🌍📜🏰✨ Happy #ManuscriptMonday! Today’s illumination comes from the Chronica Majora by Matthew Paris and offers a stunning cartographic view of the Holy Land. Can you recognise any cities along the coastline? 📖 Cambridge, Corpus Christi College, MS 26, fol. ivr

Yes, yesterday was Summer #Graduation 2024 and everything, but... Back in 1099, it was also the monumental Conquest of Jerusalem. Prof. Jonathan Phillips & The History Hub talk about the establishment of the First Crusade's ‘crusader states’ #History youtube.com/watch?v=57ZjEK…

Vous avez (trop) chaud ? Et si je vous disais que durant les croisades, les croisés ont eux aussi souffert de la chaleur, au point parfois... de mourir ? Je ne sais pas si ce thread va vous rafraîchir, mais ça vous cultivera... Un thread ⬇️!

Open access piece from the great Christopher Tyerman, on the last 50 years of Crusades scholarship. Honored that one of my books made his footnotes! tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.108…
