"The book listed here is an update to the one I actually read, which is probably the book's first edition, purchased and first read in 1965. The reason I reread it is twofold; one I have been reading mostly mind candy thrillers and, two, I have always considered this one of my favorite books. It still is. Cantor was one of the pioneers of bringing the middle ages out of the dark ages. It's amazing the number of cultural foundations we take for granted that were begun in the middle ages - the university system, law, most of religion - the list goes on. Life was hard and cruel, but it was a period of deep religious faith. Cantor makes it all very interesting.
It was good to read something substantial. I needed that before tackling The Lost Symbol, which tries to convince us that the ancients knew secrets we are not capable of handling. I wonder what Cantor would have thought of such a ridiculous idea!"
"This is a book I've had for years, and I finally picked it up, remembering that once, many years ago, I was a history major. It took a while to get through, being so densely packed with factual content on every page to absorb. But it was not a difficult read for an academic history book, entertaining to a geek like me!"
"Compelling reading and first class treatment of medieval civilization, the author painstakingly address every possible angle in the study of medievalism, from the influence of Greek, Judeo-Christian until Islam's culture that has formed and reformed the multiple faces of middle ages. Also he discuss the crusade factor in political middle ages and the contour of scholasticism that later gave birth to european enlightenment.
This book is simply a must , I wouldn't classify myself as cultured man until the day I finish the last page of this book."
