  • Rila Mukherjee

摘要

We replace here the mid-century-as-key approach of General Introduction I with region-specific accounts of the world Europe interacted with. Seen from the perspective of Europe, the medieval period is most commonly framed by the decline of the western Roman Empire between the fifth and seventh centuries and the emergence of the Renaissance and the so-called Age of Discovery in the fourteenth-fifteenth centuries.
