Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Staging Holiness. The Case of Hospitaller Rhodes (ca. 1309-1522) Sofia Zoitou offers a study of the history of relic collections, devotional rituals and sites invested with special meaning in Rhodes, during a time when the island became one of the most frequented ports of call for ships carrying pilgrims from Venice to the Holy Land. Scrutinizing late medieval travel reports by pilgrims from all over Europe along with extant historical, archaeological, visual and material evidence, Sofia Zoitou traces the various forms of the Rhodian cultic sites' evolution and perception, ultimately considered as an overall artistic strategy for the staging of the sacred"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Juillet 1099. Tandis que les croisés rescapés prennent d'assaut Jérusalem, qu'ils mettent à sac dans leur folie meurtrière, frère Gérard, déjà appelé " l'hospitalier ", poursuit inlassablement son œuvre de bienfaisance en plein cœur de la tourmente, des massacres et des incendies. Soigner malades et blessés des deux camps, telle est la mission qu'il s'est imposée. Ainsi naît la première association d'aide humanitaire ; l'Ordre de Saint-Jean-de-Jérusalem. Des combats en Terre sainte aux batailles navales en Méditerranée, cette fresque narre le parcours de l'Ordre au fil des siècles. Les chevaliers-soldats jurent de ne jamais reculer, de combattre à un contre trois, de ne jamais se rendre, de ne jamais baisser la bannière de l'Ordre. Devenus moines-marins, ils sont de toutes les batailles et redoutés des plus illustres corsaires et pirates. Et s'ils en sortent vainqueurs, ce n'est souvent qu'au prix du sacrifice de nombre d'entre eux. Juin 1565. Au lever du soleil, jour de la Saint-Jean, fête de l'Ordre des moines et de leur saint patron, un spectacle odieux attend les assiégés du fort Saint-Ange. Ils découvrent, flottant sur le chenal, cloués à des pièces de bois, les cadavres de leurs frères morts au Saint-Elme. Les Turcs les ont revêtus de leur soubreveste rouge de combat mais, au-dessous, les Hospitaliers ont la poitrine ouverte en forme de croix. Tous ont le cœur arraché, la tête tranchée.

Book Les Hospitaliers   De J  rusalem    Rhodes  1050  1317

Download or read book Les Hospitaliers De J rusalem Rhodes 1050 1317 written by Alain Demurger and published by Tallandier. This book was released on 2013-01-17 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: À l’origine de l’ordre des hospitaliers de Saint-Jean de Jérusalem se trouve un hôpital fondé dans la Ville sainte au milieu du XIe siècle pour héberger les pèlerins venus prier sur le tombeau du Christ. Pendant deux siècles, les frères accueillent des voyageurs, riches ou pauvres, malades ou non, portent assistance aux déshérités et délivrent des soins médicaux aux blessés de guerre. D’abord ordre religieux, il est investi de responsabilités militaires dès le XIIe siècle avant même de devenir pleinement un ordre religieux-militaire. Pour preuve, l’apparition de frères d’armes, engagés avec les Templiers dans la défense des Lieux saints et des États latins d’Orient, et la grande forteresse du Crac des Chevaliers, qui atteste aujourd’hui encore de l’importance des moyens consacrés à cette tâche. La Terre sainte, mais aussi la péninsule Ibérique, sont le terrain d’élection de leur engagement dans les combats et la défense des forteresses. Pour mener leurs missions sur le « front », ils peuvent s’appuyer sur des ressources accumulées à « l’arrière », dans la chrétienté latine d’Occident, grâce à un puissant réseau de maisons et provinces. Chassé de Terre sainte à la chute d’Acre en 1291, l’hôpital se replie à Chypre avant de s’établir à Rhodes à partir de 1310. Assiégé par Soliman le Magnifi que, il se réfugie à Malte fi n 1521. De nos jours, l’ordre de Malte est revenu à la vocation charitable de ses débuts.
