The English Romance in Time

Transforming Motifs from Geoffrey of Monmouth to the Death of Shakespeare

By: Fellow and Tutor in English Helen Cooper,Helen Cooper

The great story motifs of romance were transmitted directly from the Middle Ages to the age of print in an abundance of editions. Spenser and Shakespeare assumed a familiarity with them and therefore exploited it, with new texts aimed at both elite and popular audiences

A Brief History of the Knights Templar

By: Helen Nicholson

Much has been written about the Knights Templar in recent years. A leading specialist in the history of this legendary medieval order now writes a full account of the Knights of the Order of the Temple of Solomon, to give them their full title, bringing the latest findings to a general audience. Putting many of the myths finally to rest, Nicholson recounts a new history of these storm troopers of the papacy, founded during the crusades but who got so rich and influential that they challenged the power of kings.

The Knights Hospitaller

By: Helen J. Nicholson,Helen Nicholson

This short study of the history of the Order of St John of Jerusalem, Rhodes and Malta, also known as the Knights Hospitaller, is intended as an introduction to the Order for academics working in other fields, as well as the interested general reader. Beginning with a consideration of the origins of the Order as a hospice for pilgrims in Jerusalem in the eleventh century, it traces the Hospitaller's development into a military order during the first part of the 12th century, and its military activities on the frontiers of Christendom in the eastern Mediterranean, Spain and eastern Europe during the middle ages and into early modern period: its role in crusades and in wars against non-Christians on land and at sea, as well as its role in building and maintaining fortresses.
