| Summary | "The Close of the Middle Ages, 1272-1494" by Sir Richard Lodge is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work forms the third volume in the series "Periods of European History" and focuses on the transformative years that led to the end of the Middle Ages and the emergence of modern Europe. The narrative spans significant events, political shifts, and social changes that characterized this complex period, emphasizing the chaos and diversity that defined Europe during these two centuries. At the start of the book, Lodge outlines the intricacies of European history during the closing phase of the Middle Ages, explaining the political fragmentation that followed the Great Interregnum and the shifting balance of power among various states. The opening discusses figures such as Rudolf of Hapsburg and Ottokar of Bohemia, highlighting key conflicts and the decline of the imperial authority. Lodge emphasizes that the period was marked by a struggle between old traditions and emerging states, alongside notable events such as the Hundred Years War and the Renaissance, setting the stage for the detailed exploration of the political and intellectual developments that followed. The author acknowledges the challenges of organizing the narrative due to the era's inherent diversity, indicating a careful approach to presenting this complex historical landscape.
