Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pourquoi la croisade ? Qui l'a voulue ? combien ont-ils été à prendre la route et quels ont été leurs chefs ? Les réponses à ces questions - et à bien d'autres - passent toutes par l'évocation d'un personnage clef, Pierre l'Ermite, figure familière des manuels de nos grands-parents mais à présent négligée par nombre d'historiens, Or une critique serrée des textes montre bien qu'il y eut dès le début, derrière une unité de façade, une large diversité de mobiles et de buts, Si le pape voulait d'abord affermir son contrôle sur l'Église et sur la société, si les Grands entendaient se tailler outre-mer des principautés, les plus humbles, fussent-ils chevaliers, croyaient fermement qu'ils allaient à Jérusalem pour livrer, avec le Christ revenu, le combat final pour instaurer le royaume de Dieu sur la terre, Et c'est Pierre l'Ermite, prédicateur ardent, souvent fanatique, qui sut mettre ces masses en mouvement pour les mener vers la cité sainte ; lui dont les harangues déclenchèrent les massacres de juifs dans les villes d'Allemagne ; lui qui inlassablement releva les énergies afin que l'entreprise reste - pour le meilleur et pour le pire - ce qu'elle était au départ : une affaire spirituelle, une guerre sainte, II ne pouvait à la longue manquer d'apparaître comme un gêneur Voilà pourquoi les sources, toutes cléricales, le tiennent en suspicion, occultent son rôle et vont jusqu'à le dénigrer, Pourtant l'histoire de la " première croisade " ne saurait se dispenser d'une profonde réévaluation de l'action de ce chef charismatique au courage exceptionnel et à la popularité immense. l'aisance avec laquelle se déploie l'érudition fait de ce livre capital la plus captivante des enquêtes en remettant radicalement en cause d'interprétation traditionnelle de la croisade et de ses sources, Docteur d État ès lettres et sciences humaines (1983), Jean Flori, directeur de recherche au CNRS depuis 1987, a travaillé à l'Institut universitaire de la recherche scientifique de Rabat de 1987 à 1992. Membre dit (.entre d'études supérieures de civilisation médiévale de Poitiers, il est spécialiste de l'histoire des idées et des idéologies, en particulier de la chevalerie, de la guerre sainte et de la croisade.

Download or read book Sanctifying the Name of God written by Jeremy Cohen and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2013-03-26 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How are martyrs made, and how do the memories of martyrs express, nourish, and mold the ideals of the community? Sanctifying the Name of God wrestles with these questions against the background of the massacres of Jews in the Rhineland during the outbreak of the First Crusade. Marking the first extensive wave of anti-Jewish violence in medieval Christian Europe, these "Persecutions of 1096" exerted a profound influence on the course of European Jewish history. When the crusaders demanded that Jews choose between Christianity and death, many opted for baptism. Many others, however, chose to die as Jews rather than to live as Christians, and of these, many actually inflicted death upon themselves and their loved ones. Stories of their self-sacrifice ushered the Jewish ideal of martyrdom—kiddush ha-Shem, the sanctification of God's holy name—into a new phase, conditioning the collective memory and mindset of Ashkenazic Jewry for centuries to come, during the Holocaust, and even today. The Jewish survivors of 1096 memorialized the victims as martyrs as they rebuilt their communities during the decades following the Crusade. Three twelfth-century Hebrew chronicles of the persecutions preserve their memories of martyrdom and self-sacrifice, tales fraught with symbolic meaning that constitute one of the earliest Jewish attempts at local, contemporary historiography. Reading and analyzing these stories through the prism of Jewish and Christian religious and literary traditions, Jeremy Cohen shows how these persecution chronicles reveal much more about the storytellers, the martyrologists, than about the martyrs themselves. While they extol the glorious heroism of the martyrs, they also air the doubts, guilt, and conflicts of those who, by submitting temporarily to the Christian crusaders, survived.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of the crusades is one of the most thriving areas of medieval history. This collection of seventeen essays by leading researchers in the field reflects the best of contemporary scholarship. The subjects handled are remarkably wide-ranging, focusing on the theory and practice of crusading and the contributions which were made by the military orders. Chronologically, the essays range from the church's approach towards warfare in the pre-crusade era, to the way in which the First Crusade has been depicted in post-war fiction. Together with its companion volume, The Experience of Crusading: Volume 2. Defining the Crusader Kingdom, edited by Peter Edbury and Jonathan Phillips, this collection has been published to celebrate the 65th birthday of Jonathan Riley-Smith, the leading British historian of the crusades. The volume includes an appreciation of his work on the crusades and on the military orders.
Download or read book The Security Principle written by Frédéric Gros and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Security Principle, French philosopher Frdric Gros takes a historical approach to the concept of "security", looking at its evolution from the Stoics to the social network. With lucidity and rigour, Gros's approach is fourfold, looking at security as a mental state, as developed by the Greeks; as an objective situation and absence of all danger, as prevailed in the Middle Ages; as guaranteed by the nation state and its trio of judiciary, police and military; and finally "biosecurity", control, regulation and protection in the flux of contemporary society. In this deeply thought-provoking account, Gros's exploration of security shines a light both on its past meanings as well as its present uses, exposing the contemporary abuses of security and the pervasiveness of it in everyday life in the Global North.

Download or read book Encountering Islam on the First Crusade written by Nicholas Morton and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-07-14 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The First Crusade (1095–9) has often been characterised as a head-to-head confrontation between the forces of Christianity and Islam. For many, it is the campaign that created a lasting rupture between these two faiths. Nevertheless, is such a characterisation borne out by the sources? Engagingly written and supported by a wealth of evidence, Encountering Islam on the First Crusade offers a major reinterpretation of the crusaders' attitudes towards the Arabic and Turkic peoples they encountered on their journey to Jerusalem. Nicholas Morton considers how they interpreted the new peoples, civilizations and landscapes they encountered; sights for which their former lives in Western Christendom had provided little preparation. Morton offers a varied picture of cross cultural relations, depicting the Near East as an arena in which multiple protagonists were pitted against each other. Some were fighting for supremacy, others for their religion, and many simply for survival.

Download or read book The Social Structure of the First Crusade written by Conor Kostick and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008-05-31 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The First Crusade (1096 – 1099) was an extraordinary undertaking. Because the repercussions of that expedition have rippled on down the centuries, there has been an enormous literature on the subject. Yet, unlike so many other areas of medieval history, until now the First Crusade has failed to attract the attention of historians interested in social dynamics. This book is the first to examine the sociology of the sources in order to provide a detailed analysis of the various social classes which participated in the expedition and the tensions between them. In doing so, it offers a fresh approach to the many debates surrounding the subject of the First Crusade.
