The Horns of ḤaṭṭīnYad Izhak Ben-Zvi, 1992 - 368 pagine The Battle of the Horns of Hattin (4th July, 1187), at which Saladin's armies triumphed over those of the Crusaders, entailed the downfall of the Frankish Kingdom of Jerusalem. This collection of papers results from a conference held in commemoration of the eighth centennial of this crucial battle. Eight of the papers deal with the battle itself or its immediate aftermath; eight others examine ideological, social and military aspects of crusading; and a further eight discuss the history of the Frankish Kingdom and its art and architecture. The volume concludes with a transcript of a 1984 symposium on Joshua Prawer's thesis that this kingdom constituted the first European colonial society. |
