War and Society in the Eastern Mediterranean, 7th-15th Centuries de Ya'acov Lev

War and Society in the Eastern Mediterranean, 7th-15th Centuries: The Medieval Mediterranean, cartea 9

Editat de Ya'acov Lev
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 noi 1996
This volume focusses on the interplay between war and society in the Eastern Mediterranean, in a period which witnessed the Arab conquests, the Seljuk invasion, the Crusades, and the Mongol incursions.
The military aspects of these momentous events have not been fully discussed so far. For the first time this book offers a synthesis of trends in military technology and its effect on society in the period from the Arab conquests to the establishment of an Ottoman hegemony.
War and Society in the Eastern Mediterranean provides for medievalists an Oriental context to the military aspects of the Crusades, and for scholars of both Middle Eastern and military history a coherent treatment of an important topic over a long period and covering many different cultures.
