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.
