Download or read book Crusading Commonplaces : La Noue, Lucinge and Rhetoric against the Turks written by Michael J. Heath and published by Librairie Droz. This book was released on 1986-01-01 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'Europe au XVIe siècle a vécu à l'ombre de la menace turque. A quels auteurs cette situation n'a-t-elle pas inspiré quelque chose ? La situation des Français, à cet égard, avait quelque chose d'ambigu, à cause des alliances turques de leurs rois. La Noue rêve pourtant de croisades contre les Turcs, pour unifier catholiques et huguenots, cependant que René de Lucinge, qui était allé les voir de près, étudie les failles de la vie turque, par où on pourrait introduire une propagande affaiblissante : ce n'est alors plus la croisade mais la "guerre psychologique" qui se dessine.

Download or read book The Practices of Crusading written by Christopher Tyerman and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-04-21 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The crusades influenced western European society in the middle ages far beyond the military campaigns themselves. Reactions and involvement did not always follow the assumptions of ideology or supporters, medieval or modern. In this wide ranging collection of articles spanning thirty years, Christopher Tyerman explores the relationships between action and perception, ambition and practice, propaganda and support. One section concentrates on the role the crusade played in the politics and elite culture of the early fourteenth century, particularly in France. A further series of essays examines the nature of crusading as a phenomenon from the twelfth to the sixteenth centuries, notably the contrasts between official, literary and popular reception, and how it was variously understood by contemporaries and promoted by apologists in England, continental Europe and the Baltic. Finally, the structure of crusading armies is explored in a sequence that analyses the organisation of expeditions, including communal decision-making on the First Crusade, the sociology of recruitment and, in a previously unpublished major study, the importance of pay to crusaders from 1096 onwards.The crusades influenced western European society in the middle ages far beyond the military campaigns themselves.

Download or read book The Invention of the Crusades written by Christopher Tyerman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 1998-06-08 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What were the 'Crusades'? Were the great Christian expeditions to invade the Holy Land in fact 'Crusades' at all? In this radical and compelling new treatment, Christopher Tyerman questions the very nature of our belief in the Crusades, showing how historians writing more than a century after the First Crusade retrospectively invented the idea of the 'Crusade'. Using these much later sources, all subsequent historians up to the present day have fallen into the same trap of following propaganda from a much later period to explain events that were understood quite differently by contemporaries.

Download or read book The Debate on the Crusades, 1099–2010 written by Christopher Tyerman and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-19 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Hume, the eighteenth century philosopher, famously declared that ‘the crusades engrossed the attention of Europe and have ever since engaged the curiosity of man kind’. This is the first book length study of how succeeding generations from the First Crusade in 1099 to the present day have understood, refashioned, moulded and manipulated accounts of these medieval wars of religion to suit changing contemporary circumstances and interests. The crusades have attracted some of the leading historical writers, scholars and controversialists from John Foxe (of Book of Martyrs fame), to the philosophers G.W. Leibniz, Voltaire and David Hume, to historians such as William Robertson, Edward Gibbon and Leopold Ranke. Accessibly written, a history of histories and historians, the book will be of interest to students and researchers of crusading history from sixth form to postgraduate level and beyond and to cultural historians of the use of the past and of medievalism.
