This book is an interdisciplinary approach to intellectual history, which puts the history of ideas in the context of cultural, political, religious and legal history.
The “Long Middle Ages” indicates a span of time extending from Antiquity, across the Middle Ages, to the Early Modern period. The author tries to understand factors of historical continuity binding this period together and the periodic scenes of violent change that disrupted societies and traditions. The Long Middle Ages were established on classical and biblical foundations, while each generation interpreted and expanded on those origins. The cohesion of the Long Middle Ages was brought about by continuous acts of reflection and renascence. Scholarly practices and ideas of Antiquity were taken up in the monasteries and cathedral schools of the Middle Ages, while during the Renaissance, and then the Baroque period, thinkers looked back to Antiquity and to the Middle Ages.

Continuity and Rupture in the Long Middle Ages is an interdisciplinary approach to intellectual history, which puts the history of ideas in the context of cultural, political, religious, and legal history. Medieval history is the central moment, while continuity and change are found in traditions extending from the Lord’s Prayer (AD 30) to Jean Mabillon (AD 1632–1707) and onward to moderns like Ernst Cassirer and Paul Ricoeur. Readers will discover new significance in historical figures like the Venerable Bede, Boniface of Mainz, Charlemagne, and Pope Formosus – in the laws of medieval kings and bishops – and institutions like the monastery of Cluny.

These essays, gathered together for the first time in this Variorum volume, offer powerful new interpretations for students and researchers in the fields of medieval studies, legal and literary interpretation, legal history, and the history of European intellectual life from ancient to modern times.

Michael Edward Moore is Emeritus Associate Professor of Medieval and European History, University of Iowa. He has published numerous essays on political culture and European intellectual history. He is the author of A Sacred Kingdom: Bishops and the Rise of Frankish Kingship and Nicholas of Cusa and the Kairos of Modernity. Born in Nuremberg, Germany, Moore was raised in New England and later among the woods and farmland of his native Michigan. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Michigan where he studied with Hans Küng and Czeslaw Milosz. He enjoys canoeing and hiking in the wilderness.
