,Hoorcollege 1 | 3 sep. 2019 The beginning of European History

! Learn from summaries from high school.

18th c. - 1960s = European history is seen as the universal history, the history of
modernity.

Europe is seen as ‘the place’ with history compared to Asia and Africa.

Turning points​ = moments in the history where new times start

Are they invented by historians or contemporaries?

We study European History because the past in the present/historical turn social &
legal economic sciences.

The humanist invented the periodisation of european history like the middle ages.

The beginning of European history? = European Narratives

Pluralist narrative​ = political, economic, religious fragmentation as cause of
European dynamism ​(​‘Rise of West’​)

The idea of ​what Europe is ​changes all the time. Some examples; christianity,
science, freedom, racial..

Europe is seen a lot as a fragmented continent.

!Blockmans text, look and try to see if you agree with him. Is the fragmentation
unique for Europe or not? Is it a myth?

Turning point 476: The structure of the roman empire being destroyed by barbars. ??
barbaren ofs

The roman empire wasn’t a European empire. Europe didn’t have a identity. In the
roman time they didn’t see themselves as ‘roman’ or ‘european’

The greeks did have a idea of Europe but is was all centered around themselves.

! you do not have to know about the dates

Rome had a long of phases:

, 1. roman republic becomes empire
2. conversion emperor constantine
3. division eastern and western empire
4. Deposition (Western-) Roman emperor by German army leader Od
Deposition (Western-) Roman emperor by German army leader Odoacer

The fall of the (west) roman empire was a huge turning point

When you ask people in the 5th century what the turning points were in their lives
they would probably tell:
476 Deposition Roman Emperor by Odoacer
Not seen as a turning points by contemporaries: alternative dates
410: Sack of Roman
439: Conquest of Africa by the ‘Vandals’ (cut off grain supply to Rome)



Turning points change all the time. People from years ago would see different things
as ‘turning points’ as we do nowadays

Beginning of the middle ages?
● West: Continuity of rupture? The survival of Roman Culture
● East: the transformation of the Byzantine Empire and renovato imperii
Justinian
● Mediterranean: The Islamic conquest: ‘Mohammed and Charlemagne’. Is
often seen as a border right now. But in the middle ages it was not seen as a
border.
● Discontinuity: de-urbanisation and declining literacy

Charlemagne (800) = Karel de grote ​: Roman Emperor or Father of Europe?

Legacies East Roman Empire​ = Aya Sophia Istanbul / Moscow as Third Rome

The appropriation of the Roman Legacy:
1. The ideal of Empire
2. Roman law: the legal unity of Europe
3. The catholic church (language, administration and clothing)
4. Cities
5. Criticism: J. Goody: The invention of antiquity & a balance.
! The questions for the text are not assignments but you can use them to read and
understand the text

, Hoorcollege 2 | 10 sep. 2019 Modern renaissance & Reformation (1200-1550)


The Sixteenth century: Many people believed different religions could not go together
because it was a very religious century. It was a century with a lot of violence and
wars.

Periodisation 1500-1800: problems
- Concept ‘Early Modern Europe’ : Foundation of
(secular, individual Europe of territorial state)
(19th century historians): criticism but still widely
used
- Alternative (social-economic) periodisation 1000-
1800 (1500 not a rupture: continuation agricultural
-commercial society until 19th (16th not a turning
point?) The 16th century didn’t brought modernity, it was the middle ages. (12th or
13th century), because at that time the whole society changes from agricultural to
urbanisation.
- Robert Bartlett: periode 950-1350: ‘The making
of Europe’: prelude later colonialism?



What a turning point is depends on your perspectives

1000-1300: Expansion Europe
● Population growth (40 million (1000) – 80 million (1300) and growth
agricultural production
● Commercial capitalism and growth cities
● Growing literacy (Universities, (Re)introduction Roman Law)
● Ambitions Catholic Church and clerical reforms
● Feudal revolution and Early State formation
● Internal and external colonisation: frontier society

Latin expansion/ colonisation in the Balticum: ​Teutonic knights
→ crusades. For expansion, growth. Not only to free the holy land

We see a continuity of crusading to israel holy land and later to the extra European
land
Knights Templar (Tomar): from European crusades to extra- European colonisation

Opposite view: some things did change in 16th century.
