A volume from the series "World History". The focus is on the period of the "High Middle Ages". In Europe, this is the time of emperors and kings, of chivalry and scholasticism, of magisters and scholars. In the Orient, Islam unfolded its high culture, characterised by important mosques, artists, scholars and school centres. The early empires of Africa, less known to us, from the Atlas in the north to Zimbabwe in the southeast, from the Sudan region to Benin and Ife on the Gulf of Guinea, also come to life in this volume.
