How Jesus' message of love and tolerance transformed Europe


From games and dramas to animations and webtoons… we can often see parts of the Middle Ages in our daily lives.
But do we truly understand the Middle Ages? This book reinterprets the history of the medieval Roman Catholic Church through the prism of Jesus' message of unconditional and universal love, the power of the Pope, consolidated over centuries in a single figure, and the centralized strategic institutions that emerged from it.

Publisher's Review
The final part of the medieval trilogy, Christianity.

When talking about the Middle Ages, keywords that cannot be left out are 'feudalism', 'the Crusades', and 'Christianity', and among them, this book contains the history of Christianity, or more precisely, Roman Catholicism.

How did Jesus' early Christian message of love and tolerance shape the Middle Ages? How did it influence the religious wars, monasteries welcoming pilgrims, the poor, and the sick, the bloody Crusades and their attendant misfortunes, the Inquisition, the birth of universities, corrupt popes, and Michelangelo's frescoes?
Over the millennia of Roman Catholic history, the Catholic Church and the popes have transformed and shaped medieval society and political culture.
The decisions made by Roman popes in the Middle Ages and the philosophical and spiritual thinking born over 1,500 years ago still influence political systems around the world today.
