Story0
"Es ist das große Turnier Himmel gegen Hölle", singt ein Troubadour Mitte des 12. Jahrhunderts über die Kreuzzüge. Wer den Konflikt mit den Augen der Gegenwart betrachtet, wird Schwierigkeiten haben, das Phänomen der Templer zu verstehen. Männer aus der aristokratischen Oberschicht verzichten auf Privilegien, Frauen und Freuden, um ein asketisches Leben zu führen. Als Ritter und Mönch in einer Person verkörpert der Templer die beiden prägenden Ideale des Mittelalters. "Denn nicht ohne Grund trägt er das Schwert; er steht im Dienst Gottes", schwärmt der heilige Bernhard von Clairvaux.

Story0
There can be no doubt that military conflict between France and England dominated European history in the 14th and 15th centuries. The Hundred Years War is of considerable interest both because of its duration and the number of theatres in which it was fought. Drawing on the latest research for this new edition, Hundred Years War expert Professor Anne Curry examines how the war can reveal much about the changing nature of warfare: the rise of infantry and the demise of the knight; the impact of increased use of gunpowder and the effect of the war on generations of people.

La Guía para viajar en el tiempo a la Inglaterra medieval no es la típica mirada a un periodo histórico. Mortimer da un giro radical a nuestra concepción de la historia: no es solo algo que se estudia, también es algo que se vive, ya sea la vida de un campesino o de un señor. A través de las crónicas diarias, las cartas, los relatos domésticos y los poemas de la época, Mortimer nos transporta al pasado y nos ofrece respuestas a preguntas que los historiadores tradicionales suelen ignorar.

Medieval queens were seen as mere dynastic trophies, yet many of the Plantagenet queens of the High Middle Ages dramatically broke away from the restrictions imposed on their sex, as Alison Weir shows in this gripping group biography of England's fourteenth-century consorts. Using personal letters and wonderfully vivid sources, Alison Weir evokes the lives of five remarkable queens: Marguerite of France, Isabella of France, Philippa of Hainault, Anne of Bohemia and Isabella of Valois.

A ruthless Viking warrior who named his most prized battle weapon after the Norse goddess of death, Olav Haraldsson and his mercenaries wrought terror and destruction from the Baltic to Galicia in the early eleventh century. Thousands were put to the sword, enslaved, or ransomed. In England, Canterbury was sacked, its archbishop murdered, and London Bridge pulled down. The loot amassed from years of plunder helped Olav win the throne of Norway, and a century after his death he was proclaimed "Eternal King" and has been a national hero there ever since.

Byzantium. The name evokes grandeur and exoticism—gold, cunning, and complexity. In this unique book, Judith Herrin unveils the riches of a quite different civilization. Avoiding a standard chronological account of the Byzantine Empire's millennium-long history, she identifies the fundamental questions about Byzantium—what it was, and what special significance it holds for us today.

By no means prepared by birth, education, or training for leadership, Wallace nevertheless rose to prominence during the Wars of Independence, leading forces which broke the sequence of English victories and re-energizing and inspiring his countrymen in the process. While others, ostensibly his betters, yielded and collaborated, Wallace set an example of constancy and perseverance and became the Guardian of Scotland. Even his terrible death in London in 1305 can be seen as a victory as it provided inspiration for the continuance of the struggle against English domination.

Crusading fervor gripped Europe for over 200 years, creating one of the most extraordinary, vivid episodes in world history. Whether the Crusades are regarded as the most romantic of Christian expeditions, or the last of the barbarian invasions, they have fascinated generations ever since, and their legacy of ideas and imagery has resonated through the centuries, inspiring Hollywood movies and great works of literature. Even today, to invoke the Crusades is to stir deep cultural myths, assumptions and prejudices.

In dieser Ausgabe von G/Geschichte dreht sich alles um das Leben im Mittelalter: Schweine suhlen sich vor den Häusern, und von den Werkstätten der Gerber breitet sich ein infernalischer Gestank aus. Arme, Bettler und zuweilen Lepröse bevölkern die Gassen. Vor den Mauern verwesen die Körper der Gehenkten. Die Stadt ist kein romantischer Ort, aber sie verspricht eine Chance auf Freiheit von den Ketten der Leibeigenschaft.

The history of Jerusalem is one of conflict, faith, and empire. Few cities have been attacked as often and as savagely. This was no less true in the Middle Ages. From the Persian sack in 614 through the bloody First Crusade and beyond, Jerusalem changed hands countless times. But despite these horrific acts of violence, its story during this period is also one of interfaith tolerance and accord. In this gripping history, John D. Hosler explores the great clashes and delicate settlements of medieval Jerusalem.

Il guerriero a cavallo, con il suo prestigio anche simbolico, ci perviene dal profondo della preistoria, in termini tanto di valori quanto di pratiche di vita e di combattimento. Dagli sciamani centroasiatici ai guerrieri barbari, dagli dèi nordici ai martiri cristiani, senza dimenticare l'evoluzione dell'allevamento, l'affinarsi delle tecniche metallurgiche, lo sviluppo dell'arte della guerra e le relative "visioni del mondo".

Questo libro traccia un grande affresco sul pellegrinaggio dalla penisola italica verso i Luoghi Santi, nel periodo compreso fra il Medioevo e la conquista ottomana di Gerusalemme del 1516. Forma devozionale assai diffusa nel mondo cristiano medievale, figlio delle tradizioni ebraiche e greco-romane, il pellegrinaggio, metafora del destino dell'uomo che "cammina" verso la morte per la salvezza, segna un fenomeno storico rilevante, non solo per gli aspetti religiosi presenti in esso, ma anche per quelli culturali, sociali, economici e artistici.

The Battle of Hastings and its aftermath nearly wiped out the leading families of Anglo-Saxon England—so what happened to the children this conflict left behind? Conquered offers a fresh take on the Norman Conquest by exploring the lives of those children, who found themselves uprooted by the dramatic events of 1066. Among them were the children of Harold Godwineson and his brothers, survivors of a family shattered by violence who were led by their courageous grandmother Gytha to start again elsewhere.

Fourteenth-century Italy was chaotic: mercenaries swarmed across the land as competing city-states attempted to vie with each other for power, while pestilence and famine decimated populations. Into this cauldron was born Giangalezzo Visconti, a man who perfectly exemplified all the contradictions of his age. E. R. Chamberlin's The Count of Virtue is a remarkable study of the life and times of Giangaleazzo Visconti that provides fascinating insight into the political, social and cultural world of fourteenth-century Italy.
