启蒙时代曾带给我们一种很深的误解,那就是将所谓的“中世纪”看作欧洲历史的中断或逸出。启蒙思想家将欧洲历史归之于希腊理性精神的历史,文艺复兴就是恢复被中世纪中断的历史,它上接古希腊罗马理性时代而下开近代科学理性时代,中世纪作为“黑暗的时代”仅仅是被跳过的时代。于是,中世纪逐渐被人们所遗忘。 The Age of Enlightenment has given us a very deep misunderstanding that the so-called “Middle Ages” is seen as the interruption or escape of European history. The Enlightenment thinkers attributed European history to the history of the Greek rational spirit. The Renaissance was the restoration of the history interrupted by the Middle Ages. It took on the era of modern science and science under the aegis of the Hellenistic Rome and Rome. The Middle Ages, as the “era of darkness” Skip the era. As a result, the Middle Ages were gradually forgotten by people.
