Více o knize

Challenging the notion of the 'Dark Ages,' this book presents a vibrant and culturally diverse period following the Roman Empire's collapse. Julia Smith combines cultural history, regional studies, and gender history to illuminate how individuals from various societal levels shaped their world. By incorporating direct voices from the era, she provides a fresh perspective on the early Middle Ages, marking this as the first comprehensive study in over fifty years to integrate all facets of this pivotal historical period.
