Résumé

Charles Oman's "The Art of War in the Middle Ages" meticulously explores the evolution of military strategy, tactics, and technology from the early medieval period to the onset of the Renaissance. Emphasizing a comprehensive historical narrative, Oman employs a scholarly tone enriched with detailed analyses of battles, weaponry, and the socio-political contexts that shaped warfare. The text navigates through pivotal developments such as the emergence of chivalry, the impact of the feudal system, and the transition from cavalry-dominated armies to the incorporation of infantry, reflecting a sophisticated understanding of medieval military structures and norms.
Charles Oman (1860-1946), a noted historian and member of the Royal Historical Society, was profoundly influenced by his expertise in military history and his background in archaeology. His academic pursuits led him to examine the intricate relationships between politics, society, and warfare. Oman's research was characterized by rigorous field studies and the analysis of primary source materials, allowing him to convey the complexities of medieval conflict with both clarity and depth in this seminal work.
This book is an essential read for enthusiasts of military history, medieval studies, and strategic theory, providing a robust examination of how warfare influenced societal change in the Middle Ages.
