A History of the Middle Ages, 300-1500 Paperback / softback
by John M. Riddle
Paperback / softback
Description
This clear and comprehensive text covers the Middle Ages from the classical era to the late medieval period.
John M. Riddle provides a cogent analysis of the rulers, wars, and events-both natural and human-that defined the medieval era.
Taking a broad geographical perspective, Riddle includes northern and eastern Europe, Byzantium, and the Islamic states.
Each, he convincingly shows, offered values and institutions that presaged modernity.
In addition to a thorough chronological narrative, the text offers humanizing features to engage students.
Each chapter opens with a theme-setting vignette about daily life and introduces students to key controversies and themes in historiography by discussing the work of a prominent medieval historian.
Richly illustrated, this lively, engaging book will immerse readers in the medieval world, an era that shaped the foundation for the modern world.
