Remembering the Crusades and Crusading: Remembering the Medieval and Early Modern Worlds

Editat de Megan Cassidy-Welch
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 sep 2016
Remembering the Crusades and Crusading examines the diverse contexts in which crusading was memorialised and commemorated in the medieval world and beyond. The collection not only shows how the crusades were commemorated in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, but also considers the longer-term remembrance of the crusades into the modern era.
This collection is divided into three sections, the first of which deals with the textual, material and visual sources used to remember. Each contributor introduces a particular body of source material and presents case studies using those sources in their own research. The second section contains four chapters examining specific communities active in commemorating the crusades, including religious communities, family groups and royal courts. Finally, the third section examines the cultural memory of crusading in the Byzantine, Iberian and Baltic regions beyond the early years, as well as the trajectory of crusading memory in the Muslim Middle East.
This book draws together and extends the current debates in the history of the crusades and the history of memory and in so doing offers a fresh synthesis of material in both fields. It will be essential reading for students of the crusades and memory.

Recenzii

"This intensely tight-knit collection will find a place on any crusade historian’s shelf. It’s tremendously wide-ranging and will immediately become the jumping off point for all sorts of future research, not just on crusading but on any aspect of the later Middle Ages. Remembering the holy war was just as important to the movement of history as the holy war itself."
— Matthew Gabriele, Virginia Tech, USA

"Remembering the Crusades and Crusading demonstrates to both students and scholars how the application of theories about materiality and cultural memory to medieval sources has illuminated our understanding of how and why the Crusades were remembered in the Middle Ages and beyond. At a time when the Crusades have re-entered our public discourse, this book could not be timelier."

—Kimberly Rivers, University of Wisconsin Oshkosh, USA.
"Overall, this book has much to its credit... there are several chapters which should serve as the ideal starting point for anyone looking to explore issues of crusading memory, and which provide important correctives and addendums to traditional ideas or avenues of scholarship. Given the impressive bibliographical data also available for each chapter, this should be a must for scholars of crusading memory, as well as university libraries and teachers of the crusades." 
— Andrew Buck, Queen Mary University of London, Medievally Speaking

Descriere

Remembering the Crusades and Crusading examines the diverse contexts in which crusading was memorialised and commemorated in the medieval world and beyond, from the preaching of the first crusade in 1095 until the fall of the city of Acre in 1291. The book offers a fresh synthesis of the long history of the crusades and includes chapters dealing with the textual, material and visual sources for remembering; particular communities of remembrance, including the family, monastic cultures, Jewish cultures, and royal cultures; and the cultural memory of crusading in the Muslim, Iberian, Byzantine and Baltic regions. This will be essential reading for students of the crusades and memory.
