Description

Explore a primary historical account with The Conquest of the Holy Land by Saladin. This volume provides a critical edition and English translation of the Libellus de expugnatione Terrae Sanctae per Saladinum. As the most substantial contemporary Latin account of the 1187 conquest of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, this text offers a direct window into a transformative era of medieval history. Written by a churchman who was present in Jerusalem during the siege, the narrative combines historical facts with biblical exegesis. It captures the profound grief felt throughout western Christendom following the loss of the Holy Land, an event that eventually sparked the Third Crusade. This book is an essential resource for students, historians, and anyone interested in the Crusades and the medieval history of the Middle East.
