A Chronology of the Crusades provides a day-by-day development of
the Crusading movement, the Crusades and the states created by them
through the medieval period. Beginning in the run-up to the First
Crusade in 1095, to the fall of Constantinople in 1453, and ending
with the Turkish attack on Belgrade in 1456, this reference is a
comprehensive guide to the events of each Crusade, concentrating on
the Near East, but also those Christian expeditions sanctioned by
the Papacy as 'Crusades' in the medieval era. As well as clashes
between Christians and Muslims in the Latin States, Timothy Venning
also chronicles the Albigensian Crusade, clashes in Anatolia and
the Balkans and the Reconquista in the Iberian Peninsula. Both
detailed and accessible, this chronology draws together material
from contemporary Latin/Frankish, Byzantine and Arab/Muslim sources
with assessment and explanation to produce a readable narrative
which gives students an in-depth overview of one of the most
enduringly fascinating periods in medieval history. Including an
introduction by Peter Frankopan which summarises and contextualises
the period, this book is an essential resource for students and
academics alike.
