When you read that chapter in K-12, the textbook was no doubt very clear to put the Dark Ages in context of European history... you, and many other students, simply forgot. An elaborate or nuanced name wouldn't have helped retain time/location. To be fair, other regions of the world have never heard of "the Dark Ages". History is too big for the layman to avoid simplification. (although, renaming it "the Lost Ages" seems like it would help clarify things) |
