| Description | The Middle Ages Close Up is an engaging popular-science book by Oleg Voskoboynikov, a well-known medievalist. In it, the author moves away from stereotypes about the “Dark Ages” and, using a microhistorical approach, reconstructs a portrait of the era through the everyday life, emotions and worldview of the people of that time. Voskoboynikov suggests looking at this period as the foundation of modern European civilisation. He explores how medieval people loved, feared, rejoiced and perceived death, as well as how visual images — miniatures, cathedrals and sculptures — shaped the worldview of the medieval European. The edition contains many illustrations. The book is suitable for anyone interested in history and cultural studies. |
