Please sign in so that we can notify you about a reply
The millennium, which has passed since the collapse of the Roman Empire before the beginning of the Reformation, was saturated with transformations, and therefore it is not so easy to describe within the framework of one book. Nevertheless, the British historian Chris Wickham accepted this challenge. He shows the Middle Ages as a dynamic period of large -scale changes, focusing on such iconic events as the fall of Rome, the reform of Charles the Great, the spread of Christianity in Europe, the sunset of the Byzantine empire, the epidemic of black death, etc. Analyzing them, the author tells what changes they caused in the social, economic and political spheres, as well as in the private life of people. Before the reader"s eyes, a panoramic picture of the life of states and cities of medieval Europe unfolds, a gallery of images of emperors, kings, church figures, knights, peasants, merchants. This eventful and excitingly written analytical work will be interesting to both specialists and those who turn to the Middle Ages for the first time
