While focusing on the relationship between the papacy and the
14th-century crusades, this study also illuminates other fields of
activity in Avignon, such as papal taxation and interaction with
Byzantium. Using recent research, Housley covers all areas where
crusading occurred--including the eastern Mediterranean, Spain,
eastern Europe, and Italy--and analyzes the Curia's approach to
related issues such as peacemaking between warring Christian
powers, the work of Military Orders, and western attempts to
maintain a trade embargo on Mamluk, Egypt. Placing the papal
policies of Avignon firmly in context, the author demonstrates that
the period witnessed the relentless erosion of papal control over
the crusades.
