The Crusades : A Reader Paperback
Edited by S. J. Allen, Emilie Amt
Part of the Readings in Medieval Civilizations & Cultures series
Paperback
Description
The crusades have always been a source of fascination and debate.
With current world events, that interest has only grown as people try to understand the sources of conflict between the Middle East and Europe, and between Islamic and Christian peoples.
This beautiful addition to the Readings in Medieval Civilizations and Cultures series brings together an unprecedented range of primary source texts on the topic from the medieval era.
Of special note are the non-Christian materials-Muslim and Jewish sources-included along with standard European Christian texts.
Also included are Greek sources, materials on Latin crusader states, and a chapter on Spain.
Ideological, economic, social, and cultural issues are covered along with the more standard military and political concerns.
