Book Description

September 1, 1993 Medieval Mediterranean: Peoples, Economies and Cultures, 400-1500 (Book 1)
This volume brings together papers by Crusades' experts from England, France, Canada and the United States discussing the confrontation between the Franks and Muslims in 12th-century Syria, balancing the traditional European view with an Islamic perspective. Each author's individual contribution lies in the new ideas and insights to a particular topic such as new interpretations in Crusades studies, Latin jurists in the Levant, the Italian colonies, propagation of violence and propaganda, role of individual popes, the impact on islamic society as reflected in literature, religious propaganda, and diplomatic relations.
