'The terrible news' : the reaction of Christendom to the Fall of Jerusalem (1187). 330 $aGateway to the Heavenly City presents a penetrating analysis of the attitudes of Latin Christendom towards Jerusalem in the period from the First Crusade to the Muslim capture of the city in 1187. Sylvia Schein starts by exploring the changes in the Western image of Jerusalem, first as the goal of the crusade, then after its conquest. She examines the theories used to justify the conquest and rule of the Holy City and the attitudes of the papacy towards this new rival centre of sanctity. Subsequent chapters describe the new character of Jerusalem's sanctity as the city of the Old and New Testaments, as the earthly gateway to the heavenly city, and in apocalyptic terms as the centre of the world and the place where the events of the end of the world would unroll. The reaction to the fall of crusader Jerusalem in 1187 is the subject of the final chapter. Based on a detailed examination of the source materials, from poetry and song to chronicles and charters, this book paints a clear picture of the place of the Earthly and the Heavenly Jerusalem in Latin Christendom. 410 0$aChurch, faith, and culture in the Medieval West. 606 $aPublic opinion$zEurope 606 $aChristians$zEurope$xAttitudes 607 $aJerusalem$xHistory$yLatin Kingdom, 1099-1244 607 $aJerusalem$xHistory$xReligious aspects$xPublic opinion 615 0$aPublic opinion 615 0$aChristians$xAttitudes. 676 $a956.94/4203 700 $aSchein$b Sylvia.$0593344 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910966547703321 996 $aGateway to the heavenly city$94473237 997 $aUNINA
