consisted of big rooms with a high ceiling and a straw-covered floor.By 12th century,manor houses were made of stone and designed as fortresses(堡垒堡垒).They came to be called castles.Medieval Europe was dotted with castles.2.Knighthood and code of ChivalrylAlmost all nobles in the Medieval days were knights lCode of Chivalry:As a knight,he was pledged to protect the weak,to fight for the church,to be

the Catholic ChurchUnder feudalism,people of western Europe were mainly divided into three classes:clergy,lords and peasants.The Medieval Church was the centre of daily life in the country and town alike,and it had a part in all important events.serfdom 奴隶制奴隶制:a social system of production in which labourers are bound to work for an estate,rather than being owned by the lord of that estate and could choose to work elsewhere though few would do so in realityPenalty systemWhen the torture was executed,the suspect or defendant was tied to a wooden board supported by two parallel supports.He was put into a mouth with a horn and a 9 minute pint of water was slowly poured into the stomach of the suspect or defendant,and his nose was clamped to force it to swallow the water.Water penalty At that time,many people believed in Catholicism or Christianity.At that time,the social ethos believed that punishment was for atonement and that ones soul could be redeemed.In particular,if a person who has made a mistake can swallow boiling hot water or burning coal,he can clean his rotten soul and be blessed by God.Cleaning the soul The penalty is that craftsmen create a hollow copper ox with a door to let people in and out.Put the prisoner in,and then slowly heat the copper ox with fire.The prisoner inside makes a miserable sound.The cry is made by the specially treated mouth of the ox,which makes people outside sound like the sound of the cow.Roast copper cattle LaughingThe instrument is goat.The victim will bind his limbs to wooden shackles and tighten them tightly.Then honey or salt water was applied to the feet,and the goat keep touching it and the victim keep laughing until died.The 1940s and 1950s were a very miserable period for Europe.From 1347 to 1353,the plague swept across Europe,killing 25 million Europeans,accounting for one third of the total European population at that time.In the 20th century,it was comparable to the most tragic World War II in human history.The total number of people who died in the war in Europe was 5%of its population.Enough to see the plague to the people of Europe brought disaster.The plague has been described as Black Death in many literatures.Medieval universities in Europe refer to the institutions of higher learning that emerged in European countries from the 11th century to the 17th century.1.Its a kind of scholar guild.The University of Bologna,a student-centered University,is made up of students of law studies in the city to protect their interests in the city.The University of Paris is teacher-centered.2.These universities mainly include law,medicine,theology and later referred to as liberal arts.The curriculum is rather poor,mainly engaged in pure theoretical research divorced from social reality,which has no direct connection with social development.3.It is closely related to religion.At that time,monks were learned people in society.The teaching content is full of scholasticism,which mainly seeks the basis for theology and doctrines,and propagandizes religion.It is an important duty of the university to train the clergy.4.It enjoys a certain degree of autonomy.As an independent group outside the society,it has the right to manage its own internal affairs,including electing principals,arranging courses,hiring teachers and so on.It is an architectural style that flourished at the peak and end of the middle ages.It developed from Roman architecture and was inherited by Renaissance architecture.Originated in France in the 12th century and lasted until the 16th century,Gothic architecture is generally known as Opus francisgenum in contemporary times.The characteristics of Gothic architecture include pointed arch,rib vault and flying arch.pointed arch,rib vault and flying arch1.Early Christian ArtEarly Christian art refers to the art of catacombs,about 100-420 A.D.It ended with Christianity being established as the national religion.They can be roughly characterized as Basilica-plan and central-plan.Characteristics:lEarly buildings were only on walls and roof,decorated with murals and plaster relief,with few round carvings.lMost of the murals are drawn from the Bible,using symbolic expression techniques,omitting the details of the story,and conceptualizing and formulaizing the characters.lThere are a lot of
