"Contesting the Middle Ages is a thorough exploration of recent arguments surrounding
nine hotly debated topics: the decline and fall of Rome, the Viking invasions, the
Crusades, the persecution of minorities, sexuality in the Middle Ages, women within
Medieval society, intellectual and environmental history, the Black Death and, lastly,
the waning of the Middle Ages. Sparking discussion and inspiring examination of the
past and its ongoing significance in modern life, Contesting the Middle Ages is essential
reading for students of Medieval history and historiography"
