[incorrect-koh-posts]

Other than leper king and his heirs which book would you recommend for research on Baldwin iv of Jerusalem?

All right then, buckle up for some nerdery! 😁

I will preface this by saying that I am not a total expert on Baldwin and haven't done a colossal amount of research specifically on him. I could chew your ear off prattling on about the general world of the crusader kingdoms, their politics, and about Raymond III of Tripoli and Sibylla of Jerusalem in particular, but Baldwin isn't my main interest here. Also, as far as I know, Hamilton's study is the only longer academic work centred solely around Baldwin. Hence, in order to learn more about your fav and the world he lived in, I'd recommend reading a little more broadly. Being a king, he is featured (at least in some capacity) in most publications that deal with the Latin kingdoms in the latter half of the 12th century.

That said, have a list:

Piers D. Mitchell: "Leprosy and the Case of King Baldwin IV of Jerusalem: Microbacterial Disease in the Crusader States of the 12th and 13th Centuries", International Journal of Leprosy, vol. 61, no. 2, 1993, pp. 283-91. Pretty self-explanatory. You can find this article on the internet; Mitchell also has a few other publications that deal with medicine in the crusader states, so you might find some additional Baldwin stuff there as well.

Elma Brenner: "Recent Perspectives on Leprosy in Medieval Western Europe", History Compass, vol. 8, no. 5, 2010, pp. 388-406. Has a little bit on Baldwin, might be useful if you want to find out more about how the disease was regarded by his contemporaries.

Helen J. Nicholson: Sybil, Queen of Jerusalem, 1186-1190. Routledge, 2022. This is a really good and really recent one that I was lucky enough to find in my uni library. Of course Sibylla-centred, but gives a good overview of the politics in Outremer and of course has passages about Baldwin in it. Also look into some of Nicholson's other publications if you're interested in the role of women in the context of crusading.

Kevin James Lewis: The Counts of Tripoli and Lebanon in the Twelfth Century: Sons of Saint Gilles. Routledge, 2017. Obviously mostly a Raymond-centric source, but it is also relatively recent and has a good chunk on Baldwin in the chapter where Lewis talks about Raymond's time as Baldwin's regent.

Joshua Prawer: Crusader Institutions. Oxford University Press, 1980. More politics to be found here, but very well put together. Prawer was an extremely prolific scholar where the history of the Latin East and the crusades was concerned, so - once again: if you're interested, look up his other works.

Jonathan Riley-Smith: The Oxford Illustrated History of the Crusades, Oxford University Press, 1997. Good overview that goes into detail about the mentality among crusaders and aspects of daily life. Again, Riley-Smith is one of the authorities in the field, so looking into his bibliography might be worth a shot.

If you're into military history, the works of Benjamin Z. Kedar, John France - or, if you want something more dated, R.C. Smail - might be of interest to you. They mostly cover general points of Frankish and Muslim warfare or the Battle of Hattin in particular (other than in Hamilton or in some of the primary sources from the crusader period, I've never come across an article on the Battle of Montgisard), but might be helpful if you want to get a feel for what life was like at the time.

Hans-Eberhard Mayer is also definitely worth a look as a scholar, even though his works are a bit older now. However, I'm not sure how much of his stuff you can find in translation - I've only read him in German.

For the physical setting of crusader-period Jerusalem and the material culture, I very heartily recommend two works written or edited by Adrian J. Boas: Jerusalem in the Time of the Crusades: Society, Landscape and Art in the Holy City under Frankish Rule (Routledge, 2001) and The Crusader World (Routledge, 2016). I consult both of these frequently for world-building in my fic writing.

If you want something on the general concept of the knight / chivalry, Maurice Keen's Chivalry (Yale University Press, 2005) might be a good start. For a detailed analysis of medieval courtly culture, I recommend Joachim Bumke's Courtly Culture: Literature and Society in the High Middle Ages (2000, English translation by Thomas Dunlap). That thing was invaluable when I was writing my BA thesis. And if you'd like to know more about the literary life of the crusaders, there is a recent publication called Literature of the Crusades (Cambridge University Press, 2019) edited by Simon Parsons and Linda M. Paterson that I also found rather good.

