BYZANTIUM AND THE CRUSADES
Book • 2022
This book chronologically surveys Byzantine history during the time of the Crusades, focusing on the attitudes of the Byzantine ruling elites towards the Crusades and their interactions with Western Europe and the crusader states.
Harris argues that the Byzantine interactions are best understood through the ideology of the Byzantine Empire rather than generalized hostility between peoples.
The book includes an analysis of key events, such as the First, Second, and Fourth Crusades, and the impact of these events on Byzantine-Latin relations.
The third edition incorporates recent scholarship, additional images, maps, and genealogical tables, as well as new appendices discussing primary sources and representations in fiction and non-fiction works.
