The period from the late tenth to the early fourteenth centuries
was one of the most dynamic in European history. Latin Christendom
found a new confidence which has left its mark upon the landscape
in the form of the great cathedrals and castles, while thousands of
new towns and villages were founded. The continent was carved up
into dynastic kingdoms and principalities from which the European
state system would evolve. An age of great religious enthusiasm, it
developed a darker side in the form of the Crusades and the
persecution of heretics and Jews. In this book seven experts in the
field examine how Europe was transformed in the Central Middle
Ages. Thematic chapters analyse the political, social, economic,
religious and intellectual history of Latin Christendom, and trace
its expansion to the north, south and east. As well as many
familiar topics the authors discuss less well known aspects of the
period such as the popular experience of religion or the new
kingdoms of east-central Europe. The book includes a chronology of
developments, a glossary, maps, illustrations and guidance for
further reading.
