  • The Great Western Schism?
    For what doth it profit a man, if he gain the whole world, and suffer the loss of his own soul? Or what exchange shall a man give for his soul?

  • Prof van Pastor's History Of The Popes From The Close Of The Middles Ages begins just after condemnation of Knights Templar-- 1313. He gives us only the briefest sketch of Clem V.

    The late middle ages would refer to the years up to the Plague(1438) -- then begins the Renaissance age. :cowboy:

  • I've always felt that the Fall of Constantinople in 1453 was the beginning of the Dark ages of Eastern Europe...


    And possibly the crowning of of Charlemagne on Christmas day by Pope Leo III as Holy Roman Emperor was the beginning of the West emerging from their "middle" ages.

    Also, consider the final expulsion of the Muslims in 1492 from Spain/Portugaul by the Spanish in their Reconquista of the Iberian Peninsula and also the following  expulsion of both Muslims and Jєωs who would not convert to the True Faith within the Christian empires. I would think this, perhaps more than any other date broght an end to the middle ages and the rise of truly Catholic kingdoms  and a golden age.

  • Some have stated that the Renaissance began with the signing of the Magna Carta which began the long road to the ending of the monarchies.
