EUROPE IN THE MIDDLE AGES

The Middle Ages were dark in the literal sense of the word: apart from precious wax, which hardly anyone could afford, there was in fact no other form of illumination. Scholars begged God for light to enable them to pursue their studies. In fact, the "Dark Ages" between 800 and 1500 were a brilliant, dynamic time that paved the way for many achievements of our modern day world. This four part documentary series throws light on an epoch of major importance. Experimental historical research illustrates the impact the Middle Ages had on the Modern Age.
