High and Late Middle Ages

This week we will look at Europe in the late Middle Ages.
We will examine the growth in royal power, the changes in the Church's power, and the results of crises.  How did the Crusades change Europe?  What were the effects of the Bubonic Plague?  What advances in culture and learning were made in the late Middle Ages?

Be sure to read and take notes on pages 58 to 92.  The power point will help to focus your notes.
