HIST 335: Crusades

3.00 Credits

College of Charleston

This course is intended to introduce students to that great meeting of Christian and Islamic civilizations in the Middle Ages known as the Crusades. Often dismissed as a simple "mistake" in the history of Christianity or as a horrific catalyst to modern radical Islam's condemnation of the West, crusading was in fact a complex phenomenon that changed enormously over the course of the Middle Ages. The Crusades are a lens through which we can examine not just warfare but attitudes toward religion, social order, monarchy, and many other elements of both western and near eastern civilization.
