Around Florian Mazel, the best specialists of the medieval period offer us an ambitious intellectual synthesis which proposes, in the light of the most recent research, a new account of the European Middle Ages.

"The Middle Ages represent, by their very otherness, an extraordinary place of wandering and a remarkable training ground for the critical mind, where one can reflect among other things, at a relative distance from contemporary passions, on the relationships between public and private, community and identity, hierarchies and solidarities, role and status, memory and history, violence and solidarity, law and tradition, gift and exchange, imagination and identity, institution and power, growth and environment... Who would find the thing useless?"
