Andrews presents the first ever in-depth study of the history written by this Armenian priest, who lived in Edessa (modern-day Urfa in Turkey) around the turn of the twelfth century and was an eyewitness to the First Crusade and the establishment of the Latin East. Although the Chronicle is known as an extremely valuable source of information for the eleventh- and early twelfth-century Near East, neither its guiding structure nor U?hayec?i's motivation in writing it have ever been clear to modern historians. This study elucidates the prophetic framework within which the text was written, and demonstrates how that framework has influenced U?hayec?i's understanding of the time in which he lived. 410 0$aThe Medieval Mediterranean$v108. 606 $aCrusades$yFirst, 1096-1099$vSources 607 $aLatin Orient$xHistory 607 $aArmenia$xHistory$y428-1522 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCrusades 676 $a956.62014 700 $aAndrews$b Tara L$g(Tara Lee),$f1978-$0977613 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155552503321 996 $aMatt'eos Urhayec'i and his chronicle$92227241 997 $aUNINA
