Résumé

In the annals of medieval Europe, few forces were as transformative and enduring as the Crusades-those centuries-long military campaigns framed as pilgrimages, fueled by spiritual fervor, and cloaked in the language of salvation. Yet beyond the bloodied fields of Antioch or the walls of Jerusalem, the true battleground of the Crusades extended into the realm of imagination, literature, and ideology.
Here, epic poetry emerged not merely as entertainment but as a powerful tool of persuasion, framing the Christian-Muslim conflict not as a matter of politics or economics, but as a sacred duty-divinely sanctioned and morally exalted. This book begins its exploration in that charged literary domain, where heroes did not just fight, but bled for God; where kings were avatars of divine justice; and where the "other, " the Muslim, was rendered monstrous or heretical to justify the crusader's blade.
