Using evidence from a wealth of primary sources, Harriss successfully argues that Byzantine interactions with Western Europe, the Crusades, and the crusader states should be understood in the context of the Byzantine Empire and its ideology rather than generalized hostility between the peoples. The 3rd edition of the book includes 25 additional images, maps, and genealogical tables, as well as two significant additions: Appendix I includes seven critical Latin primary sources translated by the author, providing multiple first-hand perspectives on the subject; and Appendix II provides assessments of various representations of the subject in key fiction and non-fiction works, enriching our appreciation of the way that Byzantine interaction with the Crusades has been constructed at different times, from various standpoints, and in other languages. This book remains the keystone to understanding the East-West relationship during the Crusades and its impact on the Byzantine Empire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 646g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 163 x 242 x 25 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781350199767\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 ed\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dr JonathanHarris","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44094387093754,"sku":"9781350199767","price":77.78,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1674822610746_book.jpg?v=1675331879","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/byzantium-and-the-crusades-9781350199767","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
