The birth of Europe
14.99 €
In this book, Jacques Le Goff, a renowned French scholar and a leading expert in medieval studies, offers his version of the birth of modern Europe, tracing the path from the collapse of the Roman Empire to the beginning of the Great Discovery. According to Jacques Le Goffe, the Middle Ages do not deserve the name "dark" - on the contrary, they were the period when the main features of the Europe we know were formed. It was then that the dynamism that allowed Europeans in the Modern Age to embark on large-scale expansion - military, economic and cultural. The very notion of "Europe" dates back to the Middle Ages - it is already found in documents of the 7th century. Le Goff shows how, through the formation of a spiritual community within the Christian world, this concept was gradually filled with content.
