Medieval Eastern Europe is the first collection of primary sources
in English translation covering the history of the whole eastern
region of the European continent between 500 and 1300. Florin
Curta, a leading scholar of medieval Eastern Europe, gathers
sources from a geographic area ranging from the Czech lands in the
west to the Ural Mountains in the east, and from northern Russia to
Greece. The collection includes traditional narrative sources, such
as chronicles and annals, as well as treaties, charters, letters,
and legal texts. Each primary source is preceded by a brief
introduction and followed by guiding questions. Organized
chronologically into thematic chapters, the selections touch upon a
wide variety of topics, including political developments;
conversion to Christianity, Islam, and Judaism; economic and social
issues; literature; laws; religious beliefs and practices; and much
more.
