Roads of the Middle Ages: Knights, Robbers, Nomads, Saints
14.99 €
This book incorporates stories of both warriors - samurai, Vikings, crusaders, and knights - and the cities, castles, and monasteries that existed in the Middle Ages. What is harakiri? On what principle was the Japanese army built? How was the Viking drakkar organized? What cities did the Crusaders besiege and what did they accomplish?
Equally important in the book is everything to do with religion. Between the warrior Joan of Arc, the Old Russian princes Boris and Gleb, and Protopope Avvakum - an abyss of differences. But all of them are united by a fiery faith. What did Joan of Arc strive for? What were the princes Boris and Gleb famous for? The Middle Ages were cruel and beautiful, bloody and religious, Christian and pagan... And at the same time - incredibly mysterious.
