englischContrary to a widely-held assumption, the Crusades were not a phenomenon restricted to the Middle Ages. They continue today. This volume, with contributions from the Western and Arab worlds seeks to comprehend the idea of a crusade in its modern, partly secularised forms and to describe its development up to the present day. In particular, the USA is analysed in detail as the inheritor of mediaeval traditions. This approach from the perspective of the history of ideas culminates in considerations of European and Arabic cultures of history, and comes up with didactic approaches to accommodate the insights gained in the book.
