Here we see the Battle of Crécy across the cultural landscape of Europe - through chronicles and letters, through poems and prophecies, through sermons and laments - enabling us to understand the events of 26 August 1346 like never before. Together with other experts, the editors have gathered, edited, and translated over 80 fourteenth-century sources concerning this fascinating and important conflict - sources from Bohemia to France, from Italy to Wales - many here printed or translated for the first time. Original essays provide historical context and literary background to help interpret the battle in light of this new material. Among the discoveries: despite its fame, the location of the battle has been misidentified for centuries, and the actions of the men on both sides of the bloodied field have been completely misunderstood. This unparalleled accumulation of material means that the Battle of Crécy will never be seen the same again.Liverpool historical casebooks series.Crécy, Battle of, Crécy-en-Ponthieu, France, 1346SourcesHundred Years' War, 1339-1453CampaignsFranceSourcesFranceHistory, Military1328-1589SourcesGreat BritainHistory, Military1066-1485SourcesCrécy, Battle of, Crécy-en-Ponthieu, France, 1346Hundred Years' War, 1339-1453Campaigns944.025420944262Livingston Michael1975-DeVries Kelly1956-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910828458003321The battle of Crécy3998390UNINA
