The fourteenth and fifteenth centuries were times of tumultuous
change in medieval Europe; they witnessed the Black Death, the
Great Papal Schism, heightened fears of the apocalypse, and the
elimination of Spain's non-Christian population. Few figures were
as widely and as intimately involved in late medieval Europe's
struggles as Saint Vincent Ferrer. Perhaps the foremost preacher of
his day, Ferrer spent the final two decades of his life traversing
Europe, preparing the world for its imminent destruction. Saint
Vincent Ferrer (d. 1419), His World and Life reassesses the
controversial preacher's motives, methods, and impact, tracing
Ferrer's journey from obscure logician to angel of the apocalypse,
as he came to be known. At the same time, the book offers new
insights into the depth and breadth of late medieval apocalyptic
anticipation, and into the processes that ultimately led to the
expulsions of Spain's Jews and Muslims.
