| The Late Middle Ages | comment |
Pretty much the entire Fourteenth and Fifteenth Centuries, though in southern Europe this overlaps with the early phase of The Renaissance. This is the period where chivalry, aristocrats, and feudal levies (basically serfs drafted to fight) are becoming less important in war (replaced with mercenaries, longbowmen, and later on, gunpowder and cannons), and Macchiavellian nobles are killing off kings, queens, peasants, and each other with gusto (especially if they happen to be relatives), with recurrences of the Great Famine of 1315–1317 and The Plague generally finishing off any survivors. This is the age of the Dance of Death, The Hundred Years War, the Wars of the Roses, The Spanish Inquisition, the early witchcraft trials, and the vivid, and sometimes surreal paintings of Hieronymus Bosch. The printing press made it easier to spread ideas and learning and Europeans developed new trading routes (Christopher Columbus to the Americas and Vasco da Gama to Africa and India) which boosted European wealth and enabled new sources of resources. Even after all the famine and plague deaths, urban areas grew in importance as places for scholarship, trading and government. By 1500, cities like Venice, Paris and Constantinople each had 100,000+ people. It just got as dark and edgy as Dark Age Europe again. Still, a common feature of fiction will be an idealistic character who looks forward to a day when society has left all this medieval darkness behind. (This character often gets killed.) We can blame most of these attitudes on the Renaissance, and even more on the Enlightenment when the whole "people who came before us were really stupid" thing really started up. The typical clothing will include ornate hats, often of disturbingly complicated structure, and surprisingly low necklines among the women; among the men, yards and yards of cloth in the sleeves and disturbingly high hemlines (Women's hemlines won't rise up until several centuries later). Both generously include lots of fur and velvet, at least among the nobility — and lots of dirt, at least among the peasants. Splotches of blood are a not infrequent addition for both. Outside certain aspects of the Renaissance, this is generally not regarded as a happy time — and even that period tends to be darkened by poisoning Popes, manipulating, scheming courtesans, and murderous feuds among the noble clans. |

The frame story of The Decameron is set during the Plague, and was written during this period, so it is very much of this era. However, the stories the brigata tells are uniformly set before the Plague, although they vary wildly in time period (most seem to be set in The High Middle Ages, but there are some stories set in ancient Rome or Greece, as well.) | |

Medieval: Total War and its remake deal with this period (as well as the rest of the Middle Ages). The late period is characterized by combat with heavily armored units, but also with gunpowder and early cannons - and prompts some factions to begin thinking of crossing the Atlantic Ocean. | |

Il Était Une Fois... dedicates its thirteenth episode to The Hundred Years War, and logically includes Joan of Arc. It shows her at first as a long-haired peasant girl who introduces herself to the nobles and the Dauphin, then as a short-haired Lady of War adored by the crowds, at the coronation of Charles VII... and at her execution. | |
