The Eternal City also had a history. Here are the splendors, miseries, and secrets of the thousand years of the Middle Ages, during which the city of the Caesars gave way to the capital of God. Did Rome, after the Caesars, still exist in the Middle Ages? Better still, the Eternal City shone resplendently during this time. The capital of God expanded, cultivated, and conquered the West, of which it was the heart. It did so through faith, science, and art. And not without keeping its secret life, which is revealed here by the great historian André Vauchez.
