As a matter of fact, the people who are looked down upon by history, (38)aside from not having good leadership skills, often were the ones with poor memories.
The use of memory(39)techniques reached its summit in the Middle Ages. People in the Middle Ages were crazy about memory systems. It seems to have had a lot to do with the(40)scarcity of paper, but there were other reasons as well. (41)Complicated systems in religion, law, government, business, and what we would nowadays call " media" were developing. In short, there was a lot to memorize. Everything in European culture of the time reflected people’s efforts to organize information in their heads.
