    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    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.
