The volume considers the plurality and diversity of ideas of the Crusade in the late Middle Ages and the Early Modern epoch and sheds light on the actors and groups of actors who conceived ideas of a Crusade. The ‘Crusade’ is not primarily understood as an essentialist category or as a distinct type of conflict, but reconceptualized as an attribution that could serve different argumentative functions depending on context and author – for example in the context of identity construction, representation of power, raising of status or the formation of alliances.
