Light in the Dark Places: Memorials of Christian Life in the Middle Ages

About this book

Augustus Neander's memorials of Christian life during the Middle Ages, presented here in English translation. Rather than tracing institutions and rulers, Neander gathers accounts of believers whose faith shone in a period often called dark. The sketches introduce medieval Christians through their lives, sufferings, and devotion, offering a humane portrait of an age that is easily overlooked.
