Book Synopsis Viewing the Morea by : Sharon E. J. Gerstel
Book excerpt: Viewing the Morea focuses on the late medieval Morea (Peloponnese), beginning with the bold attempt of Western knights to establish a kingdom on its soil. The authors explore how the groups of this contested region--Crusaders, Orthodox villagers, and Venetians--interacted, asserted identity, and recollected the ancient history of the Peloponnese.
