Description
"The Deeds of God Through the Franks" by Abbot of Nogent-sous-Coucy Guibert is a narrative of the First Crusade written between 1107 and 1108. Dissatisfied with an earlier eyewitness account he considered crude, Guibert rewrote the crusade's history with elevated language and inserted his own perspectives. Though never having witnessed the events himself, he drew from conversations with returning crusaders to create a work that functions as history, moral instruction, prophecy, and allegory—revealing how the crusade was received and understood in medieval France.
