At the dawn of the third millennium AD, a widespread expectation of the end times permeated Christendom, fueled by perceived signs and a miscalculation of Christ's birthdate by the church calendar. This anticipation extended for nearly a century, encompassing an additional thirty-three years believed to mark the millennium after his crucifixion. As this extended period of waiting unfolded, Christian Europe underwent a profound transformation, impacting all facets of life. A sense of reconciliation with the world order emerged, potentially signifying a subsiding of divine wrath. This transformation forms the backdrop for what historians term the "twelfth-century Renaissance." Between the millennium of Christ's birth and the early twelfth century, significant shifts occurred in the socio-economic structures of European nations, accompanied by new intellectual and organizational trends, evolving educational methods, and novel approaches to classical heritage integrated with Christian tradition. This intellectual current persisted until the French Revolution in the eighteenth century. This book explores the conflict between tradition and modernity from the Renaissance to the French Revolution, arguing that a global understanding of this dynamic is essential for comprehending tradition and modernism in Iran.
