The Templars: Selected Sources

Cuadernos de Historia 16 #219

by Malcolm Barber (Translator)

The Templars were members of a medieval monastic order, later accused of denying Christ and other heresies. The Order was subject to a torturous inquisition period during the 14th century and ultimately dissolved. This is a unique collection of translated sources, which in addition to documenting the origins of the Order and the circumstances of its suppression and dissolution, examines the many and varied facets of its activities during the 12th and 13th centuries. It will be of interest to anyone interested in the medieval period, and is an invaluable source for those wanting to find out more about this most fascinating and enigmatic of institutions.

Reviews

[S. W. · Rating 3 out of 5]

Una lectura introductoria que deja mucho que desear. Otorga muchos gajos de información (reyes clave para el entendimiento del desarrollo de la historia, papas, obispos, países, guerras, inscripciones, pinturas...) SIN DAR CONTEXTO.

Así que, para tener un punto de partida y activar el modo hiperfijación, este es tu inicio.
