This volume focuses on the complex and often overlooked topic of crusading activities and the crusade movement on the fringes of Latin Christendom in the time frame from approximately 1300 to the beginning of the sixteenth century. It covers a period widely considered as a time of significant political, cultural and religious changes in Europe. A period in which Western Christianity was on the one hand still expanding (vide Lithuania and the western Rus and later the Spanish, Portuguese, French and English expansion in the Americas, Africa and South-East Asia) and on the other hand facing two mighty opponents: the Ottoman Empire and Muscovy. On its eastern and southeastern frontiers, Latin Christian expansion came to a gradual halt — here, the West was now largely under siege! Alone the political, logistical and ultimately also military feasibility of a large-scale crusade to liberate Jerusalem had now receded into a purely theoretical and practically almost unenforceable far distance. Ranging in scope from the Baltic Sea region to the Balkans and Iberia, this book’s nineteen papers explore how these developments influenced the continuation and adaptation of crusading ideas and activities during this later period of crusades.

The First Crusade (1095-1101) was the stimulus for a substantial boom in Western historical writing in the first decades of the twelfth century, beginning with the so-called "eyewitness" accounts of the crusade and extending to numerous second-hand treatments in prose and verse. From the time when many of these accounts were first assembled in printed form by Jacques Bongars in the early seventeenth century, and even more so since their collective appearance in the great nineteenth-century compendium of crusade texts, the Recueil des historiens des croisades, narrative histories have come to be regarded as the single most important resource for the academic study of the early crusade movement. But our understanding of these texts is still far from satisfactory. This ground-breaking volume draws together the work of an international team of scholars. It tackles the disjuncture between the study of the crusades and the study of medieval history-writing, setting the agenda for future research into historical narratives about or inspired by crusading. The basic premise that informs all the papers is that narrative accounts of crusades and analogous texts should not be primarily understood as repositories of data that contribute to a reconstruction of events, but as cultural artefacts that can be interrogated from a wide range of theoretical, methodological and thematic perspectives

Jacques de Vitry, né dans le troisième quart du XIIe siècle et mort à Rome en 1240, est issu de la génération qui, au tournant du siècle, fut acteur et témoin des transformations intervenues en Occident chrétien et dans l'Église en particulier. Homme de savoir et d'action, Jacques nous a laissé dans des écrits variés et nombreux le témoignage de ses expériences : l'étudiant parisien, le chanoine régulier du prieuré d'Oignies, le prédicateur de la croisade contre les Albigeois et les Sarrasins, l'évêque d'Acre acteur de la cinquième croisade, le cardinal de l'Église romaine. On découvre ainsi une personnalité complexe et attachante chez laquelle trois traits de caractère ne cessent de se répondre : la passion de l'étude associée à l'acuité du regard ; l'ambition de servir ; la recherche d'une voie spirituelle patiemment explorée au fil de l'expérience et de l'âge

Au terme d'une enquête minutieuse à travers les archives et les chroniques médiévales, l'auteur réhabilite les grandes consciences qui, face aux Croisades, ont plaidé pour la tolérance, ainsi qu'un humanisme ancré dans la foi. Il rompt avec l'image des pèlerins armés partis conquérir les lieux saints et rétablir la foi chrétienne dans des provinces dissidentes.
