About this product
Art. : 015-1001
The Crusades are one of the most fascinating themes in world history. In the XI-XIII centuries, the interests of Christian and Islamic civilizations clashed, and the whole of Western Europe rose up to fight against the Muslims, who had conquered most of the Middle Eastern territories and were already an immediate threat to the Christian Byzantine Empire. The pilgrims who moved East were united by a common and main goal - the liberation of Jerusalem (with the Holy Sepulchre) from Muslims, who were now perceived as pagan barbarians and desecrators of the Holy Land. The Crusades were surrounded by an aura of romance and greatness, chivalrous spirit and courage, so representatives of all social strata of Western European society participated in them: kings and commoners, the highest feudal nobility and clergy, knights are their servants. Everyone's motives were different: some sought to enrich themselves, others were attracted by a thirst for adventure, others were driven solely by religious feelings, hoping thus to earn forgiveness of sins. In addition to the vivid and fascinating history of the Crusades, the book by the famous Russian Byzantine, academician F. I. Uspensky (1845-1928) is full of big names - the first king of Jerusalem, Gottfried of Bouillon, the German Emperor Frederick Barbarossa, the English king Richard the Lionheart and many other legendary kings and knights.
