"Overall, The Closing of the Middle Ages? provides a wide-ranging introduction to an under-studied period, which students will find well organized and approachable, while scholars will value the stimulus it provides for further investigation and debate." English Historical Review

This study looks at the period in its own right without treating it as an epilogue to the Middle Ages or a prelude to modern times.
