Empire is an evocative, yet little examined, word. It can mean the
domination of vast territories, a Christian world order, a corrupt
form of government, or a humanitarian endeavour. Historians
relegate the concept of empire to the pre-modern world, identifying
the state as the characteristic political form of the modern world.
This book examines the range of meanings attributed to the concept
of empire in the medieval and early modern world, demonstrating how
the concepts of empire and state developed in parallel, not
sequentially.
