The Cutting Edge of the Poet’s Sword not only contributes to our understanding of literary history, it also illuminates a broad spectrum of religiosity and the role of political propaganda in the anti-Frankish Muslim struggle. Latiff shows how poets, often used by the ruling elite to promote their rule, emphasised the centrality of Islam’s holy sites to inspire the Muslim response to the occupation and later reconquest of Jerusalem, and expressed some surprising views of Frankish Christians.The Muslim World in the Age of the Crusades03.Arabic poetry750-1258History and criticismCrusades in literatureJihad in literatureRevolutionary poetry, ArabicHistory and criticismWar and literatureIslamic EmpireElectronic books.Arabic poetryHistory and criticism.Crusades in literature.Jihad in literature.Revolutionary poetry, ArabicHistory and criticism.War and literatureIslamic Empire.892.7/13409Latiff Osman913331NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910480274903321The cutting edge of the poet's sword2184953UNINA
