Subject:

Description:

Credits: 4. Degree Requirements: Humanities. Covering the period between approximately 1050 and 1600, this course examines the conflicts between Western European Christians and others around them primarily, but not exclusively Muslims of the Middle East. While many of these conflicts were military in nature, only a small proportion of this course will discuss the details of military technology, tactics, and strategy. More attention will be paid to the broader political context in both Europe and the Middle East, the ideological underpinnings of the conflict for both Christians and Muslims, the nature of religious belief in the Middle Ages, and the impact that these conflicts had on the territories involved.
