Dinamični srednji vek
Kada je srednji vek posredi, prve asocijacije su varvarstvo, zaostalost, epidemije strašnih bolesti, ekstremna pobožnost, rašireno sujeverje, brutalno nasilje, memljive tamnice ... ukratko - sveopšte crnilo i jad. Švedski istoričar Mihael Nurdberg potrudio se da „rehabilituje“ srednji vek i pokazao se kao izvanredan branitelj ove epohe svetske istorije. Njegova knjiga "Dinamični srednji vek", prvi put štampana 1984, a potom i 1995. godine, pripada onim dragocenim studijama koje na nov način progovaraju o staroj temi. Nurdberg polazi od činjenice da period srednjeg veka, koji se u nekim delovima Evrope protezao sve do početaka XVII stoleća, nije koherentan. Zaključuje i da nije preterano reći da početak srednjeg veka i njegov kraj imaju malo toga zajedničkog. Autor se ne libi da kaže da bi možda termin "srednji vek" trebalo ukinuti, naglašavajući da su se ljudi kasnog srednjeg veka, poput onih iz epohe renesanse kojima se toliko divimo, takođe živo i strasno zanimali za domete antičke civilizacije, što znači da su čitail i prevodila dela antike i dodavali im neke svoje komentare. Dihotomija srednji vek - renesansa možda i nije drugo do optička varka. Nurdberg stoga s razlogom ukazuje na relativnost i uslovnost svih periodizacija svetske istorije.
