Week of May 6, 2013

CE week 4-4 is due by this Friday

This week we will catch up in the class with the homework

We begin the week  looking at how William the Conqueror became King of England in 1066 and the rise of national monarchies in the High Middle Ages.
We also study the often misunderstood religion of Islam, the role of the prophet Mohammed, and the impact of Islam on medieval Europe and the Renaissance.
