章节摘录

2.1  Feudalism and the Middle AgesRenaissance writers coined the phrase "Middle Ages" to refer to what occurred from the decline of Rome to the Renaissance period. Between about 600 and 1500——the rough opening and closing dates of the Middle Ages——too many different things happened to be characterized in any single way. The ideas and institutions of western civilization derive largely from the turbulent events of the Early Middle Ages and the rebirth of culture in later years. The Middle Ages may be studied profitably both for their own intrinsic interest and for the fundamental contributions they made to the development of the modern world.In the late Roman period, slavery became uneconomical: the upkeep of slaves was costly and they showed no particular enthusiasm for their work. The abolition of slavery came not with moral progress but with economic change. Development of free people as tenant farmers proved to be more economical. The growth of large estates and the political disorder following the fall of Rome led to economic, social, and political chaos, ripe for the emergence of the feudal system.Feudalism as a cultural system prevailed from about 600 C.E. to about 1500 C.E. At the base of the feudal system was the serf who tilled a plot of land owned by the manorial lord, much like modern sharecropper. Serfs were given military protection in exchange for a portion of the products of his labors. The feudal system tied people to the land, fixed rigid class distinctions, established an age of landed aristocracy that was to endure to the Industrial Revolution, forced education to a standstill, made poverty and ignorance the hallmark of the masses, and completely stifled human progress until the age of reformation. It is no wonder that some historians prefer to call this period "the Dark Ages".
