Study Guide for the Final Exam
Humanities 120

 

        The last exam will be cumulative.  This means that you should review all the material from the first four study guides.  In addition, some of the questions on the final will involve the final unit on the High Middle Ages. 

        In order to review art and architecture, you may want to make sure that you can recognize the periods in which different works of art and architecture were created.  Use these two links to practice:

Review of Architecture

Review of Art

 

Additional Material from Chapter 9

  

I recommend that you review the following:

 

1.   In terms of geography, know the locations of Paris and London.  

2.   There will be less emphasis on the historical developments than has been the case for earlier chapters.  Your review should focus on social structures, religion, theology, literature, music, art, and architecture.

3.   Be sure you can identify the following people:  Chretien de Troyes,  Hildegaard of Bingen, Peter Abelard, Thomas Aquinas, Averroes, Thomas Malory, Dante, Suger, Guido of Arezzo, Geoffrey Chaucer .

4.    Be sure you know the cultural terms listed at the end of the chapters.  Emphasize: chivalry, friar, cathedral school, vernacular language, minstrel, troubador, flying buttress, rose window, gargoyle, lay, Gregorian chant.

5.   Again, there may be some questions taken from the web site, but many of the web questions emphasize historical material that won’t be included.

6.    In terms of literature, review the selections from Arthurian Romances, The Divine Comcdy,  Scivias, and The Canterbury Tales.  

7.   Be able to recognize and name the Speyer Cathedral as an example of the Romanesque style, the Cathedral of Notre Dame as an example of the Early Gothic style, and the Amiens Cathedral as an example of the High Gothic style.
