Средневековье. Самая спорная и противоречивая эпоха в истории человечества. Одни воспринимают ее как времена прекрасных дам и благородных рыцарей, менестрелей и скоморохов, когда ломались копья, шумели пиры, пелись серенады и звучали проповеди. Для других же Средневековье – это время фанатиков и палачей, костров инквизиции, вонючих городов, эпидемий, жестоких обычаев, антисанитарии, всеобщей темноты и дикости.
Неужели правда, что рыцари и вообще люди в Средние века были маленького роста – не выше полутора метров, а те, кто достигал нынешних средних 175 см считались чуть ли не гигантами? И в Средневековье на самом деле никто кроме монахов не умел читать и писать, мылись всего два раза в жизни – после рождения и перед смертью, жутко воняли и кишели блохами? И меч весил 20 кг, а доспехи все 100, поэтому рыцаря поднимали на коня с помощью лебедки, и в туалет ему ходить приходилось прямо в доспехи, потому что их было просто не снять?
Новая книга серии «История на пальцах» поможет разобраться, что к чему.
