Synopsis

The Middle Ages in Texts and Texture is a collection of unique essays that teaches students of medieval history how to work with primary sources. The goal of the collection is to provide students with a sense of the 'texture' of the Middle Ages by having them engage and struggle with some of the most notable texts produced during this period. The texts discussed in the essays are arranged in chronological order and span the period from the fourth century to the turn of the fifteenth century. Most are well known classics and are commonly used in courses on medieval Europe or Western Civilization. They come from a wide range of genres, and each essay begins with basic information about the texts, their authors, and the larger settings in which they were written.
