Answer 2

The correct answers are the following

If you wrote an essay about late medieval Europe, in a paragraph about which topic would you most likely refer to Avignon?

The correct answer is C) papal rivalry.

In 1309, Pope Clement had to move to Avignon, France, due to the social pressures he experienced in Rome. From 1309 to 1378, the Popes that lived in Avignon were Clement V, John XXII, Benedict XII,  Clement VI, Innocent VI, Urban V, and Gregory XI.

Which of the following was the significance of the emergence of a vernacular language in medieval Europe?

The correct answer is C) it suggested a new interest in ordinary people and the stories that entertained and educated them.

During the Middle Ages in Europe, Latin was not the preferred language of the common people. They started to prefer stories about heroes, and adventures. This vernacular language formed from everyday interaction of people in common things.
