Monastery education
When people mention monasteries, the first thing that comes to mind is priests and loyal believers. But in medieval Europe, the Christian church was the center of economic development, political rights and cultural education in Europe at that time. Moreover, most westerners believe in God, so monasteries were the places people yearned for at that time. After a long period of accumulation and precipitation, the monastery has evolved into its own unique culture, and has become a university place for a time, providing students with a large number of literary materials and teaching environment.

First, the monastery became a university place. In the Middle Ages in Europe, university places were very simple, and students sometimes taught in teachers' homes or in the open air, which was very casual, and monasteries appeared in front of everyone. At that time, people worshipped God very much, and everyone was a Christian, so people worshipped the church even more. Moreover, temples have been built in the town, and the facilities in the hospital are also perfect. Secondly, the environment of the monastery is very quiet, which is very suitable for students to study and teach here.

Second, monasteries provide good teachers for universities. In addition to perfect facilities and quiet learning environment, monasteries also provide a large number of good teachers for universities. There is a rule in the monastery that prayers must be said after meals every day, so people who read the Bible will be specially sent to explain the Bible to everyone. In this way, believers are gradually influenced and tempered by culture, gradually improve their literary literacy, and have their own methods of communication and interpretation. Then he naturally became a university lecturer. Due to the special status of monasteries, these lecturers became very few talents in this society at that time, thus providing very good services for universities.

In medieval Europe, the major of monasteries was seven arts, so the talents who came out of monasteries had a good educational function, although they could not get rid of religious colors. In addition, the facilities and environment in the courtyard are very suitable for study, so the monastery becomes a university place. These are actually closely related to the background of the times at that time. In medieval Europe, Christianity had a great influence on society. At that time, the whole society needed talents to serve the Christian cause, so this phenomenon was also the general trend of society.
