The Medieval Imprint: The Founding of the Western European Tradition

Trama

Although often held in contempt, dismissed with obloquy, or simply ignored, cannot the Middle Ages be regarded as more than the traditional delayer of the Renaissance and the Reformation? John Morrall, while not denying the essential differences between that age and ours, shows that the dichotomy between medieval and modern is not so self-evident.
