The contributors analyze cultures that lay outside Charlemagne's limes and the frontiers of the Byzantine Empire, to consider a region stretching from the Balkans to the Baltic and Scandinavia. The volume considers clerics as military leaders and propagandists, the role of Christian ritual and doctrine in warfare, and the adaptation and transformation of indigenous military cultures. It uncovers new information on perceptions of war and analyzes how local practices were incorporated into clerical narratives, enabling the reader to achieve a complete understanding of the period. 410 0$aBeyond medieval Europe. 606 $aChristianity and politics$zEurope, Eastern$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aChristianity and politics$zScandinavia$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aChurch and state$zEurope, Eastern$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aChurch and state$zScandinavia$xHistory$yTo 1500 607 $aEurope, Eastern$xHistory, Military 607 $aScandinavia$xHistory, Military 610 $aBaltic region. 610 $aChristianity and War. 610 $aEast Central Europe. 610 $aEcclesiastical History. 610 $aHoly War. 610 $aMedieval Scandinavia. 610 $aMilitary History. 610 $aNorthern and Eastern Europe. 610 $aWarrior-Bishops. 610 $amedieval clergy. 610 $amedieval warfare. 615 0$aChristianity and politics$xHistory 615 0$aChristianity and politics$xHistory 615 0$aChurch and state$xHistory 615 0$aChurch and state$xHistory 676 $a947.000902 702 $aKotecki$b Rados?aw 702 $aJensen$b Carsten Selch 702 $aBennett$b Stephen 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910826368803321 996 $aChristianity and war in Medieval East Central Europe and Scandinavia$94069353 997 $aUNINA
