The Fourth Crusade (1201-1204), launched to restore Jerusalem to
Christian control, veered widely off course, finally landing at
Constantinople which it conquered and sacked. The effects of the
crusade were far-reaching during the Middle Ages and remain
powerful even today, which explains the continued vibrancy of its
historiography. This volume, based on studies presented at the
Sixth Conference of the Society for the Study of the Crusades and
the Latin East in Istanbul, Turkey in 2004, represents some of the
best new research on this fascinating event. With the "Diversion
Question" of the past centuries now largely settled, these studies
focus on three aspects of current scholarship: evaluations of the
event itself, investigations into the aftermath of the conquest of
Constantinople in 1204, and analyses of the evolving perceptions
and memories of the event in Europe and the Middle East. Together
these essays help to place the Fourth Crusade within the larger
context of medieval Mediterranean history as well as larger issues
such as agency, accommodation, and memory that inform new aspects
of modern historiography.
