Medieval Worlds is a comprehensive sourcebook for the study of western Europe from the 5th to the 15th century. The era was one of immense diversity and openness to new ideas and outreach in areas ranging from technology to natural philosophy.

The texts collected in this volume cover a wide range of documentation, including chronicles, legal and official state and church documents, biographies, poems and letters. Covering the whole of Europe, the range of texts offered illustrates the complexity as well as the unity of the medieval world. Subjects range from the diverse worlds of monasteries, the papacy, the crusades, women, to the roles of the town and the countryside.

Contents: 1. Introduction to medieval worlds; 2. The monastic world; 3. The world of the papacy; 4. The world of the Crusades; 5. The world of the feudal kingdoms; 6. The English political world; 7. The world of the outsider; 8. The world of the women; 9. The world of the mind; 10. The world of the countryside; 11. The world of the town; 12. The medieval world self-observed.
