	§1. Fifteenth century changes in vocabulary. XX. The Language from Chaucer to Shakespeare. Vol. 3. Renascence and ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The increasing importance of the vernacular in the fifteenth century was due, in part, to the growing sense of nationality under Edward III.
		French words had been borrowed during the preceding centuries, when Anglo-French represented the language of the official and governing classes; but, in the fifteenth century, as a result of different social and literary influences, the borrowings were mainly of the Parisian or Picardian type, and their use became more marked than ever.
		Already, in the first half of this century, a change is visible; in Lydgate, for instance, abstract words of Romance origin are being substituted for Chaucer’s concrete native terms, 3 and the proportion of this foreign element steadily increased as the century advanced.

	Religion in Ireland During the Fifteenth Century @ ELCore.Net
		As a result even in the thirteenth century, when capitular election was still the rule, the English sovereigns sought to exercise a controlling influence on episcopal elections in Ireland, but they met at times with a vigorous resistance from the chapters, the bishops, the Irish princes, and from Rome.
		Absenteeism was as remarkable a characteristic of the Church in the fifteenth century as it was of the Established Church in the eighteenth, and in this direction the bishops were the worst offenders.
		The latter half of the fourteenth century and particularly the fifteenth century witnessed a great architectural revival in Ireland, during which the pure Gothic of an earlier period was transformed into the vernacular or national composite style.

		In the fifteenth century, it was far from clear which of the three papal courts was legitimate and which of the three ecclesiastics was really pope.
		It appears that so far as the rectory of Cinel Luachain is concerned, the fifteenth century ended as it began, with a rector named Omulmochore - the offspring of unmarried parents (quite likely the son of a previous rector).

		Unlike earlier centuries, the fifteenth was not an age of great chroniclers; no one of the stature of Giraldus Cambrensis in the twelfth century or Matthew Paris in the thirteenth was writing in the fifteenth century.
		These are the documents that have survived the vagaries of the centuries; the historian must work with the materials that are to hand.
		Seventeenth century antiquarians got the documents because William Paston, Earl of Yarmouth, was in debt and sold some of the papers to Peter Le Neve, Norroy King of Arms (3).

	Susan Reed: Fifteenth Century Visual Sources and Costume Research: An Analysis
		For the fifteenth century, surviving garments are so few and so unrepresentative as to be all but useless as a source of study of style change and geographic distribution.
		Fifteenth century art aided these goals through the portrayal of scenes set in contemporary settings and figures in contemporary clothing.
		Given the prevalence of religious art in the fifteenth century, it is fortunate for the costume historian that religious figures are so often portrayed in contemporary clothing.

		Consequently, the late 15th century has remained in relative neglect, and, if addressed at all, it is often within the context of a teleological narrative that more or less necessitates the emergence of Wang Yang-ming.
		By comparing their ideas with those of thinkers of the early 16th century, I argue that, from the late 15th century to the early 16th century, significant changes took place in the Neo-Confucian view of the mind’s relation to the world, notwithstanding an apparent common emphasis on the mind.
		The late fifteenth century saw the emergence of local elites in Guangdong who contributed to the writing of ritual texts and the establishment of shrines and temples.

	Acorn Caps
		The shape was retained for fashionable linen nightcaps to the end of the sixteenth century, although it was no longer part of court attire.
		The four-armed shaping of the crown is not an innovation; the same sort of shaping is found in surviving sixteenth-century men's nightcaps made of linen which have the same shape as the fifteenth-century caps.
		Acorn caps were probably made in a variety of ways during the fifteenth century -- the folds at the crown in some depictions suggest fabric, and felt is also a likely material -- but we know that caps were knitted in the fifteenth century from entries like this one in the French royal accounts:

	Well when was the fifteenth century? \| Samizdata.net
		At the risk of being a smart-arse, Brian, your answer: "The fifteenth century means the one hundred years between the year 1400 and the year 1500" is incorrect.
		It is concievable we might have had a Zeroeth Century had zero been invented, but more likely we would still have used First Century to indicate the first 100 years of the Christian era, although we'd have run it from Year 0-99 instead of the confusing 1-100.
		The teacher asked him if he meant what years were in the fifteenth century, and he said that he wanted to know what century it was, not what years.

	Gunpowder Weapons of the Late Fifteenth Century
		Initially the guns were shaped like buckets, wide at the open mouth and narrowed at the rear (where the gunpowder was packed) and a small hole (touchhole) was located for the insertion of a hot wire, or lit coal, to ignite the gunpowder.
		This is a rather typical configuration of bombards of the fifteenth century.
		During the early fifteenth century the pole became shorter and took the form of a stock that rested on the gunner's shoulder, or under his arm.

		All the manuals discussed in this section except the last are in french, and describe the style of basse dance which was popular in France and Burgundy in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth century.
		It has been noted that the choreographies which Arbeau gives for basse dances are included in Arena, which has lead to speculation that Arbeau may have used Arena as a source for a dance which he himself was not completely familiar with.
		He would certainly have had access to Arena, since it was reprinted in many editions over a span of more than two centuries, with the last reprint being about 1758.

		Generally these hoods are either red or fl and are direct descendents of the hoods popular in the fourteenth century.

		As the century progressed, the fl forehead loops associated with atours are sometimes seen worn with hoods.
