A History of the Middle Ages is a history book by authors Crane Brinton, John Christopher and Robert Wolff. The book tells the incredible story of a European man in transition. An impressive chronicle of 1,000 years of political, social and economic transformation that began with the disintegration of classical Mediterranean civilization and ushered in the Renaissance.
The story of two new religions, Christianity and Islam, both of which are destined to dominate the minds of each of the new civilizations. This is the Great Age of Faith, the age of darkness and the age of enlightenment… the time of lords, commerce, and cathedrals.
This great history begins with a survey of Christianity, then continues with an exploration of the “dark ages” after the fall of Rome, before continuing with an explanation of how Europe treated them. Vice and absorbed, the barbarians ruled the Empire.
Finally discover the events that made up the great flowering of the Gothic Age and the explosion of knowledge that later paved the way for the Renaissance. The Middle Ages was the forerunner of everything we in the West consider “modern”. This beautifully written history tells you why.
