Book Synopsis Templars, Hospitallers, and Teutonic Knights by : Helen J. Nicholson
Book excerpt: A study of how the major military religious orders of the 12th and 13th century were viewed by the rulers, the clergy, the laity, and themselves. Also considers the representation of them in literary sources and legend. Other orders are also mentioned when there is information about attitudes toward them, but by far the most evidence is for the three. Adapted from Nicholson's 1989 Ph.D. thesis for the University of Leicester. Acidic paper. Distributed in the US by St. Martin's Press. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
