Last week over at Got Medieval, blog owner Carl S. Pyrdum asked readers to describe the medieval period in seven words or less. My seven were as follows:
1) The Church
2) The Nobles
3) The Peasantry
4) The Crusades
5) The Black Death
6) Feudalism
7) Cathedrals (“Gothic” architecture)
In today’s post, Pyrdum unveils the seven most popular results based on reader feedback. Read the post.
I’ll explain why I chose my seven in a later post.
“Black Death” is two words. Okay, just kidding. How about…
1. knights
2. war
3. city-states
4. castles
That’s all I can think of right now.
I guess I should have said seven “concepts” instead of seven words.
