The Occitan War(ISBN=9780521872409) pdf 在线 2025 epub 免费 书籍 下载

　　In 1209 Simon of Montfort led a war against the Cathars of

Languedoc after Pope Innocent III preached a crusade condemning

them as heretics. The suppression of heresy became a pretext for a

vicious war that remains largely unstudied as a military conflict.

Laurence Marvin here examines the Albigensian Crusade as military

and political history rather than religious history and traces

these dimensions of the conflict through to Montfort's death in

1218. He shows how Montfort experienced military success in spite

of a hostile populace, impossible military targets, armies that

dissolved every forty days, and a pope who often failed to support

the crusade morally or financially. He also discusses the supposed

brutality of the war, why the inhabitants were for so long

unsuccessful at defending themselves against it, and its impact on

Occitania. This original account will appeal to scholars of

medieval France, the Crusades and medieval military history.
