商品簡介
Religious "enthusiasm," whether medieval popular movements (especially crusades), or revivalism, have provided an ongoing theme in Dickson's (history, U. of Edinburgh) work, as we read in this collection of previously published papers. The topics covered include: medieval revivalism and conversion from 1000-1500, 13th-century charisma and revivalism, the heretical Amalricians and their fate in 13th-century Paris, the Children's Crusade in 1212 (two papers), the 13th-century Shepherd's Crusade, 13th-century reactions to the sanctity of Clare of Assisi, the flagellants of 1260 and the Crusades, and late medieval saints' cults in Perugia (two papers).
