Apocalypse and Reform from Late Antiquity to the Middle Ages
provides a range of perspectives on what reformist apocalypticism
meant for the formation of Medieval Europe, from the Fall of Rome
to the twelfth century. It explores and challenges accepted
narratives about both the development of apocalyptic thought and
the way it intersected with cultures of reform to influence major
transformations in the medieval world. Bringing together a wealth
of knowledge from academics in Britain, Europe and the USA this
book offers the latest scholarship in apocalypse studies. It
consolidates a paradigm shift, away from seeing apocalypse as a
radical force for a suppressed minority, and towards a fuller
understanding of apocalypse as a mainstream cultural force in
history. Together, the chapters and case studies capture and
contextualise the variety of ideas present across Europe in the
Middle Ages and set out points for further comparative study of
apocalypse across time and space. Offering new perspectives on what
ideas of 'reform' and 'apocalypse' meant in Medieval Europe,
Apocalypse and Reform from Late Antiquity to the Middle Ages
provides students with the ideal introduction to the study of
apocalypse during this period.
