Western European universities in the Middle Ages came into being under the background of Renaissance in12nd century. Some historians call this period the "romantic era" because the emergence of civilization, the development of universities and the rise of cities and all walks of life all came into being during this period.

The formation of medieval universities in western Europe broke the monopoly of church education, changed the western education system, formed a class of professional intellectuals who dominated western culture, and trained a large number of administrators, lawyers and popes who managed churches and countries. It has shaped the thinking mode of European reasoning and formed an immortal academic tradition in the West.

Logical starting point

The logical starting point of education is naturally the emergence of human society. The transformation from apes to humans is due to productive labor, and apes gradually formed a main mechanism with brain and hand as the core. The brain can think and the hands can operate, which makes people different from ordinary animals and become "advanced animals".

With the subject mechanism, it is possible to become a subject with practical cognitive ability, and human beings can upgrade themselves to the subject of understanding and transforming the objective world, thus turning the objective world into the object of human transformation and understanding. Understanding and transforming the objective world requires subjective ability. Human society is a form of existence created by human beings in social practice.
