The Greek Dark Ages Started in 1600 B.C. and ended in 1100 B.C. This is the period of time the Greeks left behind no written evidence or artifacts.

There is a scene in The Horse and His Boy‚ one of C. S. Lewis’ Narnia chronicles‚ in which the fugitive‚ Aravis‚ explains why she fled her homeland.

In the 1300s a scholar named Petrarch created the term "Dark Ages" for what happened in this period. I do not believe it should be called the dark ages. The term dark ages did not describe the whole time period‚ but only a part of it. I believe the monks kept the light of the Romans to protect.

All The Pretty Horses Response I really enjoyed reading All The Pretty Horses by Cormac McCarthy. I personally read it as a novel about a young boy’s quest for what life is all about as well as a sense of belonging‚ which is why I was surprised that even though he returns home‚ at the end of the novel‚ he soon leaves to continue West.

Diction The phrase “cave-dark closet” used to identify the narrator’s hiding place for her cherry bomb and “locked diary” conveys the narrator’s belief that the hiding place that guarded her treasures held a mysterious and mystical aura.
