The Crusades Through Arab Eyes
About This Novel
In Western Europe, the Crusades ushered in economic and cultural innovation; but in the East, the war led to centuries of decline and cultural isolation. To understand the root causes of the Middle East problems and the rise and fall of civilizations in the Eastern and Western worlds, the Crusades are a history worth studying. This book provides readers with "another window" to view the Crusades from an Arab perspective, to see the situation in the Arab world at that time and the feelings of Arabs. Amin Maalouf wrote "The Crusades in the Eyes of the Arabs" based on Arab general history, local chronicles and Western historical materials. The writing is smooth and interesting, which can arouse the resonance of readers. As an Arab writer originally from Lebanon, the book shows the author's unique historical perspective. After the book was published in French, it caused a sensation in Europe. It is no exaggeration to say that the author has become famous.
