Warriors and their Weapons around the Time of the Crusades : Relationships between Byzantium, the West and the Islamic World Hardback
by David Nicolle
Part of the Variorum Collected Studies series
Hardback
Description
The technological relationship between the three main civilizations of the Western world - Byzantium, the Islamic world and the West - most particularly in the area of arms, armour and military technology is a field of research for which Dr Nicolle is noted.
This volume deals principally with Western Europe and Byzantium, which for many centuries learnt from the Muslims in these matters; several articles also focus on military interactions in the Crusader states.
The work draws upon both written and archaeological sources, but above all makes use of the depictions of war and military equipment in contemporary art to examine the interconnections across the medieval world.
