In 1095, Pope Urban II called for an armed pilgrimage to win back the Holy Land for Christendom from Turkish domination. Over the next six centuries, territories as far apart as Palestine, the Baltic lands, and Andalusia were incorporated into Christendom by crusaders who had taken vows to wage holy war against Muslims, pagans, and heretics.
Alan V. Murray, PhD, is editor of the International Medieval Bibliography.
