  18. Topic 2: Conflict and Significance of the Crusades

  19. Vocabulary Crusades: a series of Holy Wars between Muslims and Christians Holy Land: the area of Palestine held spiritually important to Christians, Muslims, and Jews Pilgrimage: journey to a sacred area for those seeking to show their piety, fulfill vows, or gain absolution for sins

  20. Beginnings • The Byzantine Empire was under attack by Muslims in 1093 • The Byzantine Emperor asked for help from Western Europe, specifically Pope Urban II. • Pope Urban II launched the Crusades in 1095 • He issued a call for a “Holy War” to gain control over the Holy Lands • Pope Urban II hoped to unite the Roman and Byzantine churches

  21. Economic Effects of the Crusades • Gaining control of the Holy Lands would bring wealth • Merchants profited from financing and assisting with the pilgrimages • Merchants sought to control the trade from the Middle East and India

  22. Social Effects of the Crusades • The Church (Pope) and kings saw the Crusades as an opportunity to send quarreling knights on a common goal  Take back the Holy Lands • Crusaders believed they would have a place in heaven because of their participation • By the end of the Crusades the Feudal structure was weakened

  23. Political Effects • United different groups in conquests of the Holy Lands • Conquest of land was also a reason for the lesser nobility to participate in the Crusades • Neither group actually “won” the Crusades.

  24. Lasting Impact of Crusades • Showed the power of the Church to summons a call to free the Holy Lands • Merchants were able to expand trade that benefited both Christians and Muslims • Failure of Crusades lessened the power of the pope • Weakened the feudal nobility and increased the power of kings • Huge fortunes were lost and the fall of Constantinople weakened the Byzantine Empire • Left legacy of bitterness and hatred between Christians and Muslims • Left a legacy of less religious tolerance both for Christians, Muslims and Jews

  28. Document D “…The Crusaders had been inspired at least in part by commercial motives, those 200 years of constant coming and going between East and West obviously gave trade a tremendous boost. Merchants, studying the itineraries [routes] of the cross-bearers [crusaders] who paved the way, discovered the most direct routes between eastern Mediterranean ports and the heart of Europe. “ • “Legacy of the Crusades,” Aramco World

  29. Topic 3: The Protestant Reformation

  30. The Printing Revolution • 1455— Johann Gutenberg (German) printed the first complete edition of the Bible using the first printing press in the West • Led to rapid spread of ideas

  32. Abuses in the Church • Influence of the Renaissance- focus on the individual and wealth • Sold indulgences

  33. Martin Luther • German monk • 1517—Luther posted the 95 Theses • Good deeds are not necessary for salvation—it is based on faith alone. • The Bible is the only source of religious truth. (Not the Pope or priests.) • the Church asked Luther to recant but he refused • He argued that Christians should reject the authority of Rome

  34. The Spread of Protestantism Thanks to the printing press, Luther’s ideas spread quickly & gained much support for the following reasons: • some saw the reforms as an answer to church corruption • German princes saw it as a way to throw off the rule of the Church
