«El otoño de la Edad Media» is the historical study by Johan Huizinga, published by Altaya in paperback (468 pages, in Spanish).
The book studies the life and spirit of the 14th and 15th centuries in France and the Low Countries. Huizinga analyses art, thought and courtly customs, and presents the Late Middle Ages as the twilight of an era, not as the seed of the Renaissance. It also links the painting of the Van Eyck brothers to the period's mentality.
It belongs to the collection «Grandes obras de historia», volume 52. The Spanish text comes from the German translation of the original Dutch «Herfsttij der Middeleeuwen», published in 1919.
For readers of medieval and cultural history, as well as for those approaching the classics of European historiography.
Johan Huizinga was a Dutch historian and one of the founders of modern cultural history.
