Ardent Complaints and Equivocal Piety

The Portrayal of the Crusader in Medieval German Poetry

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Ardent Complaints and Equivocal Piety treats three sets of medieval German crusade poems, in most of which the crusades are pictured as a source of distress, disenchantment, or even annoyance. These groups of German poems are treated against a background of Latin crusade poems in which the crusades cause stress and distress of a different kind.
