Synopsis
Filled with surprising details, The Knights Templar tells the story of the chivalric orders founded during the Crusades, their rise and decline, and how their religious and military aspects were reconciled. It chronologically follows from the foundation of the Knights of St Peter in 1053 to the Crusades, from the Teutonic Knights to the Reconquista and on to the Hospitallers' ventures in the Mediterranean and Caribbean., This fascinating illustrated history delves into the chivalric orders originally founded during the Crusades--revealing the truth behind some of Europe's most misunderstood organizations. The Templars, the Knights Hospitallers, the Teutonic Knights: the chivalric orders founded during the Crusades evoke romantic images of warrior monks who were fierce but spiritual, pious yet battle ready. But what were they really like? How did their organizations form, rise, and decline? And how much of what we believe about them is myth? The Knights Templar tells the stories of the major and minor military orders from the eleventh century to--in the case of the surviving orders--the present day. Organized chronologically, it follows the fates of orders, from the foundation of the Knights of St Peter in 1053 to the major crusading era in the Holy Land in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, from the Teutonic Knights in the Baltic to the Reconquista in Iberia and on to the Hospitallers' later ventures in the Mediterranean and even in the Caribbean. Full of surprising details, the book not only explores how the military and religious aspects of the orders were reconciled, but also looks more broadly at the orders' work, from the Templars' role in the development of modern banking to hospital, castle, and cathedral building, to the Teutonic Knights' treatment of nonbelievers, to the Hospitallers' battles against Barbary pirates., Nowhere did the tensions between the idealist and the realist strands in Christianity show more starkly than in the question of war, its rights and wrongs. Soldiers of Christ in the most literal sense, the warrior monks of the Christian chivalric orders that sprung from the Crusader movement personified this tension, upholding the tenets of Christianity while waging holy war against non-believers. Illustrated with 180 photographs, artworks and maps, The Knights Templar is a fascinating history of Europe's Christian military orders. Book jacket.
