About This Novel

This book describes the early changes in faith in Europe, divided into three parts: "Byzantine, Islamic and Jewish Civilizations", "Dark Ages and Crusades" and "Christian Civilization". It adopts an integrated historical research method to fully and objectively analyze and discuss the possible scope and opinions of the medieval civilization from 325 to 1300. Starting from the distant Byzantium and Islam, this book gives a general introduction to each of the four medieval civilizations or aspects of each era: Byzantium, Islam, Judaism and Western Europe, and gives as much analysis as possible of the confluence and excitement of these four cultures during the Crusades. Medieval times are a state and a period: in Western Europe we should end with Columbus; in Russia it continues to the time of Peter the Great (during 1725); in India it continues to our own time. This era left behind precious religious, economic, artistic and literary legacies.
