The 'Gesta' defends not only hierocratic conceptions but the Danish hegemonic project in the Baltic - which was grounded in the crusade movements. Such movements are presented through complex language and imagery about a glorious past brought to bear on the projects in the thirteenth century while internal tensions strengthen the monarchic and ecclesiastical institutions. 410 0$aCARMEN monographs and studies. 606 $aCrusades 606 $aHegemony$zDenmark$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aClergy$xPolitical activity$zDenmark$xHistory$yTo 1500 607 $aDenmark$xHistory$yTo 1241 607 $aBaltic Sea Region$xChurch history 607 $aDenmark$xChurch history 607 $aDenmark$xKings and rulers$xHistory 607 $aBaltic Sea Region$xHistory 610 $aChristianity in Scandinavia. 610 $aDenmark. 610 $aMedieval Scandinavia. 610 $aNorthern Crusades. 615 0$aCrusades. 615 0$aHegemony$xHistory 615 0$aClergy$xPolitical activity$xHistory 676 $a948.9/015 700 $aMuceniecks$b Andre?$01667696 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910807960703321 996 $aSaxo Grammaticus$94027722 997 $aUNINA
