The Teutonic Knights pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025
William L Urban is an internationally recognised authority on the history of European warfare. He served as L Morgan Professor of History and International Studies at Monmouth College (Illinois). For several years he was editor of the Journal of Baltic Studies. He has written some two dozen scholarly books including The Teutonic Knights (2003) and Small Wars, and their Influence on the Nation State (2016)
The Teutonic Knights were powerful and ferocious advocates of holy war. Their history is suffused with crusading, campaigning and struggle. Feared by their enemies but respected by medieval Christendom, the knights and their Order maintained a firm hold over the Baltic and northern Germany and established a formidable regime which flourished across Central Europe for 300 years.
This major new book surveys the gripping history of the knights and their Order and relates their rise to power; their struggles against Prussian pagans; the series of wars against Poland and Lithuania; the clash with Alexander Nevsky’s Russia; and the gradual stagnation of the order in the fourteenth century. The book is replete with dramatic episodes - such as the battle on frozen Lake Peipus in 1242, or the disaster of Tannenberg - but focuses primarily on the knights’ struggle to maintain power, fend off incursions and raiding bands and to launch crusades against unbelieving foes. And it was the crusade which chiefly characterized and breathed life into this Holy Order.
William Urban’s narrative charts the rise and fall of the Order and, in an accessible and engaging style, throws light on a band of knights whose deeds and motives have long been misunderstood.

评分《条顿骑士团：一部军事史》威廉•厄本???????????????? 书评：我算不上一个军事迷，既然书在手上，读了就希望能够帮助自己提升一些认识。严格上称不上书评，读后所感而已。也谈不上研究，无心之言，仅就此读过。 1、这是一本跨度近400年的历史，一个宗教军事组织的历史。身...
评分传教士与武装传教 对于在世俗社会履行自己的各项使命时可否动用武力，中世纪的罗马天主教会往往犹豫不决。首先，教义要求宽恕罪人，但同时不能忘了保护受害者。所以，宽恕悔罪的强盗是一回事，对强盗行为置之不理是另一回事。类似地，教会反对教士拿起武器，鼓励信徒通过和平方...

评分还记得是高中的时候，在中学图书馆的一角翻到了售价2元人民币、诺贝尔文学奖得主、波兰裔作家显克维奇的小说《洪流》，很厚的32开本，泛黄的书页，盖满归还期限的封底，这些都丝毫没有影响到这本小说的精彩程度，继洪流之后，读完了他的《火与剑》、《十字军骑士》，至今还能回...
