A short history of the Middle Ages

"A Short History of the Middle Ages is an narrative overview of medieval history from c.300 to c.1500. Each chapter covers a "slice of time" and integrates culture, politics, art, economics, and social issues. Rosenwein places Europe in the context of the Islamic world and the Byzantine, Mongol, and Ottomon empires. The histories of women, Jews, and heretics are all important parts of this story." "With 68 plates, most in color, A Short History's illustrations serve as an introduction to the history of medieval art and architecture, while its 38 maps - many in color and two entirely new to this edition - provide a wordless panorama of political changes over time. Genealogies and lists of popes and other rulers are provided so that the book may serve as a handy reference tool." "Also new to the second edition are the chronologies of Key Events covered in each chapter. Revisions and expansions have been made throughout, with particular attention to the section on early Islam."--BOOK JACKET.
