Gothic flourishes in the second half of the XII century and comes till the Renaissance (in Italy until the XV century). It was born in northern France, and little by little was spreading and imposing itself on Romanesque. It is called so by the Goths, as a derogatory term. The Renaissance people named them with the term of Goth due that they wanted to come back to the roman classicism. Gothic is consecuence of the new society with economic prosperity and the bourgeoisie. In XIII century, Francisco of Asis establishes the franciscans and Saint Domingo establishes the dominics. They are two mendicant orders, who lived in poverty. The monastic orders were lost in nature, in monasteries. There were epidemics of plague, famines and wars. Introduction: Map, Concepts (8).
