Humanitas High & Late Middle Ages Teacher's Guide PDF
Humanitas High & Late Middle Ages Teacher's Guide PDF offers teachers further resources for understanding the texts included in Humanitas High & Late Middle Ages Books 1 and 2.
The guide supplies teachers with:
- lesson objectives and plans
- teacher's tips that point to specific portions of the source document, providing additional context for the source documents and suggesting points of discussion
- additional notes that will help teachers show students how the various source documents relate to each other
- questions for discussion and writing (taken from the student edition)
Unlike most contemporary approaches to history, which reflect the fashions and biases of the fleeting present, the Humanitas series offers students something more substantial. Following C. S. Lewis’s stout defense of reading primary sources in “On the Reading of Old Books,” Humanitas will help “persuade the young that firsthand knowledge is not only more worth acquiring than secondhand knowledge, but it is usually much easier and more delightful to acquire." Geared toward history, humanities, and humane letters courses, the Humanitas series offers a continuous, unfolding narrative of Western Civilization through carefully curated primary source documents.
