The Middle Ages: A Very Short Introduction explores the variety, change, dynamism, and sheer complexity of the period of European history between 500 and 1500 and the impact that this period has had on the modern day world. From the provinces of the Roman Empire, which became barbarian kingdoms after c.450–650, to the northern and eastern regions, which were increasingly integrated into Europe, this volume describes the emergence of a truly global system of communication, conquest, and trade. The Middle Ages also considers the challenges of life in Europe at that time—at all levels of society—by looking at the various facets of kinship and family, agriculture and trade, and groups and individuals.
