论12世纪西欧文化复兴运动

On the 12th Century Renaissance in Western Europe

欧洲12世纪文艺复兴是“加洛林文艺复兴”之后的另一次基督教文化复兴运动。与加洛林文艺复兴目的为当时的封建制度构建基督教文化基础的作用不同,此次文艺复兴则是要为封建制度的巩固和发展建立完整的基督教思想文化体系。12世纪西欧的文艺复兴带来了基督教文化的高度繁荣,出现了一大批著名的基督教文化学者和学术流派。可以说,欧洲希腊罗马传统的古典文化发展到近代的14世纪的文艺复兴之间,是经过了加洛林文化复兴,特别是12世纪的文化复兴的两次大的准备才到来的。

The 12th century renaissance in Western Europe was a revival movement of Christian culture which took place after Carolus renaissance. Different from Carolus renaissance, which aimed to construct the foundation of Christian culture for mediaeval system, the 12th century renaissance aimed to establish an integral system of Christian culture for strenghtening mediaeval system and the development of it. The 12th century renaissance in Western Europe gave rise to prosperity of Christian culture. As a result, a lot of scholars and academic schools of Christian culture emerged at that time. So we can say that Carolus renaissance and the 12th century renaissance, especially the later, played a very important role in the development of European culture in the process of transfering from classical culture of ancient Greece and Rome into the 14th century renaissance.
