An online evening lecture in partnership with the St John Historical Society.

This paper considers how historical writers in the Crusader States constructed cultural identities through their writings and whether we might view this as an early form of colonialism.

Dr Andrew Buck is Lecturer in Medieval History at Cardiff University. He has published widely on the history of the Crusades and the Latin East. Currently he is preparing a monograph on William of Tyre’s account of the First Crusade and embarking on a project to consider medieval notions of colonialism.
