need for people to learn how to read those books and write. Also, before the renaissance, artists mainly created dark and depressing works of art. But this changed when Giotto Di Bondone (c.1266/76-1337) broke away from the expressionless figures inspired by Byzantine and medieval art (Renaissance). He developed story with movement and emotion through his art. His frescoes (wall paintings made with fresh plaster) included scenes from the lives of Christ and of St. Francis of Assisi.

dismantlement of the feudal system, advancements in the medical field, and expression of faith through artwork. One of the three most important effects of the Black Death was the abolishment of feudalism and an eventual power and control of the medieval kings. Before the plague, peasants barely had any rights. With the increasing demand for their labor, they tried to request written documents that listed their rights. Because of their unwillingness to respond, lords began to lose their power over

cures and treatment they believed to cure the plague. On the good side, the Black Death led to new explorations and trade routes for merchants to use. New explorations found spices that became on demand around Europe. The plague has a great impact on art and literature as some artists drew pictures of the plague showing a feeling of sorrow and melancholy. It also represents “evil” and “death”. As the Feudal System was removed, new rulers and system were put and some peasants have much more rights after

Trained practitioners focused on theology and liberal arts for the first 7 years of their studies, thus emphasizing a medical focus more on art and theology and less on science. “It was this intellectualism that was critical to distinguishing the learned physician who knew the reasons for things [from] the hireling with a knack for healing” (Porter, 114).

The plague that had a huge impact on Europeans’ religious beliefs and Feudalism in Medieval society, called ‘Black Death’. Since those days Europeans had no amount of medical knowledge to find out that the plague was caused by fleas carried by rats or remedies and it occurred so suddenly and strongly, people, who were young and old, rich and poor,

lasted for only around three years (1347-1351), but became a part of European life. Since the Black Death became such a large part of European life, it is no surprise that during the devastating period it became a common theme in Christian European art. The Black Death inspired graphic, religiously

profoundly influenced the medieval worldview. He defended the use of rhetoric and helped to preserve its study and usage. St. Augustine believed that human beings communicate through signs and persuading Christians to lead a holy life. St. Augustine believes truth comes from the divine and believes scripture to be divinely inspired, set down by magnificent men through whom the divine speaks. Augustine’s role in the Christianization of rhetoric reveals clearly that Augustine thought the art of eloquence should

period, described that later style as an artem magis subtiliter, or a “more subtle art.” Musicologist Ursula Günther was the first, in 1950, to use the term “ars subtilior” to refer that complex musical style, which is the term widely used by musicologists today . In this paper, I am going to talk about the characteristic musical notation in Chantilly Codex of Ars Subtilior Music and its historical significance in Medieval music history. In addition, I will also make a reflection on the characteristics

Beautiful music is the art of the prophets that can calm the agitations of the soul, it is one of the most magnificent and delightful presents God has given us -Martin Luther. Music was a part of life then and it is a part of life today. Without music, life itself would be a mistake. Seeing the changes over the years is a great way to follow the patterns and differences this way of communicating has shown us. Some of the more popular music was the Gregorian Chant, Organum, Motet and Madrigal. In
