The Fourth Lateran Council of 1215 is often considered as the high water-mark for the Medieval Church with its decisions affecting the cultural, social, religious and intellectual history of the Later Medieval World. The council was also a major event in the history of the crusades not only because the reform of the church and the recovery of the Holy Land were the central concerns of Pope Innocent III (1198-1216) but also because at the time of the council political decisions were made which affected all theatres of crusading and the canons of the council dealt with issues concerning piety and economics which had very long-term implications for the crusading movement. This book, bringing together an international team of scholars, is the first to deal with Fourth Lateran and the crusades in entirety and argues for the centrality of the council in the history of the crusades. It will be of interest not only to scholars of the history of the crusades but also to those interested in the history of the religious life of the Middle Ages as well to students of the particular areas and themes under discussion.

Hardback. Condition: New. Volume seven in the Outremer: Studies in the Crusades and the Latin East series, edited by Jessalynn L. Bird and Damian J. Smith. This collection of essays by an international group of contributors addresses the Fourth Lateran Council of 1215 in relation to the crusading movement, considering the political decisions taken around the council and the long-term consequences of its canons for crusade piety, finance, and organisation under Innocent III and his successors. The volume is arranged in four parts, moving from the council itself and the affairs of the Latin East to the crusades in the Baltic and the Iberian Peninsula, and closing with studies on the decree Ad liberandam, crusader rights, and mission. Individual chapters treat, among other subjects, the Livonian crusade in Cistercian writing, Bishop Albert of Riga and the conversion of Livonia, the Virgin at the Lateran and the Baltic crusades, Archbishop Rodrigo, Honorius III and the Fifth Crusade in Spain, Mediterranean trade and the millares coinage after Lateran IV, the protection of crusader rights during the crusades of Frederick II, and echoes of the council's crusade and mission agenda in thirteenth-century manuscripts. Illustrated with five black-and-white images; text in English and French, with an index. Seller Inventory # OA-260405-shelf-22-025
