The idea of the Middle Ages -- Romans and barbarians -- The world of late antiquity -- Western Christendom -- Conclusion.
Discusses the decline of the Roman Empire, the division of the Mediterranean world during the seventh and eighth centuries into three culture zones, East Rome, Islam, and Latin Europe, and the rise of Christianity in the West as the dominant religion. As Roman imperial traditions gave way to those of the Germanic peoples who established kingdoms in the former Western Empire, new forms of political leadership were introduced, and the population of Europe was gradually Christianized.
