Synopsis
In the Encyclopedia of Barbarian Europe , medieval expert Michael Frassetto amasses the evidence for the defense--and prosecution--of this little-understood transition era in the history of Western civilization. Covering nearly 1,000 years of history--from the late ancient period through the first centuries of the Middle Ages--this concise but thorough reference work examines the key figures, places, events, and ideas of barbarian Europe. This title chronicles the ancient Visigoths, the rule of Benedict, and the sacking of Rome. The easy-to-access alphabetical entries and essays offer more than a mere chronicling of kings and battles and explore the social and cultural history of the era, with special attention played to the role of women., The first comprehensive reference work devoted exclusively to this dark, but critical, period in the history of Western civilization., The first comprehensive reference work devoted exclusively to this dark, but critical, period in the history of Western civilization.

      ​ Marked as dispatched. Didn’t arrive and was told a technical issue is why it was marked as dispatched hmmm, why do I doubt this and their best explanation with English learner grammatical error: ‘Unfortunately, we are unable to provide further details regarding the technical issue  as it unforeseen  issues​.’ Not the first time with them and won’t be the last I’m sure.
