A History of the Counts of Brienne traces the origins of the Brienne dynasty from the tenth century, as counts of a small, minor county in the Champagne region of France, to prominent crusaders in the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth centuries, one of whom would go on to become king of Jerusalem and emperor of Constantinople. In the late 1090s, impelled by the words of Pope Urban II, thousands of Europeans took up arms and set out from Western Europe to reclaim Jerusalem from the Saracens. Jerusalem was recaptured, and the ruling classes of the Latin East were formed by nobles, predominantly French, who established themselves as kings, princes and magnates. After the success of the First Crusade, word of the defeat of the Saracens and the opportunity for upward mobility in the Holy Land began to spread rapidly across the West and additional waves of crusaders and settlers made their way to the Levant. French dynasties, usually titled, landed families of some sway, such as the Lusignan, the Montlhery, the Montfort, and the Brienne, amongst others, were attracted to the Holy Land for various reasons: some due to religiosity, others for the opportunity to further increase their landholdings and wealth. In A History of the Counts of Brienne, Dana Celeste Robinson brings into focus the importance of family, tradition of crusading and pilgrimage, and political advancement through marriage in the Latin East to the Brienne and other families at a time when the seeds of geo-political unrest were planted: its fruit an unfortunate legacy as the struggle for peace in the Holy Land continues today. In a panoramic assessment using archival research, this comprehensive history of the counts of Brienne and their origins serves as an original work of scholarship on the preeminence of localized power in Medieval France and the ascendancy of dynastic influence in the Holy Land during the age of the crusades.

The first multivolume encyclopedia to document the history of one of the most influential religious movements of the Middle Ages—the Crusades. The Crusades: An Encyclopedia surveys all aspects of the crusading movement from its origins in the 11th century to its decline in the 16th century. Unlike other works, which focus on the eastern Mediterranean region, this expansive four-volume encyclopedia also includes the struggle of Christendom against its enemies in Iberia, Eastern Europe, and the Baltic region, and also covers the military orders, crusades against fellow Christians, heretics, and more. This work includes comprehensive entries on personalities such as Godfrey of Bouillon, who refused the title "King of Jerusalem," and St. Bernard of Clairvaux, who tore up his own clothing to make symbols of the cross for crusaders, as well as key events, countries, places, and themes that shed light on everything from the propaganda that inspired crusading warriors to the ways in which they fought. Special coverage of topics such as taxation, pilgrimage, warfare, chivalry, and religious orders give readers an appreciation of the multifaceted nature of these "holy wars."

From their humble beginnings in Jerusalem as a late eleventh-century hospital and an early twelfth-century pilgrim escort, Hospitallers and Templars evolved into international military religious orders, engaged in numerous charitable, economic, and military pursuits. At the heart of each of these communities, and in many ways a mirror of their growth and adaptability, was a central convent led by several high officials and headquartered first in Jerusalem (to 1187), then in Acre (1191-1291), and then on Cyprus (since 1291), from where the Hospitallers conquered Rhodes (1306-1310), and where fate in the form of a heresy trial caught up with the Templars. The history, organization, and personnel of these two central convents to 1310 are the subject of this comparative study.
