À propos de ce contenu audio

 The Crusades were a tumultuous series of religious wars waged between 1096 and 1272, aimed at reclaiming the Holy Land from Islamic control. To the Latin Church, Crusaders were seen as penitent pilgrims, their sins absolved in their quest for spiritual redemption. British historian George Cox delves into the lives of churchmen, noble warriors leaving behind their families, cunning Venetian merchants, and Byzantine emperors who took advantage of the knights’ fervor. He narrates tales of profound sacrifice and brutal violence, the intricate dynastic struggles within the Crusader States, and the harsh realities of sieges, famine, disease, and ambushes. This historical account also explores the intersection and clash of two rich cultures. - Summary by Pamela Nagami, M.D.Copyright Plays and Dramas Spiritualité
