Story
This is the first major biography for a generation of a truly formidable king. Edward I is familiar to millions as 'Longshanks', conqueror of Scotland and nemesis of Sir William Wallace ('Braveheart'). Edward was born to rule England, but believed that it was his right to rule all of Britain. His reign was one of the most dramatic of the entire Middle Ages, leading to war and conquest on an unprecedented scale and leaving a legacy of division that has lasted from his day to our own.

Story
Warriors of the Cloisters tells how key cultural innovations from Central Asia revolutionized medieval Europe and gave rise to the culture of science in the West. Medieval scholars rarely performed scientific experiments, but instead contested issues in natural science, philosophy, and theology using the recursive argument method. This highly distinctive and unusual method of disputation was a core feature of medieval science, the predecessor of modern science.

Story
Henry II had all the gifts of the gods. He was charismatic, clever, learned, empathetic, a brilliant tactician, with great physical strength and an astonishing self-belief. Henry was the creator of the Plantagenet dynasty of kings, who ruled through eight generations in command of vast lands in Britain and Europe. Virtually unbeaten in battle, and engaged in a ceaseless round of conquest and diplomacy, Henry forged an empire that matched Charlemagne's.

Story
Fiona Watson examines the process of conquest and attempted colonization of one medieval kingdom by another, concentrating on that most vital aspect of conquest: the maintenance of garrisons. She shows how the kingdom of Scotland was able to marshal its resources and create a coherent and cohesive national front to deal with a more powerful enemy. Under the Hammer provides a much clearer picture of medieval Scotland-its varying component parts; its sense of self, its strengths and weakness.

Story
Una storia gloriosa quanto tormentata, quella dei Templari, segnata da processi, roghi, scandali, accuse di eresia: è forse per questo che intorno al potente ordine cavalleresco non hanno mai smesso di fiorire leggende e miti, destinati a suscitare un sempre rinnovato interesse. Il libro ne dipana l'intricata vicenda, dalla fondazione nel Duecento all'abolizione agli inizi del Trecento, in un racconto limpido e appassionante, basato su ricerche originali che hanno portato l'autrice a rintracciare il documento che attesta l'assoluzione papale dei cavalieri del Tempio.

Story
Arrivano completamente inaspettate. Durano pochissimo, talvolta solo qualche settimana, poi vengono represse. Ma in quel poco tempo succedono cose tali da rimanere per sempre incise nella memoria collettiva. Sono le rivolte popolari. La storia, almeno nell’ultimo millennio, è tutta punteggiata da momenti critici in cui una massa di persone decide che il futuro così come lo vede non gli piace, e prova a cambiarlo. Il Medioevo non fa eccezione: anche allora non sono mancati movimenti insurrezionali che nel loro sviluppo iniziale non sembrano affatto distinguibili dalle più travolgenti rivoluzioni moderne.

Story
I Templari, l'ordine religioso-militare più potente del Medioevo, con tutta probabilità per un certo periodo custodirono la sindone oggi conservata a Torino. Venerato nel più rigido segreto e conosciuto nella sua reale natura solo dai maggiori dignitari dell'ordine, il telo era conservato nel tesoro centrale dei Templari, che avevano fama di essere autorità nel campo delle reliquie. In un'epoca di confusione dottrinale per la Chiesa, la sindone per i Templari poteva essere un potente antidoto contro la diffusione delle eresie.

Story
Era il sultano, ma anche il califfo, protettore della Mecca; usava il titolo ancestrale di khan, che sapeva di steppa e orde nomadi, ma era anche l'erede di Roma e Bisanzio e ostentava il titolo di "Cesare dei Cesari". Era il Gran Turco. Solimano il Magnifico, e il suo regno, rappresentava per gli europei, di volta in volta, uno specchio distorto, un incubo e una speranza, la fertile terra dei paradossi.

Story
Tre papi attraversano la vita di san Francesco contrastandone il dirompente potere spirituale e il desiderio innovatore: Innocenzo III, Onorio III e Gregorio IX. Il primo di loro, Innocenzo III, nel 1209 alla proposta di vita cristiana portata da Francesco dà una risposta estremamente cauta e, secondo alcune fonti, sprezzante e negativa. Non è l'unico rifiuto. Più volte Francesco cerca di far approvare una regola per il proprio ordine e più volte gli viene negato.
