500. It examines the importance of art in the expression and spread of knowledge and ideas, including notions of the heroism and justice of war, and the dominant view of Christianity. Taking its starting point from issues of contemporary relevance, such as the environment, the identity of the artist, and the position of women, the book also highlights the attitudes and events specific to the sophisticated visual culture of the Middle Ages, and goes on to link this period to the Renaissance. The fascinating question of whether commercial and social activities between countries encouraged similar artistic taste and patronage, or contributed to the defining of cultural difference in Europe, is fully explored. |
| | Dante and the Medieval Other World $71.7 A major study of the Divine Comedy, this book offers an interesting perspective on Dantes representation of the afterlife. Alison Morgan departs from the conventional critical emphasis on Dantes place in relation to learned traditions by undertaking a thorough examination of the poem in the context of popular beliefs. Her principal sources are thus not the highly literary texts (such as Virgils Aeneid or Thomas Aquinass Summa Theologiae) which have become a familiar context for the poem, but rather visions of the Other World found in popular writings, painting and sculpture from the centuries leading up to its composition. The book will be of interest to nonspecialists in addition to scholars of Dante, since it offers a clear preliminary account of the Other World tradition, a chronology of its principal representations and summaries of the major texts. Fully illustrated throughout, it integrates with the literary and theological aspects of Dantes heritage the important but often neglected dimension of art history.

women and the church and ministry- help?
ive got an essay to do on this question: How far and in what ways might Church practice and ministry serve to exclude and marginalise women?
so far i have focused on the the idea of male and female being equal (paying attention to the creation story, male born 1st, woman subordinate). then the idea of god as male and due to this a woman cannot represent christ in the church for instance during the eucharist. then i was looking at paul n how he talks about the silencing of women.
is this the correct method to take to answering this question?? also is it important to look at the history of women in the church- early judaism, medieval and reformation??
anything else that i should look at to answer the question fully?? please get back to asap!

In the Jewish faith, the reason women are so limited in worship activities is because they are supposed to be devoted to home and family, and therefore cannot follow all the religious laws (halakhas) without stopping in the middle of her duties as a wife, mother, and homemaker. Much of this carried on into the Christian faith, only instead of not observing all the halakhas, women were not permitted to perform the eucharist or be a minister. This is because since men had always dominated religious activities, they continued to limit the women's ones. Things are slowly changing within the Protestant sect of Christianity, some denominations allowing women to be ministers and to perform the eucharist, others still sticking with ancient tradition. Women are mostly regarded in Christianity as evil due to the concept of original sin, which Judaism does not have. Also, the concept of a male god exists solely in Christianity, whereas Judaism believes Go has both male and female aspects. In simple terms, Christianity has always tried to exclude and marginalize women because of the original sin concept (women brought sin/evil into the world, therefore women must be evil).
