The Monks of the Middle Ages by Edward L. Cutts is a comprehensive book that explores the lives and roles of monks during the Middle Ages. The book provides a detailed account of the history of monasticism, including the origins of monasticism in the early Christian church and the spread of monasticism throughout Europe. Cutts examines the different orders of monks that emerged during this period, including the Benedictines, Cistercians, and Carthusians, among others. The book also provides an in-depth look at the daily life of monks, including their religious practices, work, and social interactions within the monastic community. Cutts explores the various ways in which monks contributed to the development of medieval society, including their role in preserving and transmitting knowledge through their scriptoria and libraries. Additionally, the book discusses the challenges and controversies that monks faced during the Middle Ages, including conflicts with secular authorities and criticism from reformers who believed that the monastic lifestyle had become corrupted. Overall, The Monks of the Middle Ages is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of monasticism and its impact on medieval society.THIS 96 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Scenes and Characters of the Middle Ages, by Edward L.
