This course will bring the medieval world view to life. Between 500 and 1500 Europeans keenly studied the universe around them, learning from distant cultures and making scientific knowledge a key part of Christian faith. We will look at manuscripts and learn to use instruments like the astrolabe, to understand how the Middle Ages laid the foundations for modern science. Not to be taken with A16 in ISP Term I.
