Islamic Empire Mamluk SultanateMuhammad I & al-Zahir Rukn al-Din Baybars I Lot of 3 AR Dirhams.During the period in which this coin is dated, 20 August August , Christian Europe launched the final crusades into the Holy Lands, largely in response to Baybars' capture of Antioch in . Louis IX of France (the latter 'St. Louis') called for an Eighth Crusade in , but it was not until the fall of Antioch that he and his brother, Charles of Anjou, were able to gather the requisite forces. The army landed on the African coast in July , but almost immediately most of the men fell ill due to the poor conditions. Louis soon died, and by 30 October, Charles called off the siege of Tunis, effectively ending the Crusade. Baybars intended on sending forces to help the Muslim forces, but decided not to upon hearing of Louis' death. Meanwhile, Edward I of England gathered forces to assist the Eighth Crusade, but arrived as it ended. Nonetheless, he, along with Charles of Anjou, continued on to Acre, marking the beginning of the Ninth Crusade. Edward arrived in Acre in May , just as Baybars was beginning to besiege Tripoli, the only other city remaining in the hands of the Crusaders. Baybars was forced to end his siege as the Crusaders were able to effectively disrupt his lines of communication to Egypt. Also, Edward formed an alliance with the Ilkhans, who began attacking Baybars' allies in Aleppo, but their advances were no more than raids and had no lasting effect. Over the fall and winter months, little territory changed hands, and both sides eventually entered into negotiations for a long-lasting peace treaty. The negotiations nearly failed due to an assassination attempt on Edward's life, but the death of his father, Henry III, necessitated his return to England, so he completed a hasty treaty and withdrew, leaving Baybars' power in the region relatively unscathed by the Crusade.ATTENTION PLEASE: Average shipping time day !!! ____________________________________________ Please check out my other listings.

The Medieval Mind: Hispanic Studies in Honour of Alan

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: MacPherson, Ian / Penny, Ralph, PUBLISHER: Tamesis Books, Distinguished scholars from both sides of the Atlantic make a major contribution to medieval literary studies in contributions ranging from early epic to Fernando de Rojas. Studies on cuaderna via' verse and the poets of the cancionero' figure prominently, as do the Libro de buen amor' and Celestina'; these are complemented by individual essays on texts outside the mainstream, on the language and versification of the period, on the prose writers of the fifteenth century, and on literary activity in Catalonia, Galicia and Portugal. The collection demonstrates the range of interest and approach characteristic of recent Hispanic scholarship, and provides new insights into the medieval mind at work in the Iberian peninsula. IAN MACPHERSON is former Professor of Spanish, University of Durham; RALPH PENNY is Professor of Romance Philology, Queen Mary and Westfield College, University of London. Studies in Honour of Professor Alan Deyermond, Queen Mary and Westfield College, University of London.
