Using artifacts as primary sources, this book enables students to
comprehensively assess and analyze historic evidence in the context
of the medieval period. This new addition to the Daily Life through
Artifacts series provides not only the full benefit of a reference
work with its comprehensive explanations and primary sources, but
also supplies images of the objects, bringing a particular aspect
of the medieval world to life. Each entry in Artifacts from
Medieval Europe explains and expands upon the cultural significance
of the artifact depicted. Artifacts are divided into such thematic
categories as domestic life, religion, and transportation.
Considered collectively, the various artifacts provide a composite
look at daily life in the Middle Ages. Unlike medieval history
encyclopedias that feature brief reference entries, this book uses
artifacts to examine major aspects of daily life. Each artifact
entry features an introduction, a description, an examination of
its contextual significance, and a list of further resources. This
approach trains students how to best analyze primary sources.
General readers with an interest in history will also benefit from
this approach to learning that enables a more complete appreciation
of past events and circumstances. Provides a single-volume resource
for using medieval artifacts to better understand the long-ago past
Supplies images of artifacts with detailed descriptions,
explanations of significance, and a list of sources for more
information, which help students learn how to effectively analyze
primary sources Presents a virtual window into many different
aspects of medieval society and life, including particular
activities or roles-such as farming, weaving, fashion, or being a
mason or a knight Includes sidebars within selected entries that
explain key terms and concepts and supply excerpts from
contemporary sources
