this post will self-destruct [with the help of cami] in 1 and a half hours...
quotes:
1. said by francesco balducci pegolotti. shows he has good and strong relations with the merchants of other lands, has been to many other regions, traveled a lot, etc.
2. thomas celano talking about st. francis. the quote is from st. francis though. get it? Thomas Celano recorded it down, but it was said by St. Francis! shows beliefs of christians, that christ is in every person, if you curse a person, you are also cursing christ. (yay i like this one!)
3. gregory VII's writing, lists some of the claims of the pope, shows that the pope has a lot of power and a lot of respect (this one is short, but really easy to bs if you read the quote)
4. from the speech of Robert the monk, shows that the city is in sin, and it is the enemy of christ, but it is able to be ridden of its sins if they make pilgrimages to Christ (not sure if this is correct, at all.)
5. also from frome thomas celano, illustrates the personality to St. francis. shows that st. francis was extremely devoted to God and didn't pay much attention to the world


connections:
1. The church officials and the government had disputes about whom would appoint church officials, some people who despised the clergy, and those people formed separate groups, Cathars was one of the groups that promoted alternate religious movements
2. guilds were mostly controlling the economic affairs of the region... soon there became academic guilds and these guilds helped turned cathedral schools into universities
3. scholastics tried to merged christian beliefs with greek logic. led to different groups and the crusades were holy wars, attempting to win back these groups into christianity
4. scandinavian seafarers went to vinland to start a colony, they failed because it wasn't possible to sustain with the stormy seas of the north atlantic ocean. norman warriors and other seatravelers returned to sicily and settled there under a christian region

DONE! don't take word for word, if there are typos, so what. i saved you guys about .... 30 minutes of work. you better hug me tomorrow when you see me!
