Christendom College professor and historian Steve Weidenkopf dispels common misconceptions about the Middle Ages in a new work:
The Church and the Middle Ages: Cathedrals, Crusaders, and the Papacy in Exile. The book, now available for preorder, presents the era in the engaging, easy-to-understand style that Weidenkopf is known for, resulting in a vibrant retelling of one of the most important periods in Church history.
Weidenkopf, who teaches Church history at Christendom’s Graduate School of Theology, has previously focused on this period in his acclaimed book
The Glory of the Crusaders, but
The Church and the Middle Ages takes an even broader and more ambitious look at the Middle Ages as a whole. Focusing on the years 1000-1378, Weidenkopf provides a clear picture of an era critics often use to undermine the Catholic Church.
