Our podcast will discuss the general and assumed role of women during the crusades era. In addition, we dig into more into detail on few women who proved to go above and beyond the general assumption. More specifically in the roles of Eleanor of Aquitaine, Shajar Al-Durr, and Anna Komnene.

In this episode of ‘Byzantine-Crusader Relations’ we look at how and why the First Crusade failed in its goal to reunite the Eastern and Western Christian churches. We discover that this failure was largely due to different expectations and goals on both sides.

We all know the Crusades as being some of the most violent and famous holy wars in history, often depicted as a fight between Christianity and Islam. But what if the Byzantine Christians and Muslim Empires were in cohoots? Find out more on this in this edition of “Crusade Convos” where we explore and discuss Savvas Neocleous’ research on the conspiracies behind the Crusades.

This podcast focuses on the Children’s crusade and the analysis that
Gary Dickson provides in it. The children’s crusade is often shrouded
in mystery, when it in fact is a simple case where children who wanted
to make a difference made it to Italy before dispersing.
