Between Sword and Prayer is a broad-ranging anthology focused on
the involvement of medieval clergy in warfare and a variety of
related military activities. The essays address, on the one hand,
the issue of clerical participation in combat, in organizing
military campaigns, and in armed defense, and on the other,
questions surrounding the political, ideological, or religious
legitimization of clerical military aggression. These perspectives
are further enriched by chapters dealing with the problem of the
textual representation of clergy who actively participated in
military affairs. The essays in this volume span Latin Christendom,
encompassing geographically the four corners of medieval Europe:
Western, East-Central, Northern Europe, and the Mediterranean.
Contributors are Carlos de Ayala Martinez, Genevieve
Buhrer-Thierry, Chris Dennis, Pablo Dorronzoro Ramirez, Lawrence G.
Duggan, Daniel Gerrard, Robert Houghton, Carsten Selch Jensen,
Radoslaw Kotecki, Jacek Maciejewski, Ivan Majnaric, Monika
Michalska, Michael Edward Moore, Craig M. Nakashian, John S. Ott,
Katherine Allen Smith, and Anna Wasko.
