註釋
"This fourth volume of 'The Church in History' series examines developments in the Christian churches of the East and the West in the High Middle Ages. The author studies major Western movements such as the reform papacy, the crusades, and scholasticism, and discusses the impact of these movements on the Eastern Church. Concurrently, he explores the theological and spiritual trends that spread from Byzantium to the northern regions of the Balkans and Rus', which helped to maintain the identity of the Byzantine Commonwealth even as the empire itself crumbled - monasticism, sacramental life, and liturgy. Moreover, the author describes the stories of the native churches of Egypt, Ethiopia, Syria, Armenia, and Georgia. Through careful analysis, this volume exposes many factors that contributed to Christian disunity in the Middle Ages and that made attempts at reunion between the two halves of Christendom fail. Therefore, this work challenges and stimulates not only church historians but also all Christians concerned with the root causes of disunity in the Body of Christ."--taken from back cover.
