How Medieval Europe was Ruled by Christian Raffensperger Pdf

The vast majority of studies on rulership in medieval Europe focus on one kingdom; one type of rule; or one type of ruler. This volume attempts to break that mold and demonstrate the breadth of medieval Europe and the various kinds of rulership within it. How Medieval Europe was Ruled aims to demonstrate the multiplicity of types of rulers and polities that existed in medieval Europe. The contributors discuss not just kings or queens, but countesses, dukes, and town leadership. We see that rulers worked collaboratively with one another both across political boundaries and within their own borders in ways that are not evident in most current studies of kingship, inhibited by too narrow a focus. The volume also covers the breadth of medieval Europe from Scandinavia in the north to the Italian peninsula in the south, Iberia and the Anglo-Normans in the west to Rus, Byzantium and the Khazars in the east. This book is geared towards a wide audience and thus provides a broad base of understanding via a clear explanation of concepts of rule in each of the areas that is covered. The book can be utilized in the classroom, to enhance the presentation of a medieval Europe survey or to discuss rulership more specifically for a region or all of Europe. Beyond the classroom, the book is accessible to all scholars who are interested in continuing to learn and expand their horizons.

Europe in the Middle Ages by Ierne L. Plunket Pdf

This history book presents an accurate and detailed history of the much-celebrated Mediaeval Europe. Despite the subject being so vast, the author, Ierne L. Plunket, has made a notable effort not to compress the details about the background of Western Europe. Plunket wrote it intending to supply his readers the facts about the life in Medieval Europe; the classes that existed during the olden times; the lives and principles of the heroes and villains of history; the beliefs and prejudices of the great thinkers, and much more. Everything anyone wants to know about this subject is mentioned in the book with Plunket's incredibly understandable writing style. The book covers every detail from the decline of Rome to the Renaissance, containing interesting information on the prominent events- battles, defeats, massacres, etc., and also giving a great idea about the politics of that period. This historical work primarily acts as a window to medieval Europe. It's a must-read for all history enthusiasts.
