Holy War, Martyrdom, and Terror: Christianity, Violence, and the West - Haney Foundation Series
Philippe Buc
Holy War, Martyrdom, and Terror examines the ways Christian theology has shaped centuries of violence from Christianity's first centuries up to our own day, through the crusades, the French Revolution, and more recent American wars.
Marc Notes: 'Holy War, Martyrdom, and Terror' examines the ways that Christian theology has shaped centuries of conflict from the Jewish-Roman War of late antiquity through the First Crusade, the French Revolution, and up to the Iraq War. By isolating one factor among the many forces that converge in war, the essential tenets of Christian theology, Philippe Buc locates continuities in major episodes of violence perpetrated over the course of two millennia.
