About This Item

Helicon, Oxford, 1994 reprint of 1973 first edition. Cloth, 4to,. 705 pp. The Middle Ages saw the creation in Europe of a wealthy and dynamic Christian civilisation that subsequently spread around the world, cathedrals and parish churches were rebuilt; castles replaced wooden halls; houses of religious men and women sprang up throughout the continent; universities were founded; over 4,000 new towns were laid out. In the same period the Islamic world extended its borders and China made outstanding technological and economic advances. The Chronology provides a comprehensive and detailed guide to these developments and many more. Arranged in a year-by-year sequence, the Chronology presents two parallel sets of information: first, a detailed listing of political, military and diplomatic events; second, information on a broad range of themes - Science, Technology, Religion, Education, Art, Architecture, Law, Economics, Music, Literature, Philosophy, Scholarship, and Births and Deaths. This original structure serves the reader in several different ways. By using the comprehensive index he or she can find out when particular historical events occurred. From the juxtaposition of developments in a wide range of fields the reader can place particular events in context and obtain panoramas of contemporaneous developments." - from the blurb. Fine in Very Good dustwrapper which is heavily sunned on and around the spine.
