It wasn't so much learning but the structure of society. When Rome fell in 410 AD with them went the framework of government, protection from an army, the civil servants who made sure the roads were kept up and the engineers who built the buildings. Society was in chaos and it was every person for themselves. Villages and farms were raided and people killed and one reason feudalism took hold was that it provided a means of protection. When people revert to a society where they are trying to survive learning to read and write takes a back seat. The Catholic church and the feudal lords also promoted superstition compared to science. Ignorant people are easier to control than educated people.

Why was the Middle Ages known as barbaric?
"Barbaric" is a term that has been romanticised to infer the primitive and brutal nature of life and warfare during the Middle Ages (ca. 5th to 15th centuries) The term can also relate the the loosely coined "Barbarians", which was given to tribes and people outside the Roman Empire prior to the onset of the Middle Ages. As the rapid expansion of the Roman Empire and the influx of foreigners (i.e. barbarians) into the Roman lands were responsible for the demise of the the Empire, it could be another reason why the Middle Ages are labelled as 'barbaric'. It is however, not appropriate to label the entire Middle Ages period as barbaric as there very many discoveries and occurrences during this time that were very civilised and eminent and far from the stereotypical and contemporary definition of barbaric.
