The Middle Ages are the birthplace of European civilization. It's no coincidence that European culture as a coherent organism emerged during the Middle Ages, a period of contrasts. The Age of Chivalry, a time of great scholars and learning, but also a time of witch hunts, great wars and victories, including the Crusades and the Hundred Years' War, the Black Death, and the rise of feudalism—these are all facets of the Middle Ages. According to scholars, the crowning achievement of the Middle Ages was the establishment of unified nation-states in most European countries, the transformation of the Renaissance into a pan-European cultural phenomenon, the beginning of the Reformation, and the rise of capitalist relations.
In this book, we will travel the path from the 5th to the 16th centuries—through the Early Middle Ages, the High Middle Ages, and the Late Middle Ages—from the fall of the Western Roman Empire and the Arab conquests to the turn of the 15th and 16th centuries, the beginning of the Age of Discovery, which marked the transition from global to global history.
This publication is a unique chronological overview of all aspects of this fascinating era. Politics, dynasties, wars, religion, art, and everyday life, as well as portraits of such outstanding figures as Francis of Assisi, Joan of Arc, and Richard the Lionheart—all these are captured in this chronograph.
Illustrated with magnificent medieval paintings, maps, and miniatures, this atlas will be an indispensable resource for anyone interested in this fascinating period in human history.
