Description

Challenge the idea that the Middle Ages lacked technical progress with this scholarly collection from Routledge. Based on a 1995 conference, these 10 essays provide a detailed look at medieval ingenuity and the practical application of new tools and methods. This book moves past the misconception of a stagnant era. Instead, it presents a period defined by significant technological development. Readers will learn how advancements in building construction, manufacturing, and metallurgy were influenced by the social and political landscape of the time. By examining cathedrals, mills, and mines, the authors demonstrate how technical skills were shaped by culture, social identity, and political ambition. This collection is an essential resource for students and historians interested in how medieval people used resources and technology to shape their world.
