This book provides case studies which together show students and
researchers alike the benefit of taking beliefs about the
supernatural as an important factor in accounting for political
authority and beliefs about warfare. Although contributions mainly
focus on medieval and early modern Europe, the early chapters reach
into antiquity and the later ones into modernity exploring how
these claims continue to influence military epistemology, the
interpretation of conflict and the decision that life-taking is
just. This book provides medieval and early modern history students
and researchers with an understanding of religion and conflict and
of the enduring role of beliefs about the supernatural in the
construction of authority and the conduct of war.
