This volume by the British historian J.H.B. Masterman (1867-1933) is a short survey of the first four centuries after the fall of Rome. The author writes of Theodoric, King of the Ostrogoths, who sought to impose order on a shattered Italy, of the rise of the Franks under Clovis, and of the resurgence of the Eastern Empire under Justinian and his general, Belisarius. At the close of the book, Charlemagne's descendants are wrangling for power among themselves, while, writes Masterman, from 'the north came the Norsemen, ravaging and plundering along every river valley which their long ships could sail; from the south came the Saracens, the pirates of the Mediterranean, and ... a foe more fierce and implacable still appeared on the eastern frontier in the Magyars or Hungarians.' - Summary by Pamela Nagami

No wonder no real advancements happens during this long period. Men bent on power, wealth, and vengeance. What’s new ?
That is not really true, listen to this lecture of Professor Roy

.... LIKE TODAY..NOW!.. THE WORLD OVER!.. THE GAME OF.. " 1st TO BLINK IS A..." .. 🤫
I particularity enjoyed, (though not in an entirely good way,) the passage where, whilst fully acknowledging that The Donation of Constantine is, ("is almost certainly," in the author's words, as if there was some room for doubt,) certainly a crude forgery that somehow that fact doesn't really matter regarding the legitimacy of it's content; this conclusion is achieved by some very bazaar reasoning indeed.
I'm still thoroughly enjoying it though for all that it's dated, (but not outdated,) and so obviously biased.
"As a dog returns to it's vomit so did they return to paganism that they had afore times repudiated ?"
Once again I can't help sensing a there's certain subtle perhaps an almost imperceptible bias here ?
I'm pretty sure that's a chronicle and not Masterman talking, if it matters.
thats life suck it up !
Paganism is like vomit
Juicy

Surely not the first. It's a human instinct to shut down dissent. It's an extreme rarity to reject this personally and societally.