For fashion: The various Osprey Military History books are a good choice if you want visual representations of knightly dress. There's also a collection of essays called Encountering Medieval Textiles and Dress: Objects, Texts, Images (Palgrave Macmillan, 2002) edited by Désirée Koslin and Janet Snyder, which is one of the better ones I've found, as most books about medieval fashion focus mostly on later centuries. This one might be a bit hard to get through, though, if you don't have some kind of background knowledge about medieval texts or architecture.

If you want something less strictly academic and more in the vein of popular history, you might want to try James Reston's Warriors of God (2002) or the much more dated but rather fanboy-ish The Crusades: A History (also sometimes titled The Dream and The Tomb) by Robert Payne, which is very pro-Baldwin.

Other than that, I'll link you an older post about fictional depictions of Baldwin and other assorted good bois and girls from KoH. I hope this will scratch the Baldwin itch for you!

And: If anyone has more suggestions, of course do feel free to add them!

3 & 9 for the book ask, if they’re not already answered!

3. What were your top five books of the year?

city of last chances by adrian tchaikovsky

giovanni's room by james baldwin

bring up the bodies by hilary mantel

invisible cities by italo calvino

annihilation by jeff vandermeer

9. Did you get into any new genres?

yes! historial fiction! which i have of course read before, but got really into this year because four of us in our friend group decided to challange ourselves this nanowrimo to write a gay historical fiction novel and we all did it! (well. we all hit 50k, i think only one or two concretely finished their novel) in preparation i read several good and bad historical fiction novels, read a lot of non fiction about my time period, and tried to learn a lot about the genre and i thoroughly enjoyed myself. i was also so embarrassed and shy about it to begin with but i have come around to being super proud of it.

1600-1700 names list

I been collecting names for my decades challenged and I decided to share it. It has a bunch of different names in alphabetical order. 

Not 100% sure how accurate these names are as I’m not a historian , but I like them. 

Some names are “nicknames” or a variation of the same name, like Faye is from Faith ,Orelia is from Aurelia and Sisely from Cecilia/Cecily. 

Some names are Shakespearean , Puritan/Virtue names , American Colonial and perhaps a Arthurian here and there.

Book Review: TRIBUNaL by Dave Jeffery (A Quiet Apocalypse Book 4)

Book Review: TRIBUNaL by Dave Jeffery (A Quiet Apocalypse Book 4)

Acclaimed British author, Dave Jeffery returns us to the captivating, dark and thought provoking world of A Quiet Apocalypse with the 4th book in the series called TRIBUNaL to be released via Demain Publishing on the 30th of June, 2022. Almost as dark and depressing as the scenarios called up in the A Quiet Apocalypse series is the fact that TRIBUNaL is set to be the end of the series. All good…

[a-reader-and-a-writer]

So, I just recently hit 1k followers on both this blog and my SFW blog, @a-reader-and-a-writer-for-all. When I started my blog back in October, I wasn't sure if I would ever get 100 followers, so this is so mindblowing to me. I cannot put into words how much the support, kindness, and encouragement everyone has shown me and my fics in the past 8 months have meant to me. So, I wanted to do a little event to celebrate this milestone!

Starting today, I will be accepting requests for the challenge and I will start posting the fics on July 1st. You can send them in through asks or DMs but please make some indication it is for the follower celebration.

Send me up to 3 gifs/pictures of a character listed below and I will write a fic based on/ connecting them. The images can be from different movies/episodes/mediums as long as they are of the same character. I will also accept group or team images such as The Avengers, The Suicide Squad, Top Gun team, etc. for a group fic. Feel free to specify a theme for the fic (angst, fluff, whump, hurt/comfort, angst with a happy ending, etc)

I am feeling up to the challenge so feel free to send images that seem to go together or seem wildly different or unconnected!

PS. I understand that asks on anon won't let you send pictures, but feel free to send me links to images or gif sets because I still want those who prefer anon to be able to participate! 😁
