Providing an inclusive history of the entire territory and people of medieval Europe from 250 to1450, this volume examines not just the political history but the rich social and cultural history, too.
European history has functioned as a defining force in the modern worldview of many countries and their citizens. Whether viewed positively or negatively, that history has shaped the world in many ways. To understand Europe, it is essential to have a clear view of its medieval history. Proceeding from the decline of the Roman Empire, with the arrival of Germanic and Turkic peoples, through the development of polities in medieval Europe from Iberia to Ireland, Scandinavia to Sicily, and all the way to the taiga, European history grows and changes over the medieval period which we bring to a close with the final fall of Rome, the capture of Constantinople by the Ottomans in 1453. Traditional histories of medieval Europe focus primarily on the West. This history attempts to include the breadth of the continent, from Scandinavia to the Mediterranean and from the Atlantic to the Urals, from the nomads of the steppe to the Sami herders in the north and from the vernacular literacies of Alfred the Great of Wessex to Boris’s kingdom in Bulgaria. The chapters pair eastern and western elements to help make the point that all of Europe was undergoing changes, not only the west, who then pushed those changes onto the east which has been the common narrative.
Medieval Europe 250-1450 is essential reading for all students of Medieval Europe and, in particular, those who wish to understand the interactions and parallels between east and west, north and south.

About the Author
Christian Raffensperger holds the Kenneth E. Wray Chair in the Humanities at Wittenberg University, where he is also Professor and Chair of the History Department. His academic work focuses on building a medieval Europe which is inclusive of the totality of the continent, not just the medieval West. This began with integrating the kingdom of Rus into Europe in his initial publication, Reimagining Europe: Kievan Rus in Medieval Europe (2012) and has continued through numerous books and articles, including his most recent book, Rulers and Rulership in the Arc of Medieval Europe (Routledge, 2023).
Florin Curta is Professor of Medieval History and Archaeology at the University of Florida. His books include Southeastern Europe in the Middle Ages (2006) and Eastern Europe in the Middle Ages, 500-1300 (2019). He is also the editor of several collections of studies and of a reader entitled Medieval Eastern Europe, 500-1300 (2024). Curta is the editor of the Brill online Bibliography of the History and Archaeology of Eastern Europe in the Middle Ages and co-editor of the Brill series “East Central and Eastern Europe in the Middle Ages, 450-1450.”
