Описание: This study provides a new overview of chivalry, which formed a fundamental element of medieval society.

Описание: This is the first comprehensive study of the unprecedented range of writings on warfare and knighthood produced in France during the Hundred Years War. Craig Taylor sets the debates in context, challenging modern, romantic assumptions about chivalry and investigating the complexities of cultural representations and expectations of aristocratic warriors.

Описание: King Alfonso VIII of Castile: Government, Family and War brings together a diverse group of scholars whose work concerns the reign of Alfonso VIII of Castile (1158-1215). This was a critical period in the history of the Iberian Peninsula: it was in these years that the conflict between the Christian north and the Moroccan empire of the Almohads, which dominated the south, was at its most intense. It was also in these same years that the political divisions and warfare between the five Christian kingdoms reached its high-water mark. From his troubled ascension as a child, to his victory at Las Navas de Tolosa near the end of his 57-year reign, Alfonso VIII and his kingdom were the at epicenter of many of the most dramatic events of the era and reflected its challenging dynamics. The historians in this volume take up these events and challenges. Topics covered include the image and ideas of kingship promoted by Alfonso VIII's chancery; the king's economic policies, and in particular the use of coinage to promote the kingdom of Castile; the battle of Las Navas de Tolosa, perhaps the most famous event in the long reign of Alfonso VIII, as well as the king's lengthy career as a crusader; the growth of the military orders during Alfonso's reign, and their relationship to royal government; the remarkably amicable relationship between Alfonso VIII and Pedro II of Arag n; the king's relationship with the papacy; the intersection of Latin Christian, Arab Christian, and Islamic thought in Toledo during Alfonso's rule; a prosopographical study of the Castilian episcopate during Alfonso's reign; the family of the king and his wife, and the role their many daughters played in dynastic and political projects; and the oft-contested Infantazgo region along the borders of Castile and Le n.
The epic battle for control of the Strait of Gibraltar waged by Castile, Morocco, and Granada in the late thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries is a major, but often overlooked, chapter in the history of the Christian reconquest of Spain. After the Castilian conquest of Seville in 1248 and the submission of the Muslim kingdom of Granada as a vassal state, the Moors no longer loomed as a threat and the reconquest seemed to be over. Still, in the following century, the Castilian kings, prompted by ideology and strategy, attempted to dominate the Strait. As self-proclaimed heirs of the Visigoths, they aspired not only to reconstitute the Visigothic kingdom by expelling the Muslims from Spain but also to conquer Morocco as part of the Visigothic legacy. As successive bands of Muslims over the centuries had crossed the Strait from Morocco into Spain, the kings of Castile recognized the strategic importance of securing Algeciras, Gibraltar, and Tarifa, the ports long used by the invaders. At a time when European enthusiasm for the crusade to the Holy Land was on the wane, the Christian struggle for the Strait received the character of a crusade as papal bulls conferred the crusading indulgence as well as ancillary benefits. The Gibraltar Crusade had mixed results. Although the Castilians seized Gibraltar in 1309 and Algeciras in 1344, the Moors eventually repossessed them. Only Tarifa, captured in 1292, remained in Castilian hands. Nevertheless, the power of the Marinid dynasty of Morocco was broken at the battle of Salado in 1340, and for the remainder of the Middle Ages Spain was relieved of the threat of Moroccan invasion. While the reconquest remained dormant during the late fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries, Ferdinand and Isabella conquered Granada, the last Muslim outpost in Spain, in 1492. In subsequent years Castile fulfilled its earlier aspirations by establishing a foothold in Morocco.
