Description: Interest in the
middle ages is at an all time high at the moment, thanks in part to "The
Da Vinci Code." Never has there been a moment more propitious for a study
of our misconceptions of the Middle Ages than now.
Ranging across

of the many misinterpretations that have evolved concerning the medieval
period,
including:
1. the church
2. war
3. science
4. art
5. society
With an
impressive international array of contributions, the book will be essential reading
for students and scholars involved with medieval religion, history, and
culture.
