Bibliography
Includes bibliographical references (pages 357-369) and index.
Description
Includes coverage of all aspects of life in a thousand-year period which saw the creation of western civilization: from the empires and kingdoms of Charlemagne, the Byzantines, and the Hundred Years War, to the ideals of the Crusades; the building of great cathedrals and the social catastrophe of the Black Death; the cultural worlds of chivalric knights, popular festivals, and new art forms. The chapters show the movement of the centre of gravity in European life from the Mediterranean to the north, and the authors explore the contrast between Byzantine and Renaissance cultures in the south and the new, complex political and social structures of northwest Europe, which by 1300 had the most advanced civilization the world had ever seen.
