"The actual past - the actual lived human past - in every time and place (the middle ages is only one example), was almost always way more complex, messy and difficult to generalize about than the way in which it is usually portrayed in popular images, or the way it is depicted in text books, whether those depictions and images are positive or negative."
This talk was given on September 30, 2021 at the University of Kansas.
About the speaker:
Brad S. Gregory is Professor of History and Dorothy G. Griffin Collegiate Chair at the University of Notre Dame, where he has taught since 2003, and where he is also the Director of the Notre Dame Institute for Advanced Study. From 1996-2003 he taught at Stanford University, where he received early tenure in 2001. He specializes in the history of Christianity in Europe during the Reformation era and on the long-term influence of the Reformation era on the modern world. He has given invited lectures at many of the most prestigious universities in North America, as well as in England, Scotland, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Germany, Belgium, The Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Israel, Taiwan, Australia, and New Zealand. Before teaching at Stanford, he earned his Ph.D. in history at Princeton University and was a Junior Fellow in the Harvard Society of Fellows; he also has two degrees in philosophy from the Catholic University of Louvain, Belgium. His first book, Salvation at Stake: Christian Martyrdom in Early Modern Europe (Harvard, 1999) received six book awards. Professor Gregory was the recipient of two teaching awards at Stanford and has received three more at Notre Dame. In 2005, he was named the inaugural winner of the first annual Hiett Prize in the Humanities, a $50,000 award from the Dallas Institute of Humanities and Culture given to the outstanding midcareer humanities scholar in the United States. His most recent book is entitled The Unintended Reformation: How a Religious Revolution Secularized Society (Belknap, 2012), which received two book awards. His most recent book is entitled Rebel in the Ranks: Martin Luther, the Reformation, and the Conflicts that Continue to Shape Our World (Harper, 2017).

I have read Tom Woods' "How the Catholic Church Built Western Civilization" and found that there was a massive attempt to discredit the Church. I am reading Brad Gregory's "The Unintended Reformation: How a Religious Revolution Secularized Society" and have found the depth of his research and insight exceptional.

Thank you so much for this. I have always found the dismissal of the middle ages intensely frustrating and ignorant.

not to mention the arrogance of the Renaissance and Enlightenment commentators. Its happening today as mellenials and genZ dismiss the efforts of their parents, grandparents and great-grandparents.

Great lecture. When I read The Unintended Reformation, I got the impression that Gregory was presenting precisely the romantic view of the Middle Ages that he describes here. Much less so in Rebel in the Ranks. I am glad I got a clearer position of his position here. His balanced critique of Modernity and the idea of Progress is sobering and much needed. "Shared ideals, imperfectly realized," vs. what he calls "hyperpluralism" in The Unintended Reformation is much to be wished for, but as he points out, how we would put the pieces back together is far from clear.

Among the benefits to be gained by reading Dante's Divine Comedy Is its depiction of the nuance and complexity of medieval existence and of a medieval understanding of the events of the world and the human condition. It can serve as a corrective to both of the simplistic views of this time that professor Gregory debunks here.

I wanna know the scientific progress between the death of Augustine and the rediscovery of Aristotle. Haven’t heard much here about all the amazing progress between the 5th and say 12th centuries. That’s just 7 centuries. Anything?

Thank you very much father. The schoolmen are the best to my understanding the best Scholars. Today I believe the University is more a political indoctrination. then a place of learning. I believe the philosophies of the enlightenment are a detriment to ,today's culture .i believe the two sword theory isn't as barbaric as all that , I think secularism is a lot worse.

In Middle ages it was not any better. Students learned how to quote authorities. Aquinas, Augustine, Aristotle and Plato where worshipped as truthsayers. That ended with Scientific revolution

@@konyvnyelv. Yeah now Einstein, Darwin, Kelvin and such are worshipped as truthsayers. My point with that is not that these great men were not inteligent and great scholars, quite the contrary. Merely that your point is meritless as we still do the same thing under a different discipline. Besides that people such as St.Albert Magnus, St.Hildegard of Bingen, Aristotle, Ptolemy and St.Thomas all did work that was the precursor that built the foundation the scientific revolution was built on. Coming later does not make people better, it just means we get to inherit the accumulated good of the work of more generations past.

Harari’s ideas are the end result of modernism.
