This volume represents a major contribution to the history of the
Northern Crusades and the Christianization of the Baltic lands in
the Middle Ages, from the beginnings of the Catholic mission to the
time of the Reformation. The subjects treated range from
discussions of the ideology and practice of crusade and conversion,
through studies of the motivation of the crusading countries
(Denmark, Sweden and Germany) and the effects of the crusades on
the countries of the eastern Baltic coast (Finland, Estonia,
Livonia, Prussia and Lithuania), to analyses of the literature and
historiography of the crusade. It brings together essays from both
established and younger scholars from the western tradition with
those from the modern Baltic countries and Russia, and presents in
English some of the fruits of the first decade of historical
scholarship and dialogue after the collapse of the Iron Curtain.
The depth of treatment, diversity of approaches, and accompanying
bibliography of publications make this collection a major resource
for the teaching of the Baltic Crusades.
