Bibliography

For simplicity's sake, bibliographic listings are broken down into two categories: printed works and electronic material. Obviously, the advantage of online documents is that they are only a hyperlink away for those with Web access. However, far more information concerning the European medieval period may be found in printed works than in electronic sources. This becomes immediately evident if you look at the relative lengths of the two sections found below. Luckily, if you have access to a reasonably good university library or a comprehensive interlibrary loan system, most of the books and articles listed here should not be hard to find.
