Although I believe that the answer sought by the teacher who questioned him is letter (c), which indicates that there was no scientific and artistic flourishing during the Middle Ages, one must disagree with this. Historians such as Jacque Le Goff deny the idea that the Middle Ages was an obscure age, a "Dark Age," and this conception is now seen as prejudiced.
