Zusammenfassung: | For the last 150 years the historiography of the Crusades has been dominated by nationalist and colonialist discourses in Europe and the Levant. These modern histories have interpreted the Crusades in terms of dichotomous camps, Frankish and Muslim. In this revisionist study, Ronnie Ellenblum presents an interpretation of Crusader historiography that instead defines military and architectural relations between the Franks, local Christians, Muslims and Turks in terms of continuous dialogue and mutual influence. Through close analysis of siege tactics, defensive strategies and the structure and distribution of Crusader castles, Ellenblum relates patterns of crusader settlement to their environment and demonstrates the influence of opposing cultures on tactics and fortifications. He argues that fortifications were often built according to economic and geographic considerations rather than for strategic reasons or to protect illusory 'frontiers', and that Crusader castles are the most evident expression of a cultural dialogue between east and west |

The last years of the Latin kingdom: a new balance of power; Conclusion For the last 150 years the historiography of the Crusades has been dominated by nationalist and colonialist discourses in Europe and the Levant. These modern histories have interpreted the Crusades in terms of dichotomous camps, Frankish and Muslim. In this revisionist study, Ronnie Ellenblum presents an interpretation of Crusader historiography that instead defines military and architectural relations between the Franks, local Christians, Muslims and Turks in terms of continuous dialogue and mutual influence. Through close analysis of siege tactics, defensive strategies and the structure and distribution of Crusader castles, Ellenblum relates patterns of crusader settlement to their environment and demonstrates the influence of opposing cultures on tactics and fortifications. He argues that fortifications were often built according to economic and geographic considerations rather than for strategic reasons or to protect illusory 'frontiers', and that Crusader castles are the most evident expression of a cultural dialogue between east and west Geschichte 1920-1990 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte Crusades / Historiography Castles / Middle East / History Geschichte (DE-588)4020517-4 gnd rswk-swf Burg (DE-588)4009104-1 gnd rswk-swf Geschichtsschreibung (DE-588)4020531-9 gnd rswk-swf Kreuzfahrerburg (DE-588)4165647-7 gnd rswk-swf Kreuzzüge (DE-588)4073802-4 gnd rswk-swf Kunst (DE-588)4114333-4 gnd rswk-swf Naher Osten Kreuzfahrerstaaten (DE-588)4033077-1 gnd rswk-swf Kreuzzüge (DE-588)4073802-4 s Geschichtsschreibung (DE-588)4020531-9 s Geschichte 1920-1990 z 1\p DE-604 Kreuzfahrerstaaten (DE-588)4033077-1 g Kunst (DE-588)4114333-4 s Geschichte (DE-588)4020517-4 s 2\p DE-604 Burg (DE-588)4009104-1 s 3\p DE-604 Kreuzfahrerburg (DE-588)4165647-7 s 4\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-12364-8 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-86083-3 https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511497247 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
