The Crusades are one of those dark chapters in history that we would rather forget, especially religious people. In name of the church, or other religions, people killed, destroyed, looted, and burned cities to the ground. There is nothing "holy" about attacking and plundering, yet this is what they did. The Crusades were a series of spiritual fights in the Middle Ages period that were begun, supported, and sometimes ordered by the Latin Church. The most popular of these Crusades were those to the Holy Land between 1095 and 1291, which aimed to recover Jerusalem and its environments from Islamic rule.

Pagans and Christians in the Late Roman Empire: New Evidence, New Approaches 4th-8th Centuries By Marianne Saghy
2018 | 384 Pages | ISBN: 9633862558 | PDF | 15 MB
Do the terms pagan and Christian, transition from paganism to Christianity still hold as explanatory devices to apply to the political, religious and cultural transformation experienced Empire-wise? Revisiting pagans and Christians in Late Antiquity has been a fertile site of scholarship in recent years: the paradigm shift in the interpretation of the relations between pagans and Christians replaced the old conflict model with a subtler, complex approach and triggered the upsurge of new explanatory models such as multiculturalism, cohabitation, cooperation, identity, or group cohesion.This collection of essays inscribes itself into the revisionist discussion of pagan-Christian relations over a broad territory and time-span, the Roman Empire from the fourth to the eighth century. A set of papers argues that if paganism had never been fully extirpated or denied by the multiethnic educated elite that managed the Roman Empire, Christianity came to be presented by the same elite as providing a way for a wider group of people to combine true philosophy and right religion. The speed with which this happened is just as remarkable as the long persistence of paganism after the sea-change of the fourth century that made Christianity the official religion of the State. For a long time afterwards, pagans and Christians lived in between polytheistic and monotheist traditions and disputed Classical and non-Classical legacies.
