Crusade and jihad : origins, history and aftermath
Lambert, Malcolm (Malcolm D.)2016
Book
Malcolm Lambert looks afresh at the Christian and Islamic struggle to control the holy places of Palestine and the Middle East between the seventh and thirteenth centuries. Crusade and jihad are often reckoned to be two sides of the same coin: both resonate on opposing sides in the war on terror. This simple opposition, Lambert argues, ignores crucial differences in their origins and meanings.
