De Troyes/Knight of the Lion & Individualism
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that discusses individualism in De Troyes' The Knight of the Lion and in the twelfth century in general. The process of cultural evolution that eventually resulted in a societal emphasis on the rights, concerns and needs of the individual did not occur spontaneously, but rather began to emerge during the Middle Ages. In the twelfth century, Western society evolved a "new level of self-awareness," which manifested itself as greater "concern for the inner life" than was expressed in previous medieval eras (Kramer 18). At this time, a new sense of individualism can be seen in the literature of the period, such as the romances of Chretien de Troyes and his tale of The Knight of the Lion. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Frederick Barbarossa in Italy
[ send me this paper ]
A 9 page research paper that addresses the significance of terrain in Frederick Barbarossa's Italian campaigns. When Frederick I, known as Frederick Barbarossa, became Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, his primary mission was to restore the Empire to the exalted position it held under Charlemagne and Otto I (Frederick I). This entailed, first of all, establishing order in Germany, but also asserting his imperial rights in Italy (Frederick I). In all, Frederick undertook six expeditions into Italy. Frederick's uncle, Otto of Freising, authored an extensive account of Frederick's various military campaigns. However, Otto died after writing the first two books, leaving the last two to his provost, Rahewin (Frederick I). Referring to this account, this discussion explores the question of to what extent Frederick was able to overcome the physical terrain of the Italian peninsula. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
