An Authoratative history of the middle ages in Europe. In 1100
Europe was open in boundaries, faith and outlook. By the middle of
the 14th century it was closed - by Mongol and Turkish invasions,
by the rift with Byzantium, by the intollerant dogmatism of the
church. Friedrich Heer's tour de Force of scholarship and
orginality recreates that world: the daily life of aristocrats and
peasants, town dwellers and countryfolk; the growth of serfdom and
the flowering of chivalry; the roles of cleric and courtier,
painter and poet, King and Philosopher. In it we can see our own
world in embryo. As Professor Heer writes: History is the present,
the present is history'
