The Middle Ages

McKeon, Richard | April 10, 1929 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information on the book "Founders of the Middle Ages," by Edward Kennard Rand. It has come to be accepted among the truisms of historical inquiry that the Middle Ages are at last to have their proper and serious estimation; at least the fashion of passing them by as the arid period of logic-chopping inanities has gone. The historian recognizes now, rather, an embarrassing mass and richness of materials such that it is scarcely possible to begin any study since each problem suggests a precedent problem which needs to be attacked first.
