The early Middle Ages (400-1000) was one of the most dynamic and
crucial periods in the formation of Europe. It covers the
transition from the relatively diverse world of Roman Empire in
late antiquity, to the disparate world of early medieval Europe,
where local differences assumed far greater significance, but
where, nonetheless, the institution of Latin Christianity lent
coherence to the successor states. In this book, Rosamond
McKitterick and five other leading historians have collaborated
closely to produce a set of thematic interpretations covering
politics, society, economy, culture, religion, and Europe and the
wider world. Military matters and warfare are treated within these
chapters, reflecting their entrenchment in social, economic, and
political stuctures. The definition of "Europe" is ambiguous in
this period, but for the most part, it coincides with the
ever-expanding horizons of Latin Christendom. However, this book
also looks at crucial interactions with other areas, such as
Scandinavia, eastern Europe, the Islamic Middle East and North
Africa, and Byzantium.
