Students will draw on both primary and secondary sources to develop their understanding of the unit's themes through Inquiry-based research activities. Students will explore important cross-cultural interactions and exchanges between Europe and its neighbouring civilisations in the Middle Ages, and consider the emergence of 'early modern' Europe in the sixteenth century. The economic, political and cultural expansion of the High Middle Ages will be an important focus, as will the upheavals of the late Middle Ages. In this unit, students examine the slow emergence of a distinctive medieval civilisation in Europe during the centuries following the fall of the Roman Empire, and consider the development of such defining features of the period as social structure, gender relations, manorialism, feudal relations and medieval religion. The thousand-year stretch of European history between 5, known as the 'Middle Ages, ' was a formative period in the development of European government, society and culture that continues to exercise a strong influence on the popular imagination.
