Medieval Europe's transformative conquest and colonization.

If you're intrigued by medieval history, Bartlett's account reveals a lesser-discussed side of Europe – not as the colonized, but as the colonizer. It's a thought-provoking exploration of cultural shifts from the 10th to the 14th century, underscored by conquests and the spread of European influence. This book stitches together the tapestry of this period with vivid details and scholarly insight that could change the way you perceive the roots of modern Europe.

Description

From our twentieth-century perspective, we tend to think of the Europe of the past as a colonizer, a series of empires that conquered lands beyond their borders and forced European cultural values on other peoples. This provocative book shows that Europe in the Middle Ages was as much a product of a process of conquest and colonization as it was later a colonizer.
