About this book
This book features a collection of essays that focus on the Hospitallers' relations with others through military, social, and political channels within the broader Euro?Mediterranean region. Centered on Hospitaller settlement and activities in Rhodes and their European priories, this study highlights the various encounters made possible by the far?reaching and international character of the Order's activities. In addition to examining Hospitaller encounters and relationships with those outside the Order, this collection also includes essays that explore the internal workings of Hospitaller priories and the Central Convent of the Order during periods of change and expansion, revealing a propensity for continual adaptation and reinvention. Hospitallers and Others: Military and Social Encounters will appeal to scholars and students alike, providing a deeper understanding of the social, military, spiritual, and institutional transformation of the Hospitallers during the medieval period.
