Which groups fought with each other during the Crusades?

The crusades happened during medieval times. The Pope of the time (Urban II) called on all Christians to fight a war against the Turks and were promised immediate remission of their sins upon death. The official reason for the first crusade is that the Pope wanted to help the Byzantine Emperor defend his Kingdom against invading Turks. Though it is argued that the Pope had the hidden agenda of taking back the "Holy land" from the Muslims.


What is humanism and when did it take place?

Humanism is a cultural and intellectual movement that emerged during the Renaissance, roughly from the 14th to the 17th centuries. It emphasized the value of human beings, the study of classical texts, and the importance of reason and individualism. Humanists advocated for a focus on education, ethics, and the potential for human achievement, contrasting with the medieval emphasis on religious dogma. This movement laid the groundwork for modern Western thought, influencing art, literature, science, and philosophy.


Who was considered to be a bridge between the scholastic though of the medieval period and the Renaissance?

Thomas Aquinas is often considered a bridge between the scholastic thought of the medieval period and the Renaissance. His synthesis of Aristotelian philosophy with Christian theology laid the groundwork for later humanist thinkers. Aquinas emphasized reason and empirical observation, which became central themes in Renaissance thought, facilitating a shift towards humanism and individualism. His work influenced both the theological and philosophical landscapes that characterized the transition to the Renaissance.


Why was the word medieval first used in 500 ad?

Actually, the Latin equivalent of Middle Ages, which became "medieval" in English, was first used in the Late Middle Ages, which regarded itself as the modern age. The period of 500 to 1000 was seen as a middle period between ancient and more modern ages of reason, art, and enlightenment. The reason the year 500 or a somewhat earlier date was chosen (410 AD, 476 AD, etc.) is that the West Roman Empire fell apart at the time, and was taken over by a number of Germanic kingdoms. This supposedly began an era of darkness and illiteracy, though that period was already underway and was more a cause than an effect.
