What defined the crusades in contrast to other wars was the opportunity for warriors to win a spiritual reward, the indulgence. In The Crusade Indulgence. Spiritual Rewards and the Theology of the Crusades, c. 1095-1216 Ane L. Bysted examines the theological and institutional development of the indulgence from the proclamation of the First Crusade to Pope Innocent III.
This first comprehensive study of crusade indulgences in more than a hundred years challenges some earlier interpretations and demonstrates how theologians, popes, and crusade preachers in the 12th century formed the concept of indulgences and argued that fighting for Christ and the Church was meritorious in the sight of God and thus worthy of a spiritual reward proclaimed by the Church

Recenzii

"[A] thoughtful and well-researched book… for anyone who desires to understand how the concept of the remission of penance became linked to the phenomenon of the crusades, this study provides a valuable analysis… [the author] manages to master a confusing and difficult story that ling has needed this type of patient and painstaking study."
Brian Patrick McGuire, Revue d'Histoire Ecclésiastique, Vol. 111, No. 1-2, 2016

"Ane Bysted’s meticulously researched book provides an outstanding contribution to the diversification of the study of the Crusades and is a most authoritative case study within the field of medieval theology. It is a challenging, yet essential read for any scholar in either of these disciplines."
Jan Vandeburie, The Journal of Religious History, Literature and Culture, Vol. 2, No. 1, 2016
