Crusading Peace: Christendom, the Muslim World, and Western Political Order Hardcover - 2002
by Tomaz Mastnak
First line
In the beginning there was peace: At the close of the tenth century and the commencement of the eleventh, the pax Dei, the Peace of God-a peace movement carried out in the name of God-emerged in the territories that today make up central France.
From the rear cover
"An outstanding work that successfully engages a historical phenomenon of major influence on our lives today and also looks into one of the more treacherous aspects of human thought and behavior... Mastnak shows, in a robust and convincing fashion, that the crusades and the peace movement were two faces of the same coin and analyzes in compelling detail how this dynamic played itself out from the eleventh through the fourteenth centuries."--Michael A. Sells, author of The Bridge Betrayed
"An enormously important contribution to understanding how Western Europe defined itself as Christendom and then acted on that understanding to shape new and hostile relations with other parts of the world."--Gabrielle M. Spiegel, author of The Past as Text
