Book excerpt: WR Chagnon and contributing editor Judith Anne Chagnon, a brother-and-sister team, have a family history that stretches back to Clovis' court. Chip, a US Army veteran with 35 years of service, channeled his love of all things medieval to create the trilogy. Judith, a journalism graduate of Suffolk University, began her writing career with the Eagle-Tribune newspaper in Massachusetts. Together these Francophiles have created a novel that explores daily Templar life from the inside out. They are already working on the final book in the series, A Templar's Journey: The Final Glory. A handsome young squire of the Knights of the Templar continues to seek redemption from eternal damnation by continuing his quest in the Holy Land. Set against the backdrop of the Crusades in the Christian Kingdom of Jerusalem in 1186-87, this sequel to A Templar's Journey: The Squire from Champagne, finds Squire Roland once again risking his life to fight for Christianity and its followers in the lands of the infidels. Now serving as councilor to the grand master of the Temple, the danger has only escalated for Roland, who developed new skills of warfare and intrigue during the first leg of his quest. He is again accompanied by staunch allies: a man known as the best knight to have entered the Templar Order, a Celtic soldier known for his combat ability and his unholy ways within the order, a brutal, street-smart warrior, and a Jewish physician who also serves as a master spy and counter spy. Although he prepares to battle in the name of the Lord, Roland cannot help but fall in love with the beautiful Lady Marie of Baux, who loves him in return just as strongly. Danger and intrigue-from his enemies in the Holy Land and those within the Knights of the Templar-will shape his destiny in a land made darker by the shadows of Islam's crescent moon.

Next thing he knew, he had been transformed into his character, first-level Paladin Hawke Lightseeker, and found himself in a corpse-filled cavern complex crawling with monsters and undead. Armed with a sentient sword, Hawke must learn the rules of a reality where magic and power-leveling are as real as swords and knives, and where you only get a limited number of respawns before you die for good. Follow Hawke as he explores the mysterious Common Realm, meets new friends and foes, battles to survive, and learns more about his growing power and inner strength.

Download or read book The Persecution of the Knights Templar Scandal Torture Trial written by Alain Demurger and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2019-01-01 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive account of history's most infamous trial, following the doomed Order of the Knights Templar from scandal to suppression. The trial of the Knights Templar is one of the most infamous in history. Accused of heresy by the king of France, the Templars were arrested and imprisoned, had their goods seized and their monasteries ransacked. Under brutal interrogation and torture, many made shocking confessions: denial of Christ, desecration of the Cross, sex acts, and more. This narrative follows the everyday reality of the trial, from the early days of scandal and scheming in 1305, via torture, imprisonment and the dissolution of the order, to 1314, when leaders Jacques de Molay and Geoffroy de Charnay were burned at the stake. Through first-hand testimony and written records of the interrogations of 231 French Templars, this book illuminates the stories of hundreds of ordinary members, some of whom testified at the trial, as well as the many others who denied the charges or retracted their confessions. This is a deeply researched and immersive account that gives a striking vision of the relentless persecution, and the oft-underestimated resistance, of the once-mighty Knights Templar.

Download or read book The Proceedings Against the Templars in the British Isles written by and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-20 with total page 714 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In October 1307 all the brothers of the military religious Order of the Temple in France were arrested on the instructions of King Philip IV and charged with heresy. In November, Pope Clement V instructed King Edward II of England to do likewise. This volume provide the first full translation of the four surviving texts of the trial proceedings that followed in Britain and Ireland, complementing the edition published in volume 1. The trial of the Templars was the first major heresy trial in the British Isles, and the proceedings reveal the Episcopate's attempts to deal with this unprecedented situation, the varying procedures followed in different countries, and how testimonies were recorded and summarised for the Church Councils which eventually decided the fate of the Order of the Temple. The testimonies given during the trial contain a wealth of information about religious beliefs among the lay population of the British Isles (both the Templars and outsiders who gave evidence during the trial), national and international mobility of lay religious, the social function of the order of the Temple in the British Isles and its relations with society at large, and the organisation and operations of the Order of the Temple at a local, national and international level. Detailed introductions to each volume describe the manuscripts and how the material was compiled and arranged, and discuss the course of the proceedings and the value of the evidence they contain. Appendices in this volume also list the names of all the Templars mentioned during the proceedings, Templar houses and the locations of the proceedings in London.
Download or read book The History of the Knights Templar written by Charles Addison and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-02-22 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon, commonly known as The Knights Templar, were among the wealthiest and most powerful of the Western Christian military orders. The organisation existed for nearly two centuries during the Middle Ages. Templar knights, in their distinctive white mantles with a red cross, were among the most skilled fighting units of the Crusades. In 1307, many of the Order's members in France were arrested, tortured into giving false confessions, and then burned at the stake. Under pressure from King Philip, Pope Clement V disbanded the Order in 1312. The abrupt disappearance of a major part of the European infrastructure gave rise to speculation and legends, which have kept the Templar name alive into the modern day. In The History of the Knights Templar Charles Addison traces the rise and fall of this legendary religious-military organization.
Download or read book The Templar Meridians written by William F. Mann and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2006-01-23 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reveals the true nature of the secret science the Templars discovered in the Holy Land that was the key to their power • Shows the cartographic knowledge that allowed the Templars to cross the Atlantic and establish settlements in the New World • Explains the connection of the Templar meridians to the journey of Lewis and Clark • Shows the role played by secret societies in the establishment of the United States The most enduring mystery surrounding the Templars concerns the nature and whereabouts of their great treasure. Whereas many believe this lost treasure contains knowledge of the bloodline of Christ, William F. Mann shows that it actually consists of an ancient science developed before the Great Flood--knowledge discovered by the Templars in the Holy Land during the Crusades and still extant today in Templar/Masonic ritual. Among other things, this knowledge enabled the Order to establish accurate latitudinal and longitudinal positions long before the foundations of the current science were laid in the seventeenth century. This allowed them to cross the Atlantic to reach the New World, where they established secret settlements and mining operations that gave them a limitless supply of precious metals and a military edge over their opponents. Pursued farther into the interior of the North American continent by their adversaries from the Old World, the Templars left artifacts, relics, and information caches at key sites, confident that future initiates could use their understanding of the science of meridians and ley lines to locate them. The author points out that not only did future masons such as Jefferson and Washington use this science as the basis of their designs for Monticello and Washington, D.C., but the true motive of the expedition of Lewis and Clark was to identify the meridians mapped by the Templars and to search for the final resting place of Prince Henry Sinclair--where the great Templar treasure could also be found.
