 | Steven Runciman - A History the Crusades (1951).jpg Rozmiar 70 KB |
This book is intended to be the first volume of three, to cover the history of the movement that we call the Crusades, from its birth in the eleventh cen tury to its decline in the fourteenth, and of the states that it created in the Holy Land and in neighbouring countries. I hope in a second volume to give a history and description of the kingdom of Jerusalem and its relations with the peoples of the Near East, and of the Crusades of the twelfth century, and in a third a history of the kingdom of Acre and die later Crusades.Whether we regard diem as the most tremendous and most romantic of Christian adventures or as the last of the barbarian invasions, the Crusades form a central fact in medieval history.
