I am doing a project on the crusades and I have run into a problem I cant find on the internet. I have to answer “How did the crusades influence Christianity.” If anyone could help me I would be grateful. Thank you for your time
See if you can find Peter Frankopan’s book The Call From The East and/or Paul Cobb’s The Race for Paradise. What’s especially important here is the question of how the Crusades impacted the relationship between Western and Eastern Christianity, and between the two I think you’ll find a lot of material to work with!
Hi - we as mods have approved this thread, because while this is a homework question, it is asking for clarification or resources, rather than the answer itself, which is fine according to our rules. This policy is further explained in this Rules Roundtable thread and this META Thread.
