Summary: "Schools of Gaul in the Last Century of the Western Empire" by Theodore Haarhoff is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work explores the transitional phase of education in Gaul during the fourth and fifth centuries, focusing on the interplay between pagan and Christian educational practices. It delves into the complex cultural influences at play, as Gaul straddles the worlds of Roman, Celtic, and German societies. At the start of the study, Haarhoff sets the scene by outlining the unique educational landscape of Gaul in the last century of the Western Roman Empire. He notes this period as one of significant cultural transformation, where remnants of the pagan educational tradition coalesce with the emerging Christian values. The author emphasizes the continuity of learning from the Roman era into the emerging medieval structure, outlining how the schools in Gaul became a crucial site for this educational exchange. Through discussions of various influences—including Greek, Celtic, and Germanic—Haarhoff establishes a backdrop that reflects the rich and complex evolution of education during this pivotal time.
