ROYALTY & NOBILITY

Dr Susan Edgington

Susan B. Edgington is an Honorary Senior Research Fellow at Queen Mary University of London. She has published a number of editions and translations relating to the First Crusade and the early years of the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem, and a biography of Baldwin I (Routledge, 2019).

About the event

Baldwin of Boulogne was successively a First Crusader, the first Latin Count of Edessa, and king of Jerusalem (1100–1118). He married three times: as crusader, as count, and then as king. His wives were given very little attention in contemporary chronicles and so this is an attempt to restore to them their own biographies.

Walter the Chancellor's The Antiochene Wars: A Translation and Commentary

Edgington, Susan B.

£30.59 £33.99

First published in 1999, this edition of Walter the Chancellor's account of the wars of the Antiochenes against the Muslims in the early twelfth century is a vivid first-hand account of a dramatic yet less well-known period in the history of the northern Crusader states, and an important balance to the more usual focus on Jerusalem.
