Een wereld verlicht door vuur: het middeleeuwse denken en de renaissance

The book weaves together different events and figures — I wonder what inspired the selection process and how he balanced different perspectives.

The descriptions of how people thought and believed back then really made me think about how much has changed — or stayed the same — in human nature.

Given his perspective and storytelling style, I’m curious whether this book offers a balanced view or if it emphasizes certain aspects over others.
