Understanding the Middle Ages – The Transformation of Ideas and Attitudes in the Medieval World
Autor Harald Kleinschmidten Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 feb 2003
This radical study traces the transformation of ideas in western Europe during more than one thousand years between the fifth and sixteenth centuries. Its central concern is to interpret and understand changing attitudes towards time, space, the human body, human and social relationships, productivity and distribution, travel, modes of thought, attitudes to the past, ageversus youth, war, faith, and social and political order.
Illustrations and narrative work together in this book to present medieval culture as one shaped by the spoken word and the visual image. Drawing extensively from awide range of primary source material, the breadth and originality of Kleinschmidt's study will have an important influence on scholarly perception of the middle ages, as a period of continual change and continually changing attitudes.
HARALD KLEINSCHMIDT teaches in the College of International Studies at the University of Tsukuba, Japan.
