Extractions: Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... Z The life of this celebrated French writer is full of obscurities. He was born at Chinon in Touraine in 1483, 1490. or 1495. According to some his father was an apothecary, according to others a publican or inn-keeper. He began his studies with the Benedictines and finished them with the Franciscans near Angers. He became a Franciscan in the convent of Gontenay-le-Comte, where he remained fifteen years and received Holy orders. But the spirit of his order not being favourable to the studies then esteemed by the Renaissance Christian and edifying. Rabelais wrote various works, including almanacs, but he was chiefly known for the celebrated romance entitled "La Vie de Gargantua et de Pantagruel". This work comprises four books which appeared from 1532 (or 1533) to 1552; a fifth, the most daring in its ideas, appeared after the death of its author (1562-64); it is not certain that it is his. This history of giants is a chaos wherein are found learning, eloquence, coarse humor, and extravagances. It is impossible to analyse it. Ed. MARTRY-LEVEAUX, Opp. (Paris, 1872); STAFFER, Rabelais (Paris, 1889).

Alcoholic Drinks Of The Middle Ages - Wine Anonymous Never did a great man hate good wine. Francois Rabelais (Frenchwriter 1483 1553) Mead! Melomel! Metheglyn! Drink of the ancients. http://home.sunlitsurf.com/~mshapiro/cwine.html
Extractions: Wine, as we all know, is the fermented juice of the grape. To some, the term may also include the more generic form of fermented juice of any fruit, though the purists among us would certainly beg to differ. Be that as it may, wine, from grape juice or otherwise, has been made and enjoyed throughout the ages. The following quotes, covering a span of about 2000 years will plainly testify to this. (I feel quite certain that the original authors of these lines would in most cases agree that the same could be said about virtually any form of alcoholic beverage): Mead! Melomel! Metheglyn! Drink of the ancients. Nectar of the gods! By any name, we are still talking about the same beverage, or family of beverages; honey wine and its many varia- tions. The ingredients of a true mead are only two honey and water. This mixture, however, is slow to ferment and also slow to age. Honey lacks the acids and tannins which yeast needs to thrive. There are, however, several ways around this problem. A melomel is a fermented beverage from any fruit juice with the addition of honey. By using a fruit juice base instead of water, many of the required nutrients and acids which honey lacks are supplied by the juice. Several fruits were used so often for this purpose within the period of our study that specific names were developed for melomels made from them. Among these drinks are piment , made from grapes, cyser , made from apples, morath , made from mulberries and perry

The Roman Empire was divided in the third century. The Eastern part of the Empire remained relatively stable and evolved unto the powerful Byzantine and later Islamic Empire. The Western Roman Empire became Christian, began to decline, and eventually fell in the fifth century. This period of collapse can be called the Dark Ages or Middle Ages. During this time a feudal or locally based, self-sufficient manor system emerges. The influence and authority of the Christian church also increased. By the eleventh and twelfth centuries the authority of the Pope in Rome was challenging the growing power of the monarchs or kings. Magnificent cathedrals were built as visual proof of the power of the Church. Monasteries flourished and provided as refuge for the safekeeping of ancient knowledge. These institutions would develop into the first universities by the thirteenth century. During the Middle Ages, the crusades were fought in an effort to conquer the Holy Lands (Israel today) from the Islamic Empire. The population of Europe rose dramatically and the beginnings of the great cities could be seen.
