Portrait of a Medieval Mind

Ajutor

Copertina de Jay Rubenstein: Guibert of Nogent (ePUB)

This is a well written and valuable study of the life of a familiar but still somehow shadowy figure and an important contribution to medieval intellectual history, with insights into the meaning of the twelfth-century renaissance, the monastic mindset, the invention of psychological thought, the birth of the university, and the historiography of the Crusades.
