This book reveals the medieval Mediterranean region as a richly nuanced space of places and peoples connected by a body of water, but far from unified ? and seeks to challenge what we think we know about the medieval Mediterranean, and the world it influenced.
This book reveals the medieval Mediterranean region as a richly nuanced space of places and peoples connected by a body of water, but far from unified?and seeks to challenge what we think we know about the medieval Mediterranean and the world it influenced.
Reflective of the diversity of the Mediterranean region, the contributors are an international body of scholars that bring together topics that are seemingly disparate but are in fact in a vibrant conversation with one another. The volume seeks to shed new light and perspectives on familiar topics. Each chapter begins with secondary commentary for context, and is followed by primary sources comprised of images and texts that invite careful reading, lively discussion, and possibilities for deeper research. Topics that are discussed include: Archaeology and Architecture, Stories of Travel and Encounter, Literature and Poetry, Matters of Faith, Crusades, Monarchies and Conflict, Ties that Bind, and Around the Mediterranean World.
Windows into the Medieval Mediterranean is simultaneously a scholarly and reader-friendly book intended to engage undergraduate and graduate students, scholars, and anyone interested in the Mediterranean of the Middles Ages.
