Examining the developments in the political and religious landscape
of Western Europe between the tenth and thirteenth centuries, Power
and Faith explores the origins of dominant nation Sates and
religious institutions in the West emerged out of the fractured and
fragmented post-Carolingian world. As a foundational text for those
new to the period, the book offers a clear chronological framework
for understanding and analysing the emerging polities of Western
Europe and an examination of the influence of the Papacy and the
Crusades across Christian life and culture. Mixed with careful
consideration of major social and economic themes including
urbanisation, rural revolution, and the role of women in politics,
religion, and society, the book gives a uniquely comprehensive
overview of political and religious developments in Western Europe
during a neglected yet fundamentally significant period. The book
is divided into six parts, part one sets out the scope and aims of
the book and discusses the sources used. Parts two and six provide
overviews of the political and religious states of affairs in
Europe at the start and end of the period respectively. Framed by
these sections, the book is divided into three
chronologically-ordered parts each containing three chapters, the
first offers a brief account of the main historiography of the
period concerned, the second provides a thorough account and
analysis of the main political developments across Europe during it
and the third explores the main religious changes. Power and Faith
is an essential introductory guide for students and researchers
interested in politics, religion, and society in Western Europe
during the middle ages.
