The Roman Empire Divided: 400-700

3.3/5 ( ratings)

In this history of what happened to Western Europe, North Africa and the Near and Middle East after the break-up of the Roman Empire in the 5th century, John Moorhead asks whether there was continuity in Western Europe after this event, and to what extent it was sidelined with the ascendancy of Islam and the Arab expansion in the 7th century. Broad in its chronological sweep, and with an unusual geographical range, the book covers North Africa authoritatively in addition to Italy, Spain and Gaul, and the lands and peoples east of the Meditterranean. Contemporary economic issues, social structures and institutions are examined in a lucid narrative, which interweaves numerous threads into a picture of the empire in the year 500.
