In this episode, Shane hears from Dustin Warren, a Highlands Latin School European History teacher, about the top 5 forgotten Middle Ages moments. The Middle Ages, or “The Great Middle” as Dustin says, is a time in history that many are unfamiliar with. In Classical Education, we as educators talk a lot about the Middle Ages because, in some ways, we’re reviving a form of education that was at its peak in terms of formal institutions during the Middle Ages. And, although the culture and setting of the Middle Ages is far from what we experience today, stories from the Middle Ages generate interest in a Classical setting.
