The study of the Middle Ages is a comprehensive examination of the most recent debates surrounding nine contentious issues: the fall and decline of Rome, the Viking invasions, the Crusades, the persecution of minorities, sexuality in the Middle Ages, women in medieval society, intellectual and environmental history, the Black Death, and finally, the decline of the Middle Ages.
The historiography of the Middle Ages, a term that is itself controversial among medieval historians, has been continuously debated and rewritten for centuries. In each chapter, John Aberth sets out key historiographical debates in an engaging and informative way, encouraging students to consider the process of writing about history and prompting them to ask questions even of already thoroughly debated subjects, such as why the Roman Empire fell or what significance the Black Death had both in the late Middle Ages and beyond.
Sparking discussion and inspiring examination of the past and its ongoing significance in modern life, Contesting the Middle Ages is essential reading for students of medieval history and historiography.
