Dictionaries and encyclopedias on this era proliferate. This volume aims “to provide both the beginner and the specialist with a single volume that presents a summary of current thought on the key protagonists, events and themes” in European history from c.400 to c.1500. The beginner will find about 1000 useful entries, strong on England and France, weak on Spain, Central and Eastern Europe; able on political but weak on social history (e.g., no entry on the family or on marriage).
Книга обновляет и пересматривает традиционные представления о Средневековье, сосредотачиваясь на политике, в частности, Северной Европы, при этом детально рассматривая средневековое общество Средиземноморья. Книга адресована студентам, изучающим средневековую историю, историю Западной цивилизации, историю Христианства и мусульмано-христианских отношений. Также послужит превосходным дополнением для курсов по истории конкретной страны в период Средневековья, истории средневекового искусства или европейской экономики.
The Worlds of Medieval Europe updates and revises traditional textbook representations of the Middle Ages by balancing the conventional focus on political affairs, especially those of northern Europe, with equally detailed attention to medieval society as it developed in the Mediterranean. The result is a nuanced portrayal of a multifarious western world that was sharply divided between its northern and southern aspects.
