Question:
Based on most recent lectures, what are two ways that the Middle Ages can be viewed as a time of progress, innovation, and greatness? Your two examples should be coming from two of the four categories we just studied (“Economy and Society,” “The Emerging Western States,” “The Church and Christianity,” and “Culture and Society”); they should not both come from the same category.

Look at the document (reading) I uploaded.
One of the progress I chose is the agricultural innovations.
Second, Learning: Universities.
You may just read the notes and directly write the answer from there, no need to make it very complicated. As you write, make sure you write the purpose behind it and why these can be viewed as time of progress, innovation, and greatness. Also, try to write mostly based on the reading I uploaded. Thank you
