Beskrivelse
Discover how the medieval concept of crusading shaped Western identity and continued to influence society long after the Middle Ages.
An exploration of crusading as a complex and enduring phenomenon across medieval Europe and beyond.
The idea of crusading was a multifaceted force that could be directed against a wide range of enemies and adapted to various regions across Latin Western Europe. Stretching from Norway to Sicily and from the Western Isles to the Eastern Baltic, crusading took on local forms and meanings.
This movement triggered significant economic and social changes and fostered a new acceptance of warfare and violence as tools to defend and promote what was seen as good. Crusading was widely encouraged and spread through all available media, including the revolutionary printing press from the late 15th century onwards.
This book delves into the different expressions of crusading within their historical settings and examines how the concept was used metaphorically throughout the Middle Ages and beyond.
