Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medievalists prefer that we not view the Middle Ages in a static frame but rather a dynamic one. They want us to be aware of the shifts and changes that characterize the period. In Men of Learning in Europe at the Close of the Middle Ages, Jacques Verger provides us with an important look at the evolution of social classes and an essential chapter in the study of cultural history. By the end of the Middle Ages, societal categories which were adequate for earlier periods-- "those who pray, those who fight, those who work" --no longer allowed for the growing complexity of Western society. One of the key new groups which emerged was that of learned men. Through their intellectual competency and their ability to build a social and political utility, these men came to be important figures. The fledgling modern state found them to be helpful allies and favored their ascension among the traditional elite. Thus, they contributed not only to the advancement of knowledge, making the Renaissance period possible, but also to the reshaping of late medieval political structure. Combining cultural, social, and political history, Men of Learning in Europe at the Close of the Middle Ages measures the influence acquired by certain disciplines--in particular religious, literary, and legal--in the organization of European society. Anyone interested in the Middle Ages or intellectual history will want to read this book.

Book excerpt: Knights in shining armor, wandering minstrels and jugglers, elegantly robed lords and ladies, gentle friars and learned monks - tournaments and village fairs, crenellated castles, soaring gothic cathedrals - the Middle Ages was certainly a colorful and exciting period. But it was also a dangerous time of war, superstition, and pestilence - a time when chaos and ignorance threatened to destroy European society and would have done so, were it not for the power of the Catholic Church. Meet the heroes and heroines of medieval Europe and discover through them the many facets of the kaleidoscopic world in which they lived.

Book excerpt: What do you think of when you consider the Middle Ages? Knights in armor and damsels in distress? Vikings plundering monasteries? Religious dissenters burning at the stake? The dead bodies piling up as war, famine, and plague devastated Europe? Think again! While all these are part of the tapestry of the medieval era, the threads of politics, personality and war, culture, religion, education and the arts are vastly more intricate and fascinating. Think Charlemagne, Eleanor of Aquitaine, Joan of Arc, Peter Abelard, Geoffrey Chaucer and a riveting cast of thousands. After the fall of the Roman Empire, Western Europe had to reinvent itself and redefine its philosophical parentage. Inside you will read about... ✓ The Early Middle Ages ✓ Advancing to Empire with Charlemagne ✓ The High Middle Ages ✓ The Flowering of the Church ✓ Times of Change ✓ The Late Middle Ages ✓ The End and the Beginning As the Christian Church filled the void left by the loss of Roman authority, nations would emerge out of blurred geographical boundaries and dynastic kings would evolve from warlords. Rome gets the glory, and the Renaissance gets the glamor, but they are bookends for the dynamic centuries that are known as the Middle Ages.

Book excerpt: Written for middle school students, Suzanne Strauss Art's Early Times Series history books bring an easy-to-read style to the oftentimes difficult task of engaging students in the study of history. And now, full color maps and images throughout immerse students in a fully imaginable, long ago world of knights in armor, of kings, poets, and peasants. From barbarian invasions and the battles of Charlemagne's army to detailed descriptions of the everyday lives of monks and lords, The Story of the Middle Ages incorporates a comprehensive study of medieval society with a detailed look at what it was really like to be there.This comprehensive and highly readable volume traces the rising power and influence of the Christian Church, the development of nation states, the growth of towns, the creation of a middle class, the expanding role of women, the rise of universities, and great achievements in the domains of science, art, architecture, and letters.Beginning with the chaos that arose following the fall of the Roman Empire, The Story of the Middle Ages describes how various tribal societies - the Franks, the Saxons, the Norsemen, the Arabs - restored order in many parts of the Mediterranean world. The lively narrative is highlighted by colorful portraits of Clovis, Charlemagne, Alfred the Great, and other great warriors. But it was the Christian Church that maintained a form of the old Roman bureaucracy and stood as the guardian of law and order in most of southwestern Europe and Britain.This book explains the founding and teachings of the Church and describes the important role of monasteries in extending the power of faith as well as preserving scholarship and art. Important religious figures such as St. Augustine, St. Benedict, and St. Francis are portrayed, while the description of a day in the life of a monk further enriches the narrative.
