Screenplays Featuring: ‘Middle Ages’ Era Stories

One of many ‘History’ subgenres.

Neither a ‘mood’ nor a ‘tone,’ these scripts have a specific style of filmmaking that relates to a ‘Primary Genre’ and subgenre.

Scripts under this subgenre feature stories that take place during the era, roughly between the fall of Rome in 476 CE and the beginning of the Renaissance in the 14th century.

Many scholars call the era the ‘medieval period’ instead. ‘Middle Ages,’ they say, incorrectly implies that the period is an insignificant blip sandwiched between two much more important epochs.

Nonetheless, stories may include narratives set during the era, but may not be specific to the time itself.
