Download or read book The History of Medieval Europe Classic Reprint written by Lynn Thorndike and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Medieval Europe This book aims to trace the development of Europe and its civilization, from the decline of the Roman Empire to the opening of the sixteenth century, for the benefit of the college student and the general reader. It is almost needless to say that such a work makes little claim to originality in method and still less in subject-matter, which it has shame lessly borrowed from numerous sources. Indeed, in a book of this sort it is more fitting to apologize for anything new that one says than for following in old and beaten tracks. The author, of course, hopes that without making too radical departures he has introduced some improvement in selection and presentation of material, and that he has made few mistakes of fact and interpretation. The Table of Contents indicates the general plan of the volume, which is to treat medieval Europe as a whole and to hang the story upon a single thread, rather than to recount as distinct narratives the respective histories of France, England, Germany, Italy, and other countries of modem Europe. French or English history may be studied as such in courses and books so labeled. Moreover, the modern interest in the national state has usually been car ried too far in the study of the Middle Ages. Local division, not national unity and central government, is surely the striking feature through most of the medieval centuries.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rebirth of Europe: A Study of the Middle Age UR modern world, with its keener sense of spiritual values, and its finer conception of personal and national responsibility, differs from the old Roman world as much as if our race had been removed bodily to Jupiter or Saturn. As much! Better to say more: for with the merely physical transfer all the old ways and habits of thought would have been retained, and perhaps intensified; as was the case with the Greek colonists, who made their new homes in Asia even more Grecian than Athens itself.

Download or read book Medieval Europe written by Charles Bémont and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-24 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Medieval Europe: From 395 to 1270 The text-book which is here by permission presented in an English dress is by two of the most distinguished of the modern school of French historians. It is remarkable among text-books on this diflicult period for its great sim plicity of statement, and for the fulness with which it treats of t0pics not usually taken up in detail, notably of the medieval church. Of their purpose in the book the authors say in their introduction: We have attempted to give to this volume a certain unity, not to make a simple chronological enumeration of events, but to group the de tails around the more important facts - the formation of the feudal system in succession to the Germanic inva sions, the development of the Catholic Church, the strife of Christian Europe against the Mussulman Orient, the struggle between the Papacy and the Empire leading to the fall of the German power, the formation of strong monarchies in France and in England. We have in par ticular given a large place to the role and to the history of the Church which dominates all this period, and which has been ordinarily so neglected in our schoolbooks, and have sought to make clear how France obtained in the thirteenth century a sort of political and intellectual hegemony in Europe. We hope those who read will under stand what were the great ideas and directive tendencies which determined the historical evolution of the Middle Ages. We have always kept in mind in writing the con elusion to which we were advancing. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-11-04 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Europe in the Middle Ages News came that Philip II and the Emperor Henry VI were plotting with his brother John for his ruin at home, and Richard, weary at heart and sick in health, agreed to a three years and eight months' truce that left the Christians in the possession of the seaports of Jafi'a and Tyre, with the coastal territory between them, and gave pilgrims leave to visit Jerusalem untaxed. He himself refused with tears in his eyes even to gaze from a distant height on the city he could not conquer; but, vowing he would return, he set sail for the West in the autumn of 1192, and with his departure the Third Crusade ended. There were to be many other crusades, but none that expressed in the same way as these first three expeditions the united aspirations of Western Europe for the recovery of the land of the Holy Sepulchre. National jealousies had ruined the chances of the Third Crusade. And with every year the spirit of nationality was to grow in strength and make common action less possible for Europe.

Download or read book Mediaeval Europe written by Ephraim Emerton and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 666 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mediaeval Europe: 814-1300 The present volume owes its origin to repeated requests, coming from widely scattered and widely different sources, that I would go on with the history of continental Europe from the point where it was left at the close of a little book published in the year 1888. That earlier book, "An Introduction to the Study of the Middle Ages," was written in the hope that it might fill a place, at that time unoccupied, between the manuals of Roman history and those upon mediaeval times. This hope has been fairly realized, and the many kind expressions of good-will it has brought me have given me confidence for this new venture. When I began the former volume I had in mind a reader of about fifteen years of age; but this person grew insensibly older as the work progressed, and, in fact, the book has found its chief use in the earlier stages of college teaching. This second book will assume a certain familiarity with the period covered by the former, a period now, happily, to be studied in more than one excellent manual. It has for its subject the period extending from the death of Charlemagne to about the middle of the thirteenth century, and it seems important to justify in some way this selection of limits. The division of history into periods is at best a very doubtful matter. Any attempt of the sort must seem to violate the first great canon of historical science that history admits of no breaks in its continuity.

Download or read book A Source Book for Medieval History written by Oliver J. Thatcher and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Source Book for Medieval History: Selected Documents Illustrating, the History of Europe in the Middle Age The use of original sources in the teaching of mediaeval history is still hampered by the scarcity of material adapted to the needs of the student. This situation is sufficient excuse for the publication of a new book of translations of important mediaeval documents, if such a book does more than reedit old material if it presents, along with the usual and familiar sources, documents not elsewhere translated or brings together documents not otherwise easily accessible. We believe the present work does that, and that it also makes the use of this material more practicable by giving fuller notes and explanations than has usually been attempted. Our purpose in general has been to present material touching only what may be called the most important matters (persons, events, movements, institutions, and conditions) of the whole mediaeval period. We have not tried to make a complete source-book for the period, but only to offer in usable form illustrative material which may be of service to both teacher and student in general or information courses. Each document is meant to illustrate or illumine one particular thing. While it may throw light on many other things, the teacher should be warned not to attempt to deduce from these few documents the whole history and life of the Middle Age. We are fully aware that in the choice of documents we shall not please all. Many of the documents here given are clearly essential and must be found in such a book as we have tried to make. Concerning all such there can be no question. As to the others, there are hundreds of documents which would serve our purpose quite as well as those we have used, perhaps even better. In making our selections we have been guided by a great variety of considerations which it would be useless to enumerate. While another would have made a different selection, we believe that the documents which we present really illustrate the matter in question, and therefore will be found satisfactory. With this we shall be quite content. The necessity of selection has also led us to omit the political history of France and England.
