This text aims to provide a balanced portrait of one of the most
controversial figures of 13th-century Europe and an assessment of
the long-term significance of his career. The author describes how
Charles I was able to carve out and control a huge power block in
the Mediterranean, where he became ruler of Provence, Jerusalem and
the kingdom of Naples (including Sicily) as well as that of Anjou.
She also discusses his pivotal role in the crusades, as well as his
military reform, trading, diplomacy, learning and the arts. The
book explores through the life of Charles I of Anjou the
international power politics of 13th-century Mediterranean Europe
and shows that, as a result of his actions, the political map of
Europe was redrawn.
