12th century: Encyclopedia II - Renaissance of the 12th century - Context

The key historical trend of the High Middle Ages was the rapidly increasing population of Europe, which brought about great social and political change from the preceding era. From about the year 1000 onwards, Western Europe saw the last of the barbarian invasions and became more politically organized. With the brief exception of the Mongol incursions, major barbarian invasions ceased. In the 11th century, populations north of the Alps began to settle new lands, some of which had reverted to wilderness after the end of the Roman Empire. In w ...

12th century: Encyclopedia II - Árpáds - 12th century

Finally in 1108, peace was made between the two brothers, but Coloman violated it and had Almos (and his son Béla) blinded and imprisoned in 1108 or 1109 to prevent him from becoming the future king. This act also marks the end of the Nitrian Frontier Duchy and thus a full integration of the territory of Slovakia into Hungary. Coloman's childless son, Stephen II was engaged in a number of unnecessary wars (1116 Bohemia, 1123 Russia, 1127-29 Byzantium). He appointed Béla II the Blind (1131-41, see above) his successor. However Boris, ...

12th century: Encyclopedia - Arameans

The Aramaeans, or Arameans, were a Semitic, seminomadic and pastoralist people who originated and had lived in upper Mesopotamia and Syria. Aramaeans have never had a unified empire; they were divided in independent kingdoms all across the Near East. Yet to these Aramaeans befell the privilege of imposing their language and culture upon the entire Near East and beyond. Scholars even have used the term 'Aramaization' for the Syro-Mesopotamian peoples, languages and cultures that have been made 'Aramean'. Arameans - ...

12th century: Encyclopedia II - Pronoia - Pronoia in the 12th Century

Alexius' grandson Manuel I Comnenus continued to grant land to the aristocrats, but also extended pronoiai to aristocratic officers in the army, in place of giving them a regular salary. Pronoiai developed into essentially a license to tax the citizens who lived within the boundaries of the grant (the paroikoi). Pronoiars (those who had been granted a pronoia) became something like tax collectors, who were allowed to keep some of the revenue they collected. This idea was not completely new; centuries before, Heraclius had reorganized the emp ...

12th century: Encyclopedia II - Examples of feudalism - 12th century England

Feudalism in 12th century England was among the better structured and established in Europe at the time. However, it could be structurally complex, which is illustrated by the example of the barony of Stafford as described in a survey of knight's fees called The Black Book Exchequer (A.D 1166). Feudalism is the exchange of land for military service, thus everything was based on what was called the knight's fee, which was the amount of money and/or military service a fief was required to pay to support one knight. Thus, either a fief could provide the service of a knight, or a ...

Attributed to French clergyman Alexandre de Bernay (also known as Alexandre de Pâris), the Roman d'Alexandre (Li romans d'Alixandre) is based on the translations of various episodes of the conqueror's life as composed by previous poets (Lambert de Tort, Eustache and more importantly Albéric of Besancon).
