This engaging narrative history sets the 70-year period of papal exile in the south of France against the context of Europe's turbulent transition from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance, which saw a rise in religious conflict, the advent of the Black Death and the beginnings of the Hundred Years War, and transitions in art and architecture in the region.
