Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles how the Third Crusade unfolded during the late 12th century. It begins by tracing the evolution of the idea of a Third Crusade and discusses what factors contributed to its eventual implementation. The author also explains how the Second Crusade failed to achieve its objectives of recapturing the city of Jerusalem from the Saracens, which was the main driver behind launching another crusade so soon after the Second. The book also includes biographical information on King Richard of England, who was a key figure in the Third Crusade, and how differences between him and King Phillip of France affected the course of the war. The book concludes by assessing the long-term impact of the Third Crusade on the religious and political landscape of Europe and the Middle East.

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the motivations, religious sentiments and social upheaval that led to the emergence of the Crusades from 1095-1291. The author's exploration starts with Peter the Hermit's pilgrimage to Jerusalem and his subsequent mission to preach across Europe for a holy war, sparking religious fervour and a widespread belief that God willed the Christian liberation of the Holy Land. Drawing on historical accounts and the author's own insights, the book examines the profound impact of the Crusades on Europe and the Middle East. It analyses the complex interplay of religious zeal, political ambitions, and socio-economic factors that drove the movement, as well as the profound social and cultural consequences it had for both Christians and Muslims. The author traces the experiences of the Crusaders from their initial triumphs to their eventual setbacks and failures. The book explores the moral ambiguities and inherent contradictions within the Crusades, shedding light on the motivations of the participants, from the piety of the devout to the greed and opportunism of more worldly actors. Ultimately, this book provides a nuanced and thought-provoking examination of the Crusades, revealing their profound influence on the shaping of the medieval world and the enduring legacies they left behind in both East and West.
